This Indian Ocean luxury 5 star boutique beach hotel in Kenya is everyone’s favorite and our guests just keep coming back for more. An iconic tropical paradise on the Kenyan coast sitting right in the middle of the pristine Watamu Marine National Park with its idyllic white sand beach and turquoise waters. The exceptional personal service and sincere charm of this established hotel has come to represent Kenyan coastal luxury to so many travellers for close to 30 years. And it’s just got even better with a mega makeover. There is so much to do here – learn to kite-surf; get your PADI certificate, take a sunset dhow cruise on Mida Creek, play a round of golf on the nearby world class golf course, Vipingo Ridge; or go on safari for a few days in Tsavo or the Maasai Mara. If that all sounds a little too energetic, relax around the pool with a good book as you work your way through our cocktail menu.

Hemingways Residences embraces a modern and relaxed coastal lifestyle. The magnificent view of Watamu beach and the Marine Park is at the core of the concept with the apartments all featuring open plan living and dining areas with large and expansive terraces to make the most of the wonderful coastal climate that Watamu offers. The interiors have been designed using light and clean materials which are easy to maintain and are long lasting whilst the furnishings offer the home comforts you’d expect in a 5 star hotel.
