Alfajiri Villas

Kenya, Africa

Key Features

There are three completely unique villas here, each of which can be booked individually for honeymoons or family gatherings, and come complete with a dedicated butler, private swimming pool, and direct beach access. For couples, opt for the Cliff Villa with its romantic turret suite. For families, the Garden Villa boasts rolling lawns whilst the Beach Villa’s infinity pool seemingly flows straight into the ocean. For large gatherings, book all three villas for a total of 11 bedrooms. Inside, the décor reflects the local heritage and Asian influences, with bright, flowing fabrics, high Makuti roofs, wooden beams, and beautifully carved Lamu doors.

Location

On Kenya’s beautiful south coast, Alfajiri Villas can be found on the edge of Diani – one of Kenya’s best beaches. This stretch of sand is pristine and quiet and has long been heralded as a jewel in East Africa’s crown. Offering complete solitude and relaxation, while also boasting plenty of adventure, it’s a great choice post-safari or just as a stand-alone beach experience.

Activities

If you can tear yourself away from your villa, explore the lush gardens or cool off in the swimming pool at the edge of a small cliff that juts into the sea. There’s a full menu of activities here, including snorkelling coral reefs, community visits to orphanages and local villages, and of course, all the water sports that this area is renowned for. Golfers will enjoy the nearby 18-hole championship course with incredibly scenic views, while guests in need of pampering can unwind in the sauna and enjoy an open-air massage. 

Cuisine

Being so close to the ocean, it’s only natural that the cuisine spotlights the incredibly fresh seafood. The Mediterranean-inspired menus will be tailor-made to you and your clan, served in the comfort of your villa. Olive oil and cheese arrive weekly from Europe, fresh seafood comes in daily from the beach (think crab, prawns, lobsters and octopus), while fresh, seasonal vegetables are sourced from the local farms. 

Sustainability

The Alfajiri Foundation works to support a number of selected initiatives aimed at conserving Kenya’s marine environment, primate research and protection, as well as safeguarding children’s rights. A portion of each guest’s stay at Alfajiri is donated to the foundation, which supports the Diani Turtle Watch, Reefolution, Germano Chincherini Foundation, and Colobus Trust.

Why we love it

Alfajiri’s owners Marika and Fabrizio, along with the rest of the team, will welcome you to the villas with open arms and make you feel immediately at home. This incredibly special property comes with unrivalled views: wake before dawn and head out to the beach to catch the sunrise or relax on your private deck looking out over the vast landscape, before heading out for some action-packed water sports.
