Four serviced homes · Siaya
Aldivada Cosy Homes is a collection of self-contained homes in Siaya, for guests who want the comfort and privacy of a home with the convenience of a serviced stay.

Welcome
Four homes, each named for a bird, on one quiet gated compound in Awelo, about eight minutes' drive from Siaya town.
A home on the compound, not a room in a block. There is space around each one, tall trees behind them and birds in the morning, and nobody else's door next to yours. Each is yours alone, with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a sitting room and a full kitchen: somewhere to slow down and settle in, not only somewhere to sleep.
The homes
Aluru, Akuru, Awendo and Osogo are the Dholuo names of four birds that live around the compound. Wake early enough and you may hear them getting started before the day does. Inside, all four homes are laid out and furnished alike.

Why choose us
A home of your own, somewhere quiet and looked after, where the power, the water and the WiFi keep working.
A whole house, beautifully furnished, with its own kitchen, sitting room and bathroom. Never shared with another booking.
Set back from the Siaya-Yimbo Road, so the first thing you hear in the morning is usually the birds.
About eight minutes' drive from Siaya town: near the market, the county offices and the hospital, away from the bustle.
The compound is monitored around the clock, for added peace of mind throughout your stay.
One gate, a guard on site and only four homes inside it. You know who your neighbours are.
Inside the gate and off the road, so the car is never left on the street.
Satellite internet, so a video call holds up even when the local line does not.
Covers lights, sockets and the router in all four homes when the power goes.
Running water at every tap, backed by a tank on the compound.
Hob, fridge, pots and plates. Cook properly rather than eat out.
Professionally cleaned between every stay, to the same checklist in all four homes, with fresh linen on the beds.
Arrive from 2pm on your own schedule. No front desk to catch.

Booking direct
Aldivada is not listed on Airbnb. You book with us directly instead, on WhatsApp or by phone, and pay our direct rate.
What you get is what people look for there: a whole self-contained house with its own kitchen, sitting room and bathroom, on a gated compound about eight minutes' drive from Siaya town. Your home is never shared with a second booking. Self check-in from 2pm, and you pay by M-Pesa or bank transfer.
Direct booking rates
Direct booking means booking with us directly, on WhatsApp or by phone. Tell us your dates and we will let you know which home is free.
With one bedroom, we lock the second and the rest of the house is still yours alone. Rates on other booking platforms may be slightly higher, because those platforms add their own service fees.

Getting around
Siaya town is about eight minutes' drive away, so the market, the county offices and the hospital are all within easy reach. The compound itself stays quiet.

Reviews
I stayed three weeks and by the second morning it stopped feeling like a rental and started feeling like mine. The veranda did most of that.

Booked one bedroom because I was on my own, and still had the whole kitchen and sitting room. I have paid more for far less in London.

Quiet, clean, and the photographs were honest, which is rarer than it should be. The power went out in town and the WiFi never dropped.
