Watamu Beach Hotels & Resorts

Overview

Watamu beach hotels and resorts

Watamu, just south of Malindi on the north coast, is known for its clear water, coral gardens and quiet bays. Spot Kenya Tours and Safaris has a local office on Watamu Beach Road and shortlists Watamu hotels, resorts and villas to match your dates, budget and the style of stay you prefer.

What to do around Watamu

Snorkelling and boat trips in Watamu Marine National Park, birdwatching and creek tours at Mida Creek, walks in Arabuko Sokoke Forest, the Gede ruins and turtle conservation visits. We can add excursions to your stay.

Choosing a Watamu stay

Tell us whether you want to be on the beach, near the village restaurants, or somewhere quieter, and whether you prefer bed and breakfast, half board, full board or all inclusive. Tides affect swimming at some beaches, which we can explain when we send options.

Most guests arrive via Malindi Airport or Moi International Airport in Mombasa, and we arrange transfers on request.

Frequently asked questions

How do I book a hotel with you?

Send a quote request with your dates, number of guests, budget and preferred board basis (bed and breakfast, half board, full board or all inclusive). We check availability and send options with clear rates before you pay anything.

Can you arrange transfers to the hotel?

Yes. We can arrange airport, SGR station or city transfers to your hotel. Tell us your arrival details and number of passengers and we confirm the vehicle and price.

Can I swim at low tide in Watamu?

It depends on the bay. Some beaches have water at all tides and others are better at high tide. Tell us what matters to you and we recommend properties accordingly.
