About Medina Palms
Medina Palms is widely regarded as the most design-forward luxury property on the Kenyan coast — a boutique villa resort where each villa is individually designed by a different East African architect or interior designer. Private pools, outdoor showers, and hand-selected furnishings make each accommodation unit genuinely unique.
The resort’s beachfront restaurant serves a menu inspired by Indian Ocean culinary traditions — Swahili, Omani, Indian, and Portuguese influences — paired with a considered wine and cocktail list. The spa, yoga pavilion, and ocean-facing pool deck complete the experience.
An SUV or luxury saloon is the right vehicle for Medina Palms guests. The 106-minute transfer from MBA reflects the resort’s position as one of the furthest north of Watamu’s properties.
What to Do Near Watamu
Watamu sits within the Watamu Marine National Park, offering world-class snorkelling, glass-bottom boat trips, deep-sea fishing, and turtle nesting on the beach from September to March. The Gede Ruins are 15 minutes away, and Arabuko-Sokoke Forest is accessible for birding day trips.
