Aestus Villas Resort

2025-08-22

We've had such a great Stay Aestus villa. Everything was just brilliant and everyone was so lovely and accommodation. Nothing was too much. Lucia was so flexible and understanding. Our chef was fantastic! Every meal was so tasty. And the rest of the staff were just amazing. Really! Good pool and pool area, good WiFi, good rooms and a lovely porch area for us to eat and chat. To sum it all up, we really loved it there. The attention to details is exceptional.

Un séjour parfait avec des prestations de qualité.

Un endroit paisible et reposant. Nous avons adoré le cadre et la décoration. Il faut faire attention car l’étage et les escaliers sont dangereux pour les enfants. Il y a également des moustiques donc il faut prévoir des vêtements adaptés pour les repas du soir. Le personnel et les propriétaires étaient aux petits soins pour nous et la nourriture délicieuse. Je recommande sans hésitation.

Bardzo przyjemne miejsce. Piękny dom z pięknym ogrodem. Czysto i cicho. Wspaniały kucharz!!! Polecam - 10/10 Blisko do plaży ok 5 minut spacerem.

2025-07-28

Tout était parfait: la villa très spacieuse, architecture originale et très propre (ménage tous les jours, changement de draps + serviettes dans la semaine ); le cuisinier Saïd était extraordinaire: il faisait les courses et nous cuisinait de bons petits plats. les petits déjeuners étaient incroyables: jus de fruits frais, crêpes.. Le personnel était hyper attentionné: Rosie s'est bien occupée de nous. Je recommande vivement! Lieu idyllique pour se reposer ( résidence de 3 villas / 1 piscine commune) car peu de monde. La plage n'est qu'à 3 min à pied: immense plage de sable blanc très propre.

We enjoyed the time here very much. Our cook Hesbone spoiled us everyday with Kenian specialties. They were delicious. Our daughter called him ‚cooking-god‘ 😄 The only disturbing thing were the neighbour‘s dogs barking at night. As there are no windows that can be closed they often disturbed our sleep.

2025-07-21

The accomodation was perfect! Saide did an absolutely amazing job and I'm already missing his flavours! Lili turned our stay even more peacefull, her hands are truly magical! We are looking foward to return to Aestus Villas Resort

2025-07-21

The chef service was amazing! All perfect!

2025-07-11

This place is so peaceful and Nice. The service is extremely good and I had Espon as private chef. He was tight on time, everytime and Made some of the best food i have ever tasted. The villas is near a Bach wich is not the best but its not Their fault. I really recommend This place because it is so Nice.

We spent five unforgettable days at Aestus Villas – a place filled with warmth, attention to detail, and genuine hospitality! A heartfelt thank you to Rosie and Lucia, who supported us with great care in planning our daily activities. Their helpful tips and recommendations made our stay even more special. Even after we had left, Rosie reached out to check in and ask if my son – who had experienced a brief stomach upset – was feeling better. That kind of thoughtfulness truly touched us. We’re also deeply grateful to the amazing chefs, Said and Rajid, who spoiled us with delicious African meals and fulfilled every culinary wish with a smile. Their cooking and kindness made each day a true delight. The villa itself is beautiful – tastefully decorated, well maintained, and full of charm. You can truly feel that everyone here is passionate about making guests feel completely at home. Thank you for everything – we would love to come back!

Beautiful place. Our host was very responsive and helpful during our stay. The chef did a fantastic job. The resort is just a few steps away from the beach and in a safe location. However, the bathrooms need some updates. Flies and mosquitoes were a bit of an issue but manageable.

2025-04-15

We couldn't have asked for more during our wonderful week here! The cook, the property, the pool, the attention from staff (but also given our space) were all just absolutely top notch!! Thanks so much!!

2025-04-10

We had a great stay and will be recommending this place to everyone. The perfect hide away, very chilled out and the staff were amazing. Lucia was great at recommending the excursions and helped arrange it all. Hasbuls cooking was super and he was really caring, tried to help out in every way he could when my kids were unwell. Rose with her super smile would check on us from time to time to see if we were doing well. Modani was very delegent with cleaning the villa and making sure the nets were down and mosquitos were out. Thank you all so much for such a wonderful stay.

Our family very much enjoyed our stay at the Austus Villas. With just 3 villas on the property it felt very private. We traveled with friends and each family was able to occupy their own villa. We spent a lot of time in the lovely pool which we pretty much had to ourselves. The chefs were easy to work with and accommodated our 2 families for big meals altogether. The beach is just a short walk. Absolutely perfect beach with white sand and clear water. The highlight of our trip was snorkeling in the glass bottom boat. My only complaint would be that sleeping was challenging as it was very hot. There is no AC in the rooms. There are fans provided but the coast is just HOT. Overall, we would recommend staying at the Austus!

