Diani is a beach area at the border of Mombasa, Kenya and home to the most beautiful beaches on the East Coast. Most residents of Mombasa hang out in Diani for the weekend and it is no surprise the location is extremely popular amongst tourists as well. Read on to learn about our selection of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in and near Mombasa, Kenya.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on May 13, 2024.

1. Villa with a pool (from USD 30)

The one-bedroom villa presents an equilibrium of comfort and functionality. Away from the beach by 1 km (0.62 mi), the one-bedroom accommodation is a great fit for couples, business travelers, and people flying solo. Safety is ensured with a 24/7 security attendant and caretaker. If you are visiting for work, you can take advantage of the internet connectivity and the workstation for your remote tasks. While it is a self-catering unit and comes with a well-equipped kitchen, if you don’t feel up for cooking, you can stop by the Swahili restaurant right beside the Airbnb.
