Maweni House is built in Ottoman style with a flat roof, high ceilings and airy rooms. It is recently constructed and has ground and first floor verandas overlooking the sea.

The house, being elevated just above the beach, is always airy and cool. However, the downstairs lounge, veranda, dining room and kitchen all have ceiling fans for your convenience. Each of the five double bedrooms has en-suite shower facilities as well as fans and air-conditioning.

The house is furnished to a high standard with all the furniture being crafted from the finest mahogany. It comes fully stocked with linen and the modern kitchen is equipped with gas cooker, electric fridge, deep freeze and separate bottle cooler, toaster, micro-wave, kettle and utensils. There is a separate laundry with a washing machine.

Within the secure electrified perimeter wall of the property is a beautiful one acre garden. Two magnificent 350+ year old Baobab trees provide the backdrop to the walled garden on one side of the house and perfumed Neem trees shelter the generous swimming pool with semi-horizon bench seating.





Maweni House is let on a self-catering basis and is well staffed. Fishermen come to the door with fresh fish and sea food - including lobster, prawns, crab and oysters - on a daily basis.

Temporary staff, e.g. baby carers, can be made available through Charles, our caretaker. Cots, high chairs and baby baths are also available on request for guests with very young children.

Electricity and water are included in the rent. This particular area of Kilifi District experiences acute shortages of water during the dry season, but there are good water storage facilities at the house.

During the South East monsoon (April-November), visitors may experience seaweed being washed up onto Maweni beach. However, a short stroll up or down the beach will lead to clear water and sand.
