Had an amazing stay at The One watamu earlier this year. I was there alone years ago and went back with my family this year and I must say, they did not disappoint. The food was amazing and the service incredible. They also had a lot of fun activities for the kids which the kids enjoyed. We’ll definitely be back.

Abbiamo conosciuto questo posto affidandoci ad una guida locale "Macinque5"e siamo rimaste molto entusiaste. Il giovane driver ha saputo consigliare al meglio le esperienze e le attività da fare... ci ha introdotte nella vita delle persone del posto, rendendo interessante la nostra giornata, non il solito tour! Consiglio vivamente di affidarsi a lui. Data dell'esperienza: agosto 2025
