Villa vacation rentals in Great Rift Valley

Chris and his team understand what it means to be phenomenal hosts. We felt well taken cared off from housekeeping to security as well as other accommodations that Chris provided as needed. Will definitely be booking again.

The place is super spacious, very clean, and has a great pool and outdoor space. The staff on site are wonderful. Meg and Eddy are the best hosts I’ve ever had from Airbnb and they go the extra mile on everything to make sure you have what you need, give great recommendations, and make you feel at home. Would highly recommend staying here!

Anne’s place was modern and clean. The staff was amazing and went over and beyond to accommodate us whether it came to booking tours/ excursions or something we randomly needed around the property. I would 100% recommend if you're looking for a balance between remote and relaxation but close enough to get to the main attractions of the island.

The chef Daniel , the caretaker Josphat and the rest of the team did a great job taking care of us . The food was perfect every day every meal . Thank you Daniel. Josphat showed around the beach and mombasa town . Great people.

Choosing Savanna for our getaway was the best decision we could have made. The villa was private, quiet and incredibly beautiful - even better in person than in the pictures. The staff was friendly, attentive, and professional. We were completely comfortable and relaxed knowing the entire property was clean and everything well organized. We totally loved the garden too. The place is also located near food options like Food Plus and Carrefour so we had easy access to groceries and supplies, which was a huge plus. A special shoutout to Francisca who made our stay extra special with her exceptional meals the whole time we were there. Overall, the villa exceeded our expectations, and I can't recommend it highly enough.

I mean… this place was perfect. Well appointed, spacious and obviously built for the local weather. It’s close to the beach, has a great pool, wonderful staff and excellent host. There was wifi, power, hot water consistently (better than Nairobi/Kampala!) and good kitchen stuff including sharp knives! What more can you ask for? We had three families with kids for a week and everyone enjoyed thoroughly.

Ana amazing villa to relax at the coast! I have been travelling to Diani for 25 years and Jasmin’s place really stood out due to how beautiful the villa and grounds are! It’s super quiet but on a great part of Diani beach road as you’re close to everything. The tortoise roaming around the garden was an added plus! The staff are also fantastic and made the whole stay seamless for us. Jasmin is also very quick at replying! Loved everything about Villa Kapungu - we will definitely be back!

Our family had an amazing stay at this Airbnb! Traveling with a 2-year-old can be tricky, but this spotless, well-equipped home made it effortless. Chef Steave’s meals were five-star, and John kept everything immaculate. The location was perfect; close to Malindi town and Naivas supermarket yet peaceful and safe. Plenty of space for our little one to play, and we felt at home from the start. If you want a luxurious, family-friendly getaway with top-notch service, this is the place to be!

11 of us came to stay at the villa for my friend’s hen party. It absolutely met all our expectations and more. The pool was a perfect size, dining table was fab and the rooms great. Lucy, Grace, Jane and all the staff were phenomenal and could not have done more for us. The food they cooked us was beautiful and they really helped us out by sorting extra food shopping (snacks etc) for us. The beach and all restaurants/bars are a 5 minute walk away and as a group of females we felt safe walking along the beach and back to the villa after an evening out. 100% recommend.

Ina and Msuli are very pleasant, considerate and available hosts to facilitate the stay. Always good advice, they helped us organize our activities by offering us people we trust, especially when one of us was sick. The house is nice and the people employed are charming, always ready to help. Great stay!

Absolutely beautiful! Location is perfect. The house is stunning, with plenty of space for large groups, a lovely pool and breathtaking view. The staff were amazing and took great care of us. An unforgettable holiday!

We stayed 5 nights with our family of 5 at Maji Lodge. We had a wonderful time at Natalia’s fantastic place. The location is quiet and peaceful, and if you are looking for a place without too many beach seller and nightlife noise, Matemwe is for you! From booking to finish Natalia and her team were super helpful and responsive, helping with transfers and an other questions that we had. We used her chef service for preparation of breakfast on the first two mornings which was soo worth the little extra money. They had provided the grocery shopping for that as well at a good price. The villa was beautifully decorated and well-equipped. The lady providing the daily cleaning service was so friendly and thorough - the place was spotless and so was the pool area which was looked after and cleaned throughout the day. The 24 hr security team and the generator an extra plus because you do experience power cuts at times, especially in bad weather. I can only highly recommend Maji Lodge!

