A nice and quiet hostel near Diani Beach. The beds are comfy, mosquito net and good shower. The ladies cooked dinners for me. It was delicious.

“Awful”
I hated the noisy drama between the white immigrant, his Kenyan lover, and the manager.

“Would never recommend anyone to stay here. Especially not solo female travellers”
No electricity, no water and the pool was dirty so you couldn’t use that either. The owner was rude and yelled at me, when I asked for a refund because of this. He made me feel unsafe and I left immediately

“I would stay here again because of 1. The awesome staff 2. Close to a woman who sells really nice viazi karai with ukwa”
I loved how far it was from the city. It’s a really really chilled and quiet place.

It’s great value for money. The pool is a nice addition, in a beautiful garden. It’s a hostel - don’t expect luxury but the bed was comfy, fan in the room, clean and very friendly staff. I like it it’s not in the proper Diani center, even the closest beach is more relaxed and not full of people.

“I'll miss the place”
My best part was that the dorms were built with the wood and makuti. It made the space so well ventilated and airy. Also the food cooked by Dominic was something I looked forward to everyday. It was much better than expected.

“If you’re looking for a calm and peaceful place to stay in Diani.”
Quiet place to stay in Diani. I booked the dorm and basically had it like a private room since there wasn’t any other guests at the room. Food was amazing. I tried the Pilau, credit to the chef.

“A place to rest comfortably and cleanly”
I'm so grateful to Dominic for his hospitality! He tried to accommodate my requests. His cooking is delicious! He's always busy maintaining his house. The place is very clean, including the pool and bathrooms. There's security at night. My stay was very pleasant. When I return to Kenya, I'll be back. Thank you so much for everything.
