Welcome to our shady, peaceful eco-cottage, just a short walk from Watamu's stunning beaches and mangroves. Delight in the gorgeous pool and garden lounge, enjoy a sundowner on our breezy treehouse yoga deck or even try your hand on our climbing wall! A unique and tranquil getaway, perfect for nature-loving couples, digital nomads or the whole family.
The treasure of Salama House is our distinctive Balinese-style garden lounge and airy treehouse yoga deck overlooking a sparkling pool set among lush plants. We've installed a gorgeous outdoor shower and even built Watamu's only climbing wall for you to enjoy. So, take a refreshing swim, read your favourite book, wake up to sunrise yoga or relax with a breezy sundowner.
You'll be right at home in the cottage. It comes tastefully furnished with everything you need for a relaxing stay; comfy patio and lounge, a/c in the master & guest bedrooms, fully equipped kitchen and dining area, and thoughtful homely touches, such as a picnic hamper, tree swing, books, snorkelling gear and board games.
You'll also love our commitment to nature; we're fully solar, harvest our precious rainwater, recycle and compost all our food waste. For those who cant avoid it, we're fully set up for remote working, complete with an office, wide-screen monitor, extension cables and WiFi throughout.

You'll also quickly discover that we've been adopted by three delightful kitties and their mother&nbsp;- Wally, Cardi,&nbsp;Rocky and Mama Cat&nbsp;(so you'll need to love pets!). On top of all that,&nbsp;you'll also find plenty of parking, a safe neighbourhood and wonderful neighbours. It will feel a real home (or office) away from home. Karibu&nbsp;Salama House!

Salama House - your peaceful, poolside retreat

Amazing! A beautifully appointed home, just a short walk from the beach. Much of the furniture is sourced locally from Watamu, and there is everything you need to be fully self catering, although eating out is a breeze as there are some lovely restaurants not far away. We spent much of our time lounging by the new pool, which is overlooked by a wonderful wooden yoga deck with swing chairs and hammocks set amongst the trees - we found it a great spot for shady mornings and lazy afternoons. Thank you Hamish and team for helping us have such a memorable stay in Watamu.

Beautifully appointed, short walk to the beach

WOW - what a poolside slice of heaven! Our family had a delightful stay at Salama House. It had everything we needed for a very chill long weekend at the beach… From corkscrew to coffee machine, yoga mats to board games. We even had a movie night for the kids on the patio which they loved. Beaches and cafés are just 10 minutes away, and it’s a short walk to the mangroves where we did a magical float all the way downstream to Lichthouse for cocktails and seafood. Although I’m not especially a cat person, our kids are, and they were constantly entertained with three new furry friends (including climbing a tree to get one down). Definitely a recommended beach getaway destination.

Wow! Beautiful beach getaway

Hamish and Lindsay's home was a piece of heaven! The house is beautifully decorated and well-located, surrounded by palm trees and beautiful nature. We really felt at home during our stay and enjoyed every bit of it. The hosts were extremely communicative and flexible with our check-out time. I would love to come back and would recommend this house with no hesitation! Thank you so much Hamish, Lindsay, Nora &amp; Arnold (and the cats).

A piece of heaven!

We had a wonderful stay at Salama House. Great location, close to the beach, at a quiet location, and close to Lichthaus. Hamish has been a great host, providing advice and quick comms. The house itself is amazing. Multiple places where you can sit and relax, in the veranda or in the treehouse. Which is also a great place for yoga, working or massages. The pool is nice and clean, and the garden is beautiful !

A wonderful stay at our favourite beach!

We
