Private Villa in Diani Beach With a Chef
Stay together in a private six-bedroom villa in Diani Beach, with chef services and daily housekeeping included. Enjoy the flexibility of meals at your villa, roughly 300 metres from the beach. Groceries are charged separately.
Up to 12 guests · 6 bedrooms · Private pool
A more relaxed way to enjoy Diani Beach
A villa stay with chef services changes the rhythm of a holiday. Instead of planning each day around restaurant reservations or cooking rosters, your group spends more time together: breakfast appears when you wake up, lunch fits around the children, and dinner can be whenever the day ends. Meals become shared occasions in your own dining space rather than logistics to solve. Privacy is part of it too — your pool, your garden, your terrace, your timetable. And because the cooking is taken care of, the accommodation itself becomes part of the holiday rather than just somewhere to sleep. Groceries and ingredients are paid for separately, so you keep control of what is bought and what it costs.

Make yourself at home
How chef services work at Zavani
Chef services are included in your stay, and daily housekeeping is included as well. Groceries and ingredients are paid for separately — the stay is not an all-inclusive meal package, and we do not present it as one.
Before arrival, tell us your meal preferences, any dietary requirements and how you would like mealtimes to work. Specific menu options and service arrangements depend on verified property policies, so rather than make assumptions here, we confirm the details with you directly in writing.
The everyday details
Ideal for families and groups
Shared meals are where a group holiday comes together. For families with children, mealtimes fit around naps and early bedtimes instead of restaurant schedules. For groups of friends and multigenerational families, everyone eats together without splitting across hotel tables. And on longer stays, not cooking every day is a genuine rest.
Zavani accommodates up to 12 guests across six bedrooms — three in the main house and three smaller bedrooms in the guest cottage. See our family villa page and group accommodation page for how the layout works for different parties.
Coastal living
Your private villa in Diani Beach
Zavani is a private holiday villa roughly 300 metres from Diani Beach — a short walk through the estate, not beachfront. Six bedrooms and five bathrooms sit across the main house and guest cottage, with shared living areas, a covered dining terrace, a private pool and a walled tropical garden.
Daily housekeeping is included, so the villa stays as relaxed as the meals. The pool is unfenced, so children need close adult supervision. Parties, events and pets are not permitted, keeping the property calm for every guest.
Dining at the villa or exploring Diani?
Meals at the villa and evenings out combine naturally. Many guests settle into a rhythm of villa breakfasts and lunches with restaurant evenings in between — Diani's restaurants are a short tuk-tuk ride away. We do not claim dining at the villa is always cheaper than eating out; it is simply more flexible.
