Located on Turtle Bay Road, roughly a 15-minute walk from Watamu’s white-sand beach and around 11 minutes from Garoda Beach, Ochre Watamu Villas comprises two newly renovated, modern 2-bedroom villas sharing a swimming pool across the compound — an ideal setup for two travelling families or groups who want their own space but easy access to each other. Each villa sleeps up to six guests and features an open-concept kitchen and living area with sliding doors and windows that let the coastal breeze flow through.

Bedrooms are air-conditioned with ceiling fans throughout the living areas, and each villa comes with a fully equipped kitchen, private bathrooms and a terrace with garden or pool views. Guests consistently praise the villas’ cleanliness, contemporary decor and the on-site, hotel-like level of service from staff living within the compound. The location, just off the main road, is quiet and secure, though guests should note it’s roughly 2km off the main road, with pre-arranged transport (boda, tuk-tuk or taxi) recommended for arrival.

Ochre Watamu Villas is a strong match for families, groups, or two families travelling together who want modern, private self-catering accommodation with a shared pool, close to Watamu’s beaches and marine park.

Why Book with Lissa Holidays

Because Ochre Watamu Villas sits slightly off the main road and consists of two separate villas, Lissa Holidays confirms which villa (or both) suits your group, arranges pre-booked transport for arrival, and liaises directly with the on-site team for a smooth check-in.
