Mvuvi Lodge
Ocean Sport Road, 80202 Watamu, Kenya – Great location - show map
This is just an amazing little hotel just of the beaten track and the major hotels with very easy access to the beach ( walking distance ) . The staff Justin ( Owner ) and Fransis (Barmen) went out of their way to always help. Fransis even made me and my wife a plate of fries 12:00 at night after the kitchen were closed. We returned very late after we went back to Mombasa to fetch our luggage that were left behind in Addis Ababa.
