Family-friendly vacation rentals in Diani

We loved staying at Familia House! Everyone was very welcoming and nice! The place was also incredible for our family of four! This was our first time in Diani and we couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay! Beach is less than 10 min walk away. They also have amazing dogs Mikki and Lala!😭❤️❤️ The chef was also amazing!! 10/10 experience, can’t wait to come back again in future!

Excellent!

Feisal's place was fantastic and very spacious! it is a definite return place!

Great place to stay. Secluded, private and wonderfully located. Kitchen staff superlative. Pool great for all the family. Very roomy.

Wonderful staff, great pool, and lovely house. Looking forward to coming back.

Sandarusi is a beautiful house, set on our favourite stretch of beach - we'll be back! Thanks to Anthony and Rodgers for looking after us so well

African house is beautiful with a well kept large garden and pool. It Is very clean with diffent animal themed bed rooms. located in a central location that makes it easy to access the beach, shops and restaurants. Dog friendly too meaning we took our pet with us. The staff are really friendly and very proactive. The host is very responsive and helpful. I have already recommended it to my family and Friends for their Christmas holidays.

Beautiful and large house, garden, and beach. Staff was extremely helpful and friendly, in-house chef made delicious food, the beach was basically private and the owners communicated well with us. The location is fairly remote but even without our own transport, we were able to take a taxi to diani without a problem. The beach itself is fairly shallow so massive swims are not really an option but snorkeling works and it is still very beautiful. Would come here again any day. Thank you team!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Elodie's place! From the moment we arrived, everything was seamless. The check-in process was easy, and the space was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated. The location was perfect, close to everything we needed but still quiet and peaceful. I’d highly recommend staying here if you’re looking for a relaxing and enjoyable experience in Diani. Would definitely come back!

Shalom Cottages is an awesome place to be in. The owner is quite understanding and can accommodate any small changes in the timelines. The environment is clean. The swimming pool area is clean. It is a second home to people with a family. The staff, Gibran, is always ready to help. Amazing experience. Would highly recommend.

The house is beautifully presented with 4 enormous double bedrooms, two with equally enormous balconies. The pictures do not do the property justice. Mzuri House is part of a well run little complex. Security is ever present and you feel perfectly at ease at all times. The house feels very private and is 20M from the quieter Galu Beach, an extension of Diani beach. Sails and Salty Squid restaurants are excellent and only 100M. However the main attractions at Mzuri House are Liz the housekeeper and Shee the chef. Both were amazing hosts. Liz will communicate with before you arrive. She will arrange everything for you from airport pick-ups to restaurant bookings as well as keep the house spotless. Shee the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and lunch and / or dinner. All meals were extraordinary local dishes that our usually difficult to please 3 kids devoured! We can not recommend Mzuri House enough and in particular Liz and Shee.

Thank you so much Kiko and Cathy for the amazing stay - we loved this location - so easy to get to the beach and local places to eat. The house itself is an oasis and very quiet and peaceful - we loved seeing the monkeys playing outside. Chef Erick was amazing as well and the food he cooked was wonderful and suitable for a family / small child. The pool was sparkling clean and warm and we had such a great stay! Thank you!

Barry’s place was amazing to say the least. The place is beautiful, the pictures don’t do it justice! The staff was very friendly and helpful, shout out to Samar who is the friendliest guard there is. The pool is just right and always kept clean. And the view is to die for. The kids and I will definitely be back, totally worth every penny!

Lucia's place was an amazing stay for my friends and I. We had the pleasure of renting out all the villa's on Lucia's property which was ideal for a large group such as ourselves. So please consider this location for both small or large groups as the place can easily accommodate both options. The villas are in a nice location with easy access to a beach which is a few metres away on foot. It was easy to find the location on Google Maps and through the pin shared by Lucia and her team. There are also a couple of restaurants and cafes in the area if you would like to venture out and explore. Lucia has maintained the villas very well, keeping them spotless clean, tidy and well fitted with accessories such as portable fans, day beds, lounge pillows, daybeds, extra towels etc. She has a great team of staff who were courteous, extremely helpful , well mannered and happy. We also noted that Lucia was hands on and in some cases worked alongside her team completing chores. Lucia lives close to the property and occasionally popped in to check on us but still provided us with privacy to enjoy our holiday. She was also kind enough to give us a New Year's gift which was nice touch. Lucia had a team of chefs available as part of the stay and they made us some amazing meals. The breakfast options were tasty and non-monotonous. I also highly recommend having the chefs make you some Seafood as they made us some of the most tasty seafood we've ever had. The place is also very secure. There was a guard available who would reconfirm with us any visitors before letting them in and there is also a lockable garage area if you come with a car. Overall, our stay was great. We had a lot of fun, the place was clean and the staff were always at hand to help us with anything we asked for such as booking massage sessions at the villas, covid testing, taxis etc. I highly recommend the place as you can feel Lucia's personal which makes the place feel like a home away from home.

Always a pleasure staying at this listing.... 10/10 minus nothing! Already looking forward to my next stay....

Everything is perfect, remember to start the fan a few hours before sleep. Go to the host for dinner at least once and get advice from the houseboy on tuk tuk ride prices etc.

We had an amazing time at White House, Diani Beach. John and his team made us feel so welcome. Sarah, the angel of the house, made everything effortless, from organizing massages and boat/car trips to taking care of every detail. She’s such a sweetheart and made our stay truly special. James amazed us with his cooking- sourcing fresh seafood from local fishermen and the best fruits from the market - and preparing every meal to perfection. He’s not just a great cook but also a joy to chat with. The house is stunning, the white beach perfect for walks, and the pool was always clean and well tempered. Even during blackouts, the generator worked flawlessly. With visible security guards on-site 24/7, we always felt safe, even though the area itself felt secure at all times. It was a perfect getaway!

Absolutely beautiful! Location is perfect. The house is stunning, with plenty of space for large groups, a lovely pool and breathtaking view. The staff were amazing and took great care of us. An unforgettable holiday!

We spend 6 nights at the beautiful garden villa and we had a great time. It was amazing to be so close to nature - and everything that goes with it. We had some incidents where monkeys came in and stole our groceries from the fridge. We solved the problem by putting a chair in front, and then there was no more steeling. We could only laugh at it, and it just made our visit more authentic. But a quick fix could be to put some simple children locks on the fridge. The villa is located a 10 minute walk from Chandarana (grocery store) and it had direct access to the beach, where sun-beds were provided so beach sellers would not disturb you. The staff were amazing and very kind. So a big thank you to Sylvia, Freda, mama Hawa Abdahllah, David, Daniel, Hassan, and everybody else for making us feel welcome, save, and looked after.

Overall amazing experience all around. Margaret the cook and cleaning lady was amazing. We really enjoyed the food and service. If you are looking for a secluded place - this is a great one. A couple of things to note: 1) The printed instructions are outdated. None of the beach guides were working there. But it wasn't a problem - we met Amos who did an amazing job. You meet him on the beach. 2) The location is a bit distant from the shops / supermarkets. It is possible to deliver things there but you should think about it beforehand. 3) In one shower there was only hot water and in another shower there was only cold water. Overall, the houses could use a bit of renovation. 4) There was some music coming from the neighborhood that disturbed our sleep on one of the nights. None of the above were major points - overall, the experience was amazing, highly recommended.
