The pictures we found online didn’t do the villa justice. You can expect a huge 3 storey villa with two bedrooms and bathrooms, a comfy huge living area and several chill-out lounge spots at the piece. A huge kitchen and fridge. Daily cleaning will be done and your will get mosquito repellent daily as well, we loved the space, tranquility and luxury. We also enjoyed the poolside as well as the neighbouring beachclub Lost a lot.

We loved the bedroom / apartment with porch and the beach / swimming pool area. Great recreation place for couples. Nice boutique and spa. Lovely Italian manager! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Abikok Jan 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Lawford was a lovely place to stay in Malindi. The 3 bedroom villa and private pool were amazing. Large upstairs and downstairs lounge areas. Lots of space for everyone. There was a full kitchen with all the pots, pans, utensils etc. Service was great. Staff were delightful. Had fun with pool and table tennis. We would live there, if we could! Our neighbors were a bit loud but management tried to help with the situation. The beach is close but the water was brown and not “inviting.” There is a river just north that drains into the ocean right above the property. We would definitely visit again! ##### Abikok Stayed 7 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eirik V Jan 13, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Fantastic hotel, with great value for money.
