Watamu itself is a bit less interesting in the off season (I.e. most restaurants are closed, as are many of the gear shops), but it’s still lovely if not a tad bit windy. Staff were amazing! Highly recommend. ##### Kathryn Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 25, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Could be better Upon arrival the staff at the reception just watched as we struggled with our luggage. Their welcome was quite cold. Had requested for rooms close to each other but was given given separate rooms and only informed there weren’t close rooms together ones we got to the rooms. Service at the restaurant was quite slow and the staff seemed confused with no coordination. Only one guy think the manager/supervisor seemed to try but you could clearly see he was overwhelmed. Overall, we expected much more from a hotel like Hemmingways. Standards were quite low and definitely not value for the amount charged. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert Feb 18, 2025 ##### Robert Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Caroline Jan 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely to stay at Hemingways!

Staff were very kind and friendly. The bar and restaurant are very well appointed; I think they refurbished it not that long ago. The menu was extensive and the food good quality. Good pools, including a ‘quiet pool’, which is such a great addition. We had a lovely spacious room with sea view. Everything was clean and in good working order, nice bed and linens. The AC was working just like you’d want it to and made relatively little sound. Perhaps the bathroom could do with a little touch up. I would love to stay here again! ##### Vincent Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katie Jul 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed in a 2 bed apartment which was well appointed and extremely spacious with a huge balcony (sadly not much sun as facing east) but overlooking the Indian Ocean. The bathrooms were good though beginning to look a little tired otherwise the apartment was fabulous. Plenty of bottled water provided each day and milk, tea and coffee (instant only). Substantial breakfast with plenty of options provided each morning. Lovely little coffee shop selling variety of cakes and muffins, coffee etc and range of smoothies. Hemingways bar fabulous spot for sundowner. Main restaurant was offering a buffet every night we were there but also à la carte, which in our opinion was the better option - and less expensive if you don’t have a huge appetite (buffet was ksh4,500 pp vs eg 3800 for huge freshly grilled king prawns and accompaniments or 1800 for delicious freshly cooked catch of the day). The pools were very clean (one main, one child’s and one quiet pool) and the pool staff attentive. There isn’t a beach to sit on though you can access beach to walk along. Gardens were delightful and well kept. All the staff we dealt with were charming and friendly and made us very welcome. We stayed in July and it was extremely windy (though I liked this as humidity reduced) and a lot of seaweed on the beach. We also used the gym which was well appointed, good a/c and I was allowed to borrow a yoga mat for my stay so I could do yoga on the peace of my balcony overlooking the ocean: nameste! ##### Katie Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniel Oct 23, 2022 ##### Daniel Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John Sep 17, 2022 ##### John Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bo Ra Sep 12, 2022 ##### Bo Ra Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Kosi Jun 28, 2022 Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Terrible food, terrible service, annoying inefficient staff that has no sense of customer service. The only thing going for it, the rooms are clean and shower is good. 5 star hotel, very far from it. ##### Kosi Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Hua Jun 7, 2022 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### We wish you could do better I think I would rate it 6 out of 10; 1, The Spa session was really BAD, no music, no green tea, no underware, the Lady who was massaging my husband was not very professional to say the least; 2, the house keeping service was not up to the normal standard, cups not washed, tissues not filled up; 3, Very minimum Seafood served and yet we are next to the sea. ##### Hua Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JEANETTE MARIE Mar 16, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities The staff were helpful and pleasant all the time.

The hotel had very little atmosphere. The lighting was terrible and the layout of the restaurant and bars was poorly conceived. Most people that we spoke to went the the hotel next door to eat. The menu design is badly done as we couldn't see half the dishes on it and didn't realise how comprehensive it was. When we did eat there it was good but you didn't want to eat there in the evening. The bar was also the same . you would expect Hemmingway to be a feature in the hotel but it wasn't. ##### michael Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy Aug 31, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stunning property and location! Even more impressive was the attentiveness of the staff and their outstanding hospitality. Every need was anticipated and met with a smile. ##### Nancy Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2021 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Motels Drumheller](https://www.expedia.ca/Drumheller-Motels.d55296-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Fairmont Mara Safari Club](https://www.expedia.ca/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Fairmont-Mara-Safari-Club.h1544563.Hotel-Information) > > [Kibo Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.ca/Amboseli-Hotels-Kibo-Safari-Camp.h14826564.Hotel-Information) > > [Golden Nugget Las Vegas Hotel & Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Golden-Nugget-Las-Vegas-Hotel-Casino.h43312.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashnil Mara Camp](https://www.expedia.ca/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Ashnil-Mara-Camp.h12748836.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in China](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-China.d37.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Admiral Inn Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Admiral-Inn-Hamilton.h12236.Hotel-Information) > > [WyndhamHotels Hotels in Ottawa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ottawa-Hotels-Wyndham-Hotels.0-0-d178296--bWyndhamHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Salt Lick Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Taita-Hills-Hotels-Salt-Lick-Safari-Lodge.h1737570.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Waterslides in Victoria](https://www.expedia.ca/Victoria-Hotels-Hotels-With-Waterslides.0-0-d4138-tHotelswithWaterslides.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Jamliz Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Mwingi-Hotels-JAMLIZ-HOTEL.h48214087.Hotel-Information) > > [Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Amboseli-Hotels-Amboseli-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h978634.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Las Vegas (LAS) to Regina (YQR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/las/yqr/las-vegas-to-regina) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Gatwick (LGW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/lgw/calgary-to-london) > > [Flights from Bordeaux (BOD) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bod/cdg/bordeaux-to-paris) > > [Flights from Salt Lake City (SLC) to Las Vegas (LAS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/slc/las/salt-lake-city-to-las-vegas) > > [Flights from Barcelona (BCN) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/bcn/yow/barcelona-to-ottawa) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Mumbai (BOM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bom/toronto-to-mumbai) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Brussels (BRU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bru/toronto-to-brussels) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/cun/montreal-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/fll/montreal-to-fort-lauderdale) > > [Flights from Rome (FCO) to Paris (CDG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fco/cdg/rome-to-paris) > > [Air Canada Toronto (YYZ) to London (LHR) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pearson-intl-to-heathrow/ac/yyz/lhr) > > [American Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/American-Airlines-Flights.cAA.Travel-Guide-Airlines) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Calgary.d178245.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem](https://www.expedia.ca/Ye-Olde-Trip-To-Jerusalem-Nottingham-City-Centre.d6087707.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Royal Palace of Madrid](https://www.expedia.ca/Royal-Palace-Of-Madrid-Madrid-Centro.d501620.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Mexico Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Mexico.d117.Destination-Travel-Guides)
