Hemingways Watamu
Watamu Beach
This lovely boutique hotel sits along the pristine white sands of Watamu Beach. It’s about 120 km from Mombasa and around 25 km to Malindi, which is where the closest airport it. This elegant hotel seamlessly blends modern comfort with the natural beauty of its surroundings. With a history dating back to the 1980s, the hotel is named after the famous American author Ernest Hemingway, who was an avid adventurer and big-game fisherman.
The hotel offers a range of accommodation options, from spacious, ocean-facing rooms to luxurious private residences. Each room is designed with a traditional Swahili theme and private balconies allow you to soak in the breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean and the lush tropical gardens.
There’s a swimming pool, a choice of restaurants, a bar, a spa, and big game fishing can be organised, as well as exploring the nearby Watamu Marine National Park, which is claimed to be one of the best snorkelling and diving spots in the world. The hotel manages to blend comfort, and adventure, making it an ideal destination for travellers seeking a relaxing retreat in one of Kenya's most beautiful coastal locations.

How our Tent Ratings work
These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.
It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world.
To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
High in both quality and luxury of experience, and property must have ‘wowed’ us on many levels.
This is our benchmark for excellent service and experience, location and /or activities.
Good relative value, excellent location and/or experience, and offering an ideal base for exploring the area.
Budget-focused stopover property, sometimes it’s the ideal location on a driving itinerary.
Don’t be put off, these stays are comfortable and a perfect pit stop on a journey where the choices may be limited.
