Internet was scetchy at times but I learned that this was due to the provider.

A dream destination. A small boutique hotel with exceptional interior design and decor. Great breakfast and very personal service.

The rooms need a luttle renovation

The hotel is pretty about 900m from the beach. You just need to cross the main street. The pool and outfoor is exceptional. The staff, esoecially Mombasa is wonderful.

Its a very nice authentic cosy hotel. I think in total 8 rooms. Rooms are looking towards the pool. The pool is a goid size to swim.Its not on the beach, but you can walk to the beach, its inly a km away. The rooms are clean, sometimes we did not have hot water, but once we told the staff the water was ok. There is a safe in the room, airconditioning, moswuito nets. Mombasa was a grsat host and tried everything in his power to make us feel welcome and comfortable. I even got gluten free pancakes for breakfast. All in all it was a wonderful experience.

We informed the staff that there should be serious work on the water pipes and water pressure as the issue has been preventing water in the shower to run properly. If the owner's dog has a bad night, sleep can suffer.

This was our second visit and we thoroughly enjoyed the quietness and beauty of the place. African House is a very special place thanks to the utmost care being taken to curate the surroundings and make it like a museal place. For anyone enjoying a retreat away from the hassle of urban life, that's it.

It was a bit expensive for my budget given that it is quite far from the beach and the wifi had troubles working at the start but overall it was well worth it and a great stay.

wonderful staff, especially the security gentleman, the housekeeping and Mr. Mombasa and Steven. Thank you all so much for having me. This place is very quiet and chill, and once the wifi started working well was great. Wonderful room as well and very comfortable and nice place.

Our stay at African House was the best stay during our six weeks of travelling in Kenya. The beauty of this place has been praised by others and needs no further additions. There is no other place which we have found so conducive to rest and read. We also enjoyed the perfect atmosphere and surroundings at the resort for reflection and conversations. While we dislike most of the resort typical ambiente of beach hotels, African House has a character of its own, away from beach tourism, and we were barely tempted to leave it during the week of our stay there.

The bed was too hard. Otherwise everything was fine.

Great to sleep in a place that felt like a private museum of local arts and relics. Big toilet. Great breakfast.
