We couldn't have imagined a better place for the final days of our Kenya trip. We spent there 5 nights and (unusual for us) hardly left the hotel because we felt so comfortable. It's a perfect place to relax. But there are also quite a few activities that you can book additionally, such as snorkeling, kayaking or stand-up paddling. A trip to Watamu is also possible. For that you will be taken to the other side of the creek in the hotel's own boat, from there it is about 10 minutes by tuktuk to Watamu. The classic double room (Leopoard) with a small terrace was completely sufficient for us. It was very clean, new and homely, The shower was working really well and was also running warm water. We ate in the restaurant every day. The selection of dishes is varied and overall we enjoyed the food very much. The waiters and waitresses were extremely friendly and most of them were very attentive too. We would particularly like to emphasize the friendliness of the entire team! What I would like to say is also particularly positive: There are hardly any disposable products and a lot of emphasis is placed on an environmentally conscious environment!
Not really any big points of criticism, but still worth mentioning: The room was sometimes a little noisy due to the lack of fully closeable windows (there were mosquito nets and curtains), which is probably a matter of taste. Furthermore, on occasion we had to draw attention to ourselves in the restaurant to make ourselves noticed, even after sitting down for quite some time. More options on the wine menu would also be great. On the last few evenings there was only one type of white wine bottle on offer (which unfortunately wasn't really to our taste).

My partner and I spent a week at the Mida Creek and we wish we could have extended our stay! It’s a really lovely and cozy place, perfect for travelers who want to enjoy the beautiful nature with peace and quiet. Unlike the Watamu side that is always crowded, the Mida Creek feels more private. All staff is recruited locally, very friendly and knows their village the best. We also went for snorkeling twice with the captain of the hotel who has stunning skills of guiding visitors under water. It’s a lot of fun to go to Watamu by boat that’s offered by the hotel. When the water is low, you can spot starfish, puffers and others on the sandbar right behind the hotel. There are also some friendly monkeys in the mangroves. A great eco and sweet holiday resort that I won’t hesitate to book again for my next trip to Watamu.
Everything was perfect

This is a small (only six rooms, I think) hotel on the 'other side' of Mida Creek - opposite the concentration of hotels and restaurants on the northern mainland. It's and small number of other guests and secluded location on a bay in the creek means that it's calm, secluded, and feels almost like a special private home. That said, it's still super easy to get to the other side of the creek with a small private boat (free transfer once a day) that takes you there in 5-10 minutes.
The fact that the place is so small (in terms of rooms and overall number of guests) and that all rooms are around a central 'square' or open space - and hence close to each other - can mean that you feel you might be impinging on other guests' peace and quiet when you come as a family with small (and noisy) children.

Our experience at Mida Creek was wonderful. The staff were incredibly friendly and hospitable, always willing to assist with a smile. The food was delicious, and while the breakfast was well-prepared and nicely presented, adding more variety would take it to the next level. Utaratibu at its finest! For those looking to combine exercise with relaxation, my friends highly recommend trying kayaking or stand-up paddleboarding (SUP). It’s a great way to unwind while staying active. The ambience and serenity of the place is truly therapeutic. The beach is quiet and private, offering a peaceful retreat. We also suggest taking a walk to the long beach —it’s a beautiful experience. You can catch a sunrise. We would definitely recommend this place and we are already looking forward to our next visit.
Nothing, we are simple human beings.

Mida Creek offers an exceptional experience with its impressive facilities designed for relaxation. The staff are outstanding, providing excellent service and ensuring effective communication from the booking process through to the end of the stay. Also appreciated the airport pickup and drop off. Overall, my time at Mida Creek was thoroughly enjoyable, and I was delighted with every aspect of my visit.
I think the breakfast could be improved. Additionally, investing in new towels would greatly enhance guest comfort, as the current ones are somewhat aged and not as soft on the skin as they could be.

Property is very modern, nice clean spacious rooms, clean bathrooms, very nice outdoor gym, staff was very friendly and always helpful for any questions!
We were not aware that the last boat to cross to or from Watamu was at 21:00 until we arrived. was quite hard to plan the day around this. Taxi by land takes 40 minutes and costs 4.000ksh, so just be aware of this! Breakfast could have been better, would be nice to have yogurt or cereal, not just eggs :)

Our stay at Mida Creek was fantastic and i would revisit! Mariam, the manager was very warm and helped us organise for transfers to the Hotel. The view was everything! The Hotel gives you a front row view to the Ocean and the nature around is truly a reflection of God's beauty. The staff were extremely warm and accomodating; eager to please and open to feedback. Special thanks to Kenneth, Rehema and Gracious. The hotel even organised a Birthday cake for my spouse, yet we had not made the request( he still thinks i made the request). Very special. Thanks Mariam. The Hotel offers a boatride, to and fro the hotel, makes movement quite easy. The rooms are clean, loved the showers, food was amazing....Definetly one of my best stays.
The equipment including mats in the outdoor gym need dusting/cleaning.

Our stay at Mida Creek hotel offered a serene escape. Hotel's location provided a peaceful ambiance ideal for relaxation. There was the option to use a boat for transport to the opposite shore, adding a touch of adventure. Hotel's intimate atmosphere and personalized service made for a cozy retreat. The amenities, from comfortable rooms to scenic waterfront views, were thoughtfully designed for our comfort and enjoyment. The attentive and professional staff further elevated our experience. It would be 10/10 but...
The absence of air condition in the rooms, makes it difficult to sleep comfortably. Fans are just not sufficient enough.

Gorgeous hotel, relaxed and chilled with lovely facilities and fabulous staff. Breakfast fresh fruit, cooked breakfast and baked items and delicious juice. Loads of seating, hammocks, loungers attractively kauf out, some on platforms. Boat across the estuary to Watamu is quick and efficient and beautiful. It’s a hidden gem tucked away - perfect for those who like a chilled atmosphere. If you’re a noisy group this place wouldn’t be for you as it’s small but perfect for couples, families, friends.
