“sleep in nature”

Prefect stay to be close to nature

“Not good one”

My room was too noisy ! Directly u der the bar ! And can listen the road in the morning ! For 20 dollars per night , no breakfast , small room , really nothing nice ! The barman himself was not so friendly . U van find much better place in diani for this price .

Stilts Treehouses really is a special hostel. First of all, there are monkeys!!! baboons, bushbabies (you can feed them at 7pm) and others just chasing around!!! Second, we lived in a treehouse (shared bathrooms), so basically you sleep in a "cage" and the monkeys and animals are outside free roaming. Third - and foremost: the people! It was great to connect with fellow travellers in the restaurant/community area. The staff was very nice and helpful, food was good (breakfast till dinner available, although sometimes it took over 1 hour). Also they have karaoke once a week where people from outside the hostel join. Special thank you to Ali, a fellow traveller working at the hostel - he was super nice and made us feel like home and he helped us so much (snorkeling trip, train booking, tuk tuk prizing ;), restaurant and party recommendations) - thank you!

Such a cool experience if you’re looking for something more special than a usual hotel. The bar area was well stocked and prices were wallet friendly. The room was simple but well stocked, the fan was very helpful.

My stay was absolutely wonderful, and I truly enjoyed every moment of it. From the very beginning, everything felt calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully arranged, making it the perfect place for a solo stay. A very special thank you goes to Jane, who made my experience truly memorable. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help, creating a sense of comfort and ease throughout my stay. Her warmth and genuine care made me feel completely at home, even while traveling alone. The place was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to relax and fully enjoy the experience. I’m leaving with lovely memories and would happily return without hesitation. Thank you, Jane, for making this stay so special. Highly recommended ✨

“I wished I could stay longer! 😃”

Beautiful setting. Great location. Quiet / peaceful. Friendly helpful staffs. Food and beverages available on site.

“It was a nice stay”

It was nice

“My first time visiting the ocean.”

I liked the animals, the bush and the house in the trees. I like the proximity of the sea at the walking distance. The karaoke was nice. The restaurant was un bit expensive for our budget. There were good and cheaper restaurants not far.

“Nature lover's paradise!”

A wonderful place to stay ensconced in nature and trees - the highlight is bushbaby feeding which happens every evening at 7pm. Having partnered up with Colobus Conservation just down the road, Stilts give all the guests a briefing before feeding them on how to do so ethically, respecting their wild nature. The first hot shower that I'd had in a long time was bliss! Tasty, good value food at the bar, friendly staff who were always up for a casual chat. Lovely family atmosphere. Spacious bed with a good mosquito net. Visits from cheeky vervet and syke's monkeys and lovely birdsong make this a jungle-haven!

“Mwaaaaaah”

Very unforgettable especially the coffee ☕️ 😍 damn it miss it already 😫 😩 😪

“Great and different vibe, simple and super friendly.”

It’s got something special staying up high in the treehouses, and the vibe is great! Karaoke on a Thursday is with locals and tourists so a good vibe all round. Chef Eric is absolutely incredible; his beef fillet dish is delicious!

“A great reasonably priced place to stay in Diani - thanks a lot!”

Good value place to stay in Diani on a budget. Lovely rooms set in the bush with fans (needed!) and mosquito nets. Food was nice and the location was great- very close walk to the beach. Staff were great- Emmanuel, Jane and a special shout out to Ali who was amazing- he spent a lot of time sharing recommendations and helping us out!

Beautiful accomodation within bushes and forest surrounded by different living beings. Hostes are very kind and helpful especially Ali, my friend you made me feel home from first moment till left the place. Keep the good work and friendly attitude. I can undoubtly recommend this place anyone looking for budget accomodation in Diani. Thank you very much Stilts team.

“Stilts is a place full of warmth, life and special people – a place you’ll always want to return to.”

Even though I only stayed for one night, I visited Stilts almost every day – which really says it all. The atmosphere is amazing: relaxed, warm and lively, with something happening every day. The food is very good and prepared with care, the daily bushbaby feeding is a special highlight, and the karaoke nights are truly unforgettable. A very special mention goes to Ali, who makes this place truly exceptional. With his warm and attentive nature, his big heart and his natural talent for bringing people together, he creates something very special. He is a genuinely good person and a friend who enriches Stilts in a way that makes it unforgettable.

The bungalows are great. The stilt rooms are also nice, but quite a way away from the toilets. The bar area was really nice and comfortable with good WiFi and good food. The staff is extremely nice. Shout out to Ali, the volunteer, who is an absolute gem!

“10/10 stay”