2025-04-01

Lucia and Rosie are both absolutely delightful and make you feel welcome as soon as you pass the door. The Villas are beautiful (we tested two throughout the stay) and the pool is lovely. Our chef very easily adapted our meals for our 3 non-adventurous eaters. Definitely recommend!!!! To be noted that during humid season there is no ac and it’s definitely warm at night :-) dry season here must be the absolute dream come true vacation !!!

Bin zweimal da gewesen und will ich nochmal kommen. Der Gast Freundschaft ist perfect man fühlt sich zu Hause. Das Essen ist toll und sehr lecker. Von Sauberkeit, der Personal gibt alles um der Lage sauber zu erhalten. Also top Lage und sehr gepflegt. Leider der Unterkunft ha nicht viel mit Spar zutun. Aber trotzdem man fühlt sich zufrieden. Doc ich will nochmal hin. Danke an der Personal und Geschäft Inhaber. Bis bald

We had a lovely time at Aestus, the place is so peaceful and truly a little oasis. The buildings are quirky, clean and cosy, you feel immersed in the beautiful nature around you. Management was also incredibly kind and personable. We felt very looked after. We did struggle with the humidity and heat at the time of our visit, but that was due to the timing of our travel (just before the rainy season). Thank you so much Lucia, Rosie and Saidi for your kindness and hospitality! We would love to come again (also so we can make use of the spa facilities which it was just too hot to enjoy this time 😂!!!)

2025-03-21

The Chef Hesborne is great at his trade. Food delicious..Ambience of the place very accomodating. Kind cleaning and security staff. Wonderful host Lucia. I loved the serenity of the whole set up. The short nearby beach walk is all we needed to have a taste of what the magical Diani Beach has tp offer. Wouldnt mind recommending others to visit and enjoy aestus to savour all that it has to offer. THANK YOU AESTUS. THIS IS HOME TO ME.

2025-03-21

Thank you for a most memorable stay and overall experience for myself and my siblings at the tranquil Aestus Villas Resort. The warm welcome, helpful staff, professional chef and great ambience made the holiday enjoyable. Keep it up, will most certainly return for another stay and also recommend to friends and family.

2025-03-21

Très belle adresse pour un séjour au calme près de la mer. Tout le monde est charmant et à l'écoute. Le plus, c'est le cuisinier compris dans le prix, la seule chose à faire étant de lui donner le prix des produits que vous voulez manger.

2025-03-12

This was a whole different experience and concept. We loved the independence in our food choices . We loved the place , the villa. The staff's friendliness was limitless. Lucia was an excellent host with her advice . It is rare when the host leaves you free to choose what you want to do and gives you an objective advice . I can only say , see you soon . If it is Diani beach then nothing else but Aestus... from family of 4 .

2025-03-07

We really enjoyed and relaxed staying here!

2025-02-20

Un accueil incroyable. La propreté du cottage était impeccable. Le spa était parfait. La piscine très propre . Endroit calme et très proche de la plage. J’ai adoré mon séjour merci à Lucia pour son professionnalisme

2025-02-18

© Villa au calme dans un magnifique jardin, avec une belle piscine. Les villas sont à 5 min de la plage accessible par un sentier. Le concept d'avoir un chef pendant le séjour est formidable ! L'équipe est très sympathique, les villas sont très propre et décorée avec goût. Possibilité de se faire masser Encore merci à Rosie et Hepsone

2025-02-11

Le séjour de trois jours dans cet établissement est juste exceptionnel à tous les niveaux par rapport au tarif. Accueil par la gérante au top, la villa est superbe, bien équipée, les extérieurs sont ultra bien entretenus, la piscine est très propre tout le temps, les femmes de ménages sont réactives et discrètes. Et surtout le chef cuisinier Said est extraordinaire, sympathique, à l’écoute, respecte les horaires et surtout il cuisine très très bien! Tour ce qu’on a mangé était ultra bon. Il y a des jeux au niveau de la piscine pour les enfants, les transats sont en très bon état (pas souvent le cas dans les hôtels…) Bref rien est laissé au hasard! L’emplacement du complexe est vraiment bien, au calme avec un accès très proche à la plage de Diani Beach. La plage est très belle également. On y retournera les yeux fermés! Merci pour cet accueil fabuleux! C’est rare que je mette un commentaire de ce type pour un établissement!

