4BR Villa with Rooftop & Solar – 500m to Watamu Beach

Here's a property that really stands out in Watamu. This 4-bedroom, 5-bathroom villa sits on its own quarter-acre compound, just 500 metres from the beach. At KES 49,000,000, it's a solid investment for anyone looking at the holiday rental market or a permanent coastal home. The current owner says it can easily fetch KES 30,000 a night on Airbnb, which gives you an idea of the income potential here.

About This Property

The villa is spacious – roughly 380 square metres of living space spread across two levels. You get four en-suite bedrooms, with the master bedroom having its own air conditioning unit. The living area is open-plan, which keeps things airy and connected. The kitchen is closed-plan but well ventilated, so cooking doesn't heat up the whole house. Outside, there's a swimming pool, a terrace, and a functional rooftop where you can relax or entertain. The finishes are quality – Neeru plaster on the exterior and terrazzo flooring throughout. Solar panels and an inverter handle power backup, which is a big plus in this area. There's also a garage plus extra parking spaces.

• Swimming pool: A private pool right in your compound, perfect for cooling off after a day at the beach.
• Solar power backup: Solar panels and an inverter keep the lights on and the AC running, even during outages.
• Functional rooftop: An extra outdoor space for lounging, dining, or just enjoying the coastal breeze.
