A wonderful experience. Harrison and his family were very welcoming. We were made to feel more like visiting friends than customers. There couldn’t be more of a contrast with some of the sterile, foreign-owned hotels around Watamu. This was a chance to really experience the local way of life at Mida Creek. We benefited enormously from his local knowledge when it came to transport and sightseeing. The food was all home-cooked, fresh and lots and lots of it! Don’t expect European-style facilities, but if you want a truly memorable, life-enhancing experience, this is it!

We stayed 2 nights in this special place, with the nicest people on the coast. If you like nature, culture and camping, this is a place you must visit. Harrison, Phil, John and Dani are the best, very happy people, they enjoy life and do everything possible so that you can enjoy it with them. Thank you very much for all your love and hospitality. We took the cooking class to celebrate my birthday and it was quite an experience! Getting to know and learning about their cuisine and the process behind it was very special, along with doing it the traditional way. I still remember the taste of that grilled fish! Highly recommended. And as a surprise, Harrison bought me a cake and we celebrated in the purest local style, with songs, dances and palm wine. It will undoubtedly be a birthday that I will remember for a long, long time. The accommodations are simple, but they have what you need to enjoy. Being a very natural place and close to the mangroves, you should expect quite a few insects. During our visit we didn't see many mosquitoes, but you see everything. Many birds also wandering around. The campsite is 800 metres from the road and about 500 from the mangroves. You can have breakfast and lunch at Harrison's restaurant on the seafront. There are many activities to do in the area and Harrison, like the whole team, is always willing to help. If you want a unique and different experience on the Kenyan coast, Mida Creek Nature Camp is definitely the option!

Due giorni (e due notti) di vita nell'Africa "vera", nella foresta, vicino al fiume. Harrison è superaccogliente, disponibile e cordiale, altrettanto suo fratello Emmanuel. Il giro in canoa con Daniel è un'avventura da non perdere: slalom tra le mangrovie, bagno all'isola verde e ritorno con la marea che sta scendendo e ci costringe a percorrere l'ultimo tratto camminando nell'acqua troppo bassa per la canoa. Un'esperienza per quasi tutti, che ti fa vivere l'Africa .

It really does not get more adventurous then to spend a night or two in a tree house in so much touch with nature by the coast of Kenya! I came here by myself to spend only one night and had no idea what to expect. Frankly I imagined that I would be bored since there would probably not be more travellers because of covid. Wow I was wrong! This was probably my FAVOURITE experience out of two whole months in Kenya! The family that welcomed me here was so wonderful and they kept me company and entertained the whole time I stayed there. Btw I extended my stay to two nights because I simply didnt want to leave this magical place after just one night. The tree houses are so cool and you are so in touch with nature. Recommend this for everybody who are in for real adventures!

Un luogo dove vivere l'Africa VERA. Alloggi molto spartani, servizi "essenziali", ubicazione nella giungla a breve distanza dal Mida Creek (meno di 10 minuti a piedi), cibo locale e "familiare", ma buono e molto economico, accoglienza ottima e con massima disponibilità per tutto. Niente a che fare con i soliti resort, ma imperdibile se si vuol dire di essere stati in Kenya.
