Stunning 4 bedroom house close to beach
Your private get-away in Diani Beach / Galu Beach
Seaside Villa One & Two are both 4 bedroom beach houses, each tucked away in its own private tropical garden within 'Tamani', a large beachfront property on Galu Beach.
Each villa has it's own private swimming pool and is just 230 metres from the beautiful and uncrowded beach - you just stroll down through the lovely Tamani gardens to the beach.
With large rooms, each house accommodates 8 guests comfortably in a contemporary Swahili design with spacious living areas.
I designed and built these homes with loving care
Galu Beach is the finest section of beach in Kenya.
It's an extension of Diani Beach and is a residential area. The main Diani Beach commercial area is about 5 kms away, however very close to us there are 4 beach bars and 3 excellent restaurants - all with a few hundred metres and you can just walk to them along the beach! It's a rare pleasure to do that.
This is also a prime area for kite surfing, foiling and swimming. The sea is safe, with fine white sand, no rocks and is protected by the coral reef about 1km offshore so there are no strong currents or big waves. It's great for kids and adults alike.
