Staff were great. Friendly . The food was exceptional! Beach location was beautiful!! The room was attended every day, which was fantastic. Loved the dogs that lived on the property! They kept the monkeys in check. The wait staff in the restaurant are worth more than they are probably getting paid!

“A decent stay with caveats at Diani”
1. Location - Right on the beach. 2. Bar and Restaurant on the beach to get drinks and cocktails while sunbathing. 3. Food is very good, though limited menu. 4. Some rooms in the front have private terrace overlooking the ocean, though there's baboons lurking around and you have to be careful and keep the doors closed all times. 5. Staff - Very polite and courteous

“very good location with easy access to the sea... very good quiet place.”
While the property boasts a fantastic view and easy beach access, the amenities are unfortunately lacking. Food options and general services are quite restricted—particularly the breakfast, which, despite being included in the package, offers very few choices.

“We would return and that is a glowing reporting itself. A great beachfront hotel and not fenced off like some of the oth”
The biggest single thing this hotel has going for it is its location; right on the beach. That is the sunbed and the restaurant. All staff were amazing.

“Magical sunny Christmas at the beach.”
We had a five day stay from Christmas day to the 29th with a five-year-old. We received complementary airport transfers to and from the airport. The staff was friendly and helpful. A big thanks to Mwanaamisi at reception, Mary, Melvin and Caroline at the restaurant and Ali who helped us with our luggage and the sunbeds every day. The superior triple is spacious, clean and has a beautiful view of the beach. The room came plenty of water refills and was cleaned thoroughly every day. The food was freshly made daily and tasty. The access and views of the pristine beach were fantastic. I would stay here again and recommend it others.

Perfect location, the best part of Diani Beach. The hotel is settled on a small hill, clear and picturesque view to the beach. Cozy, spacious rooms. Wonderful breakfast, a large a-la-carte menu. Friendly restaurant and hotel staff. Will be definitely back.

Waking up to the sea view was amazing. Good sleep quality due to the sound of the ocean.
