The hotel is a bit far from the beach, about 5-10 minutes by tricycle. The villa is large with two bedrooms, suitable for a family of 4, but the facilities are old and the hygiene is average.
For some reason the hotel did not receive my booking information. After we arrived at 7:30 pm local time, we waited for an hour and a half for the villa to be ready.
If you do not choose all-inclusive meals, even drinking water will not be provided.
Paradise on the Kenyan coast
- clean modern rooms with coastal vibe
- unusual pool
- abundant breakfast
- many options to dine (including beach set up, fine dining, tepanyaki)
- safe and clean beach access + beds on the premises facing the beach which protects from annoying beach boys and is safe
- availability to arrange boat trips, snorkelling and other activities- very helpful and efficient
- loved other activities offered (kayaking, surf etc)
- finally just a perfect beach spot in diani
worth the money you pay - you feel extra every moment, highly recommend
After the Safari, I took a train from Amboseli to Mombasa, and then took an Uber to Diani. Swahili can be said to be one of the best hotels in this area. It is mainly a private beach with 24-hour security patrols and is relatively quiet. Other hotels basically do not have private beaches, and there are not many beach chairs near the sea on the beach. This hotel has all of them. There are also restaurants and bars on the beach. The hotel has many activities, delicious breakfast, and large rooms. It is very suitable for comfortable rest after a tiring Safari. The hotel staff are also very hardworking and serious. They will clean the seaweed on the beach early in the morning. The hotel also has corresponding beach walking and sea activities. Strong security, there is a Carrefour within walking distance at the door, which is very good. Not far away, you can take an Uber to the famous Alibaba Cave Restaurant. It is a very good resting place, suitable for a person to rest comfortably. I will come again if I have the chance.
I noticed that many reviews mention the hotel not living up to a five-star standard. However, no one seems to complain that the price doesn’t match a five-star level either. In my opinion, this is an excellent hotel for the price.
The property is spacious, the rooms are fresh and cleaned daily, and amenities like slippers and bathrobes are provided. The staff is welcoming, and the breakfast offers a great variety. From 4 to 5 PM, there’s a complimentary tea and pastries service, which is a lovely touch. The beach is beautiful, with plenty of loungers equipped with soft cushions.
This is definitely a place I would consider returning to.
