The villa
A house made
for slow days.
Sandbox is a self-catering beachfront villa on Kilifi's coveted Bofa Road — the same stretch of coast as Maya Kobe and Enkare Bofa. Four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private pool, and direct beach access make it an ideal base for groups who want privacy, flexibility and genuine coastal living.
The villa is fully equipped for self-catering: a spacious, well-appointed kitchen, generous outdoor living areas, and the kind of easy, informal atmosphere that makes holidays feel effortless. No cook is included — you are free to self-cater, or the concierge can arrange a cook on request.
