Boasting lake views, Mida Creek Nature Camp features accommodation with a garden, a terrace and a bar, around 12 km from Watamu National Marine Park. This campground provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace.

What a hidden gem! For any lack of facilites, this camp makes up with kind people and the great services they provide. Especially for visitors who might be interested in learning about the lives of coastal Kenyans - this is an amazing opportunity to have a peek into their lives in a uniquelly authentic way. Here, you will have an experience that no hotel will provide. If you stick around at the camp during the day, they will pamper you with fresh coconuts, show you how to prepare cashews, take you canoeing to Mida (Captain Daniel is a great guide, unlike some other "guides" you will find on the coast, he actually posesses an abundance of knowlege and has great spirit - he is so fun to be around!), and show you how to make local food. A special shout-out to the ladies - their cooking is amazing! Definitely join their cooking classes or, if you are more into eating, they will make you a great supper with fresh local ingredients. This is a growing organization - for now they can provide only the essentials of facilities, but the prices are adjusted accordingly. Even if you decide to spend your nights elsewhere, be sure to visit the camp and ask about the activities they provide. You will not be disapointed - Harrison with his team will make sure to exceed your expectations. A big thank you to the whole team - we will not forget you!

Some of the best food I've eaten in Kenya so far, our room had an amazing view and didn't disappoint at all. The swimming pool was amazing and the staff are very friendly and attentive. The view of the moon rising while we were eating dinner was one of the best things I've ever witnessed. I'd recommend this to anybody in the area, it's paradise!

    Great location, quiet, beautiful large pool, verandas and outdoor lounges, air conditioning and fans, well equipped kitchen, supermarket and beach within walking distance. Fabulous breakfast and cleaning service. Opportunity for friends to rent another apartment and then eat with us. Perfect for quiet families and romantic couples. We want to come back with others.

    The rooms were spacious and comfortable and the air conditioning worked well. I highly recommend the full back. legs and feet massage offered at the hotel- I felt fantastic afterwards. It is an Egyptian style massage - with two therapists working in tandem. Also the head therapist - who is a physiotherapist - also provided me a short but very effective neck massage that took away the pain in my shoulders and neck. Happy hour cocktails at the hotel bar with great views of the beach and ocean was wonderful.

    The accommodations were pristine, offering ample space and a luxurious bed fit for royalty. The air conditioning worked flawlessly, ensuring our comfort throughout our stay. Our taste buds were tantalized by the delectable meals, with the tangy tamarind juice and succulent pork chops quickly becoming our favourites. And let's not forget the delightful English breakfasts enjoyed each morning against the backdrop of a breathtaking sea view. I'm definitely coming back.

    Nice villa. The pool was great on the hot days. Upstairs open area was a great place to relax and read. Bed was comfortable and it was good to have air conditioning in the bedroom. Having a kitchen is good.

    The location is wonderful, right on the Indian Ocean and the terrace outside the bar and restaurant make the most of it. The hotel is beautiful, the cabins are set in glorious grounds which are immaculately kept. But above all the staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel has a wonderfully welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.
