The Cottages
Luxury Cottages in Watamu, Kenya
Kasa Tatu cottages have been designed locally and are furnished and decorated using local materials, artefacts and furniture. Wherever possible we work with local craftsmen using locally sourced materials.
Each cottage its built with its own undergound fresh water tank, alongside solar energy for hot water and emergency power back-up.
A fully equipped kitchen ensures easy preparation of meals and, on request, we can arrange for a dedicated Chef who will cook to your specific requirements – including delicious locally caught fresh seafood.
Our on-site team will be on hand to extend a genuine and heartfelt welcome.

Regional History and Kasa Eliza & Emma Cottages
Watamu is a small peaceful village on the Kenya coast 105 kilometres north of Mombasa and 15 kilometres south of the town of Malindi (which has its own airport with flights to and from Nairobi on a regular basis). The village lies between pristine beaches and lush tropical rainforest and two protected areas: Watamu Marine National Park and Arabuko Sokoke National Park.
Watamu is situated on a small peninsula within the curve of Mida Creek and is surrounded by small coves, bays and broad lagoons. The coastline is fringed with coral reef keeping the waters calm and crystal clear.
Historically, the region has been home to many communities and tribal groups living both in and around the coast, including the Giriama and Bajuni peoples. The first major settlement in the area was a remote Swahili outpost for trading dhows at Gedi – the ruins of which can still be visited today and are a National Museum site.
Watamu has remained a haven of peace and tranquillity and is still proudly one of the coast’s most undeveloped and natural areas. Known for its unique, relaxed and laid-back way of life, Watamu welcomes visitors seeking to chill out, explore and enjoy the wonders that it has to offer.
Our two cottages are a perfect base from which to explore the area: offering as they will a beautiful local design and unique artefacts alongside modern amenities – and our course a small pool!!
Each cottage has its own fully appointed kitchen, wi-fi and satellite DSTV (Family channel).
We love to welcome families and for larger parties both cottages (named Kaza Eliza and Kaza Emma) can be booked together.
Our team extend to you our unique Kenyan hospitality and will make sure your stay is truly unforgettable here in beautiful and unique Watamu.