We had a wonderful stay at Ibambe Villa, one of the nicest properties on the Kenyan coast. We were with two families and 4 children. Kids friendly pool, with easy and direct access to the best stretch of beach in Watamu. The house is beautiful, clean, tastefully decorated, with spacious and comfortable bedrooms. Elias and the team were very helpful. Food was amazing. Would wholeheartedly recommend Ibambe to anyone!

Come for the views, stay for the food! What a beautiful spot with tons of space to spread out. The house and grounds were gorgeous, located on a pristine beach, yet relatively private. The staff were all super helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Pool was refreshing, yet surprisingly deep. Chef Nixon made us amazing seafood dishes all week. Only draw back was the lack of A/C in the bedrooms, which most comparably priced stays offer in the area. Check out the kite surfing, SUP, and kayaking rentals right next store. During low tide, head straight out half a mile to the sandbar and enjoy hunting for starfish!

If you’re looking for a private beach with white sand and security, this villa is ideal for you. I travel frequently and often book Airbnbs, but this villa truly stands out as the best. It’s incredibly beautiful. The guards, the host, and the staff have all been exceptional. It has exceeded my initial expectations. Calister and her team have been incredibly helpful with everything. The attention to detail and the level of service here make it a remarkable experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a luxurious getaway. I’m definitely re booking once I visit Zanzibar again.

Had a wonderful stay at Capri Villa, the house was comfortable and the kids enjoyed the swimming pool all day. The host was very accommodating and shared helpful instructions on things to do. The house was kept clean on a daily basis and the host threw in additional goodies such as cakes and fruits which was very kind of him. Almost all rooms in the house had aircon and fans which was a big plus for me. Great place to stay when in Mwanza!

Kevin’s place was so great we decided to go back again for another few days, towards the end of our trip. Everything was impeccable, and Kevin was very attentive and flexible, allowing us to have a late check out which suite our travel needs perfectly. Rose cooked a few times for us this time and her food is fabulous, we highly recommend her services, plus she was very friendly, patient and very accommodating. Another great stay at Kevin’s place, it’s home away from home. Kevin a great bloke, friendly, chatty, helpful and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again and hopefully one day we get to meet Kevin in person for a beer. Thank you, Julz and Mina ☺️.

We definitely recommend this place!! Beautiful location surrounded by the mangroves, really idyllic and easy to access. 15 min walk to the beach, 5 min to Lichthouse and 2 min to the creak. Great chef and support staff that made sure we all we needed. Absolutely beautiful, great common spaces and comfortable.

We stayed at Christine's premises and from the moment we stepped into the home, we felt at peace and home away from home. Mr. Mutungi was very welcoming, gave us all the assistance we needed for the stay. Maurice the taxi person ensured our smooth movement right from the terminus and back. We had Chef Maureen who ensured we were served with sumptuous meals and a cake as we had a birthday to stay. The kids enjoyed the toys, trampoline and swimming pool which was their favourite spot. What stood out for us was the daily cleaning of the home which left the place always clean and fresh done by the humble lady Miriam. Plus Christine is flexible to allow late check out depending on circumstance. Would recommend this place for a family staycation and I'll definitely be back.

There’s not enough words to describe how great of an experience I had staying at this home. It’s exactly as advertised and the reviews about it told no lies. First of all it’s very clean to the point where you can sleep anywhere in the house and feel right at home. The kitchen and bathrooms were spotless with all the amenities you need so if you forget some essentials there’s no need to worry because the house provides it. Our house staff were so responsive to everything we needed. Anything you need just send a quick text message and they will be at your door smiling with everything you desire and ready to assist you in any way possible. I’ve traveled all over there world so when I say this place is first class treatment, I mean it. This is my second trip to DT Villas. I stayed in the house next door last year and I love how this entire property/premises is growing more like a top tier hotel resort every year but instead with rental homes. Nowhere on Zanzibar island is better, trust me

Thank you Josiah we looked the place. Chef shadrack and liz were very friendly and accommodating

A very great place. Quiet, away from all the noise. The house is very clean with full time available maids for taking care of the guests needs. Good communication from the host and it is worth a price. I will definitely come back.

Infinity pools did exceed our expectations for peace, beauty, space and privacy. It was lovely to have the pool all to myself. David and Wilson, thank you for making this memorable.
