The hosts are really kind and friendly and went out of their way to make me feel welcome. You'll really enjoy this place if you're a nature lover; it's surrounded by plants, they have a pond with fish and a there's a turtle roaming around the property :), they also have a good wifi.

A fantastic 3 nights at Gaba Gaba house with Tommy and Abdalla. A beautifully decorated, impeccably kept house. Tommy is an excellent chef — his meals were sublime - and Abdalla organized everything perfectly. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

I loved this little apartment! Incredibly clean, comfy and well-stocked with anything you could need. Toiletries provided, full kitchen, cozy couch with Netflix….the Host even asked if I wanted daily cleaning! Well located with only a short walk to the main road, minimarket, restaurants…..also very easy to grab a bike/tuktuk anywhere in Diani.

The location was super: wery close to ocean, a little bit far from Watamu so it was quiet and private. The beautiful Garoda beach was 2km walking distance. There were kind and friendly community. They help me with everything I needed. It was supernice to have tasty meals together with them. You can see a Milkyway in the sky and monkeys in the morning playing on the roof. This is haven for naturelovers.

We had a magical week at Mangrove House. It’s simple but perfect, and in an absolutely ideal location. Breakfast was always delicious, and Nyevu and Harrison were so helpful and gracious. We would recommend Mangrove House to anyone looking for a unique, private, gorgeous place in Lamu.
