    The place is absolutely amazing, very clean. Stephen, Ngala and Joseph are the best. They made us feel like we were home away from home despite it being a business trip. The seafood meal chef Ngala prepared was better than any 5star restaurant...

    Villa Mela in Malindi is a great and wonderful house, lovely furnished with original wood stuff, decorated with evergreen trees, plants, two swimming pools, a very nice patio. A peaceful and quiet island in Malindi.
