"Superbe villa située dans un cadre enchanteur, une vue à couper le souffle avec de magnifiques couchers de soleil. Le chant des oiseaux au réveil. Margareth et Georges sont des hôtes remarquables d'une infinie gentillesse et d'un sens profond du partage. Grâce à eux nous avons découvert les us et coutumes d'un magnifique pays. Mouramba et Seïdi (le cuisinier et le jardinier) sont là pour nous aider et s'occupent de tout, tant au niveau domestique que touristique. A découvrir les très typiques tuku-tuku si pratique pour les petits déplacements."

"My husband and I enjoyed a most relaxing few days at Sunset Villa for our Wedding Anniversary- it was everything and more the advert said it was.Very peaceful and the view was breathtaking to wake up to in the morning.The villa was spotless and had everything including an amazing chef ! we needed as we never left this special haven. The staff were very polite and more than helpful. I was over whelmed with the beautiful gardens.A painter or writer's paradise as so tranquil.We would recommend the Sunset experiance if you just want to chill and relax. Congratulations Margurite and George on your beautiful creation !"

Great place
Simple home, well maintained and the host was very available. The children enjoyed the house very much - the kayaking boats and the proximity to the beach. The staff were also very helpful.

HAKUNA MATATA
Absolument parfait ! Résidence(s) en plein coeur de la nature, non loin d'un petit village kényan. Vue sur la crique, qui se jette à quelques centaines de mètres dans l'Océan Indien. Un mot pour résumer le séjour passé sur place : calme. Le calme dans lequel la résidence est baignée est absolu, troublé par quelques oiseaux seulement. Chambres très confortables, salon accueillant, cuisine équipée comme il faut et terrasse envoûtante de par la vue et le calme, je conseille vivement les villas si vous souhaitez passer un agréable moment à l'étranger. 10mn en tuk-tuk de Kilifi, plusieurs hôtels à proximité pour des activités nautiques ou tout simplement pour boire un coup, et bien évidemment un personnel adorable. Je recommande.

extraordinaire
un voyage extraordinaire grâce à l'accueil de nos hôtes avec muramba aux commandes pour manager, nous aider au marché, à organiser nos journées, à Saïda pour la nature et surtout son village, à Jonathan pour un magnifique safari à Tsavo. Une belle aventure humaine et naturelle. La vue sur la crique est magnifique, les baignades magiques. Nos enfants petits et grands ont vécu une grande aventure.

The view from the house was lovely and the gardens very pretty ."

"Pobyt w Sunset Villa bar...
"Pobyt w Sunset Villa bardzo udany. Dom i ogród bardzo piękne. Zatoka ( Kilifi Creek ) oddalona o kilkaset metrów. Przemili Gospodarze a za razem właściciele posesji. Personel zatrudniony w Sunset Villi w pełni profesjonalny , bardzo przyjazny i skory do pomocy na każdym kroku. Kucharz Muramba naprawdę wspaniale gotuje. Ogrodnik Saidi dba o ogród, służy swą wiedzą i pomocą w razie problemów a Salim codziennie dba o basen na posesji. Nocnego „ochroniarza” nie udało nam się poznać… poruszał się w ciemności nocy i strzegł bezszelestnie naszego bezpieczeństwa. Miesiąc cudownego pobytu w Kenii minął niepostrzeżenie. Było SUPER. Wiem jedno… niebawem… może nawet w tym roku wrócimy do Sunset Villa.. Dziękujemy wszystkim i do zobaczenia wkrótce… Stay in Sunset Villa very successful. House as well garden very fair. Gulf ( Kilifi Creek ) away a hundred metre. Owners are nice and friendly. The crew of Sunset Villa engaged and fully professional. The cook Muramba are cooking really tasty. Gardener Saidi to take care of the garden every day. And Salim every day take care of the swimming pool. The month of a wonderful stay passed very quickly. Was super. I’m sure I’ll be back to Sunset Villa. Thanks to everyone."