2025-02-10

un séjour magique et reposant dans un cadre magnifique et parfaitement entretenu! une maison confortable. said était parfait. bref on aurait voulu rester plus longtemps :)

2025-02-04

2025-01-30

Thanking you all so much for making our a week long stay so enjoyable. It is such a beautiful place to relax, really loved the tropical gardens and the swimming pool. Our Chef prepared us lovely breakfasts and evening meals. Lucia organised our Airport Transfers from and to Mombasa Moi Airport and 3 different boat trips at more reasonable prices.

2025-01-25

The experience was beyond our expectations. Gorgeous place. Perfect spot for a family vacation.

2025-01-23

sleeping is difficult. there is no air conditioner and the fans are very loud and they don't cool either.

2025-01-09

2024-11-24

Nous avons adoré notre séjour, tout d’abord la villa était magnifique et vraiment dotée d’une belle architecture, ensuite le jardin et la piscine sont très bien entretenus, tout le personnel est adorable et nous avons eu la chance de profiter du merveilleux chef pour plusieurs de nos repas! C était vraiment très bon. Les massages sont fantastiques et les propriétaires très sympathiques:) De plus la villa est à côté de la plage avec des installations très agréables et plutôt calme ! Cet endroit est fantastique merci encore

Zimmer sehr klein. Bei Buchung haben wir die Zimmer des großen Hauses mit unserer Buchung nicht unterscheiden können. Großes Haus, große Zimmer, kleines Haus, kleine Zimmer.

2024-11-08

Thanks for the nice stay. We had a very good time and the food was sooo well prepared.

2024-11-01

We have travelled the world and never had such first class hospitality! We visited Diani for my brother's birthday and stayed here as a family of 4 adults. Property big and clean, beautiful surroundings, great swimming pool. The chefs Ranjab and Hesbone were professional and cooked delicious meals. Lucia was very kind and organised a cake at no charge to us for the birthday boy. Judy, the manager was approachable and a fountain of information and very professional. We would definitely return. Thank you all for your kindness and hospitality.

2024-10-27

The stay was great, supported by a great and helpful team. They took care of every detail and looked for supporting us with the kids anytime. The chef Hesbon was a definitive big + during the stay, accommodating wonderful meals upon request. His smiley attitude was positive and the kids loved spending time with him in the kitchen. We will come back for sure.

2024-10-27

A very beautiful and peaceful place, the house was wonderful. Beautiful, well-kept gardens. We're very grateful to the whole team. Our chef cooked superbly. Special thanks to Judy for her warm welcome and for always caring and making us feel at home. Thank you Aestus Villas for giving us a great vacation and Kenia for the experience.

2024-10-13

A wonderful place to stay… Hezbo our cook conjured up some delicious meals, the villa and pool area was so clean and Judy was so efficient at organising trips or anything needed. Highly recommended.

2024-10-13

We have had a fantastic 5 day stay in a gorgeous villa at aestus . Staff were wonderful especially judy who can organise anything ! Our chef was great and was lovely having meals on the veranda. Short walk to the beach and the white sand and glorious warm sea , couldn’t have been better !

2024-10-01

Lovely home away from home that's very serene. One of my best vacation spots.

2024-10-01

Aestus villa is the best placs to be. Amazing people and very social. We felt welcomed and taken care of from the moment we stepped in the villa to the very last minute. We even added an extra day because of how great the place was. I would go back to this place in the near future and I would highly recommend it to everyone. Thanks Christine .. Rose.. Mary .. and so many more great people we met for making our stay unforgettable.

2024-09-15

I can't describe our stay anything other than a fairy tale. The Blue coral villa, the garden, and the pool were just like from other planet. This was the best accomodation where i have ever stayed. Whole villa was very spacious and rooms aswell. The host Lucia was very caring, chef Rajab was always at hand and cooked phenomenal seafood and fishes. Rosie and other staff was also very kind and attentive. This is how I imagine a perfect vacation!

2024-09-09

Aestus was a remarkable find. So quiet and peaceful, yet only minutes from the beach. Beautiful pool and gardens. Lovely welcome from Lucia and all the staff. And, of course, fantastic food and service from our chefs, Hesbone and Mary. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We will definitely return. Thank you.

2024-09-09

Séjours au top, personnelle au petit soins, la villas et le lieux magnifique, la gérante au top également à l'écoute et de bon conseil pour visite et activités. Je recommande fortement

My stay was wonderful. The upper floor did let a number of insects in that bit in the night, but it was overall a great stay.

2024-08-29

Friendly staff Tasty food by the chef Clean pool and house The outside seats need new bottom cushions. The current ones are old and don't provide support.
