An amazing hotel, with unforgettable experience great service and the amenities are perfect for a couples getaway. A perfect getaway to connect with nature and your loved ones. Would definitely want to return back. Special thanks to Salum ( our butler) for an amazing experience and taking such great care of us even when he was fasting for ramadan!

Beautiful accommodation with an extremely nice butler, Salum. Reception, however, was poor: my birthday was forgotten despite multiple notifications.

An amazing stay at the Kilindi. The hotel and its grounds are stunning, beach tropical beautiful in high tide, and the food exquisitely prepared and the best we have had in any hotel we have stayed at. This is a luxury boutique hotel and you are made to feel as if you are an exclusive guest. What makes this hotel incredible is the warmth, kindness and levels of service from all of the staff at the Kilindi who made this the most special, memorable holiday we have been on,particularly as this stay was for my wife's special birthday and the staff went out of their way to make her birthday stay extra special for her. A big special mention to Lillian our special hostess throughout our 7 night stay who was amazing and also to Abdul and Julieth whose service was exceptional, but all the staff were so friendly and amazing. Thankyou also to Said the General Manager for running such a wonderful hotel and for your welcome. This is a must stay hotel if you are looking for luxury, delicious food, exceptional service in a quiet boutique hotel where you are made to feel as though you are the only guests that matter. We hope to be back. Well done to the Kilindi.

Excellent luxurious experience. So very relaxing. Service was the best (5 star). Our butler, Salehe, met our every need. We did Dhow boat sunset and couples massage with facials. They were also fantastic. Can’t wait to come back. Sunsets are awesome.

Our stay here could not have been better. Everyone, from the moment we arrived, sought to make us welcome and comfortable. My wife has celiac disease and the staff made everything with such care and made her feel very safe eating everything served. The grounds are impeccable, the beach lovely, and the rooms a mini resort themselves. Have to mention Witness and Victoria who made our stay extra special with their attention and care. Syed and Megan have a wonderful staff and are easy to find any time you might need something extra. Sad to be leaving paradise here but so happy and thankful we got to experience it to cap off our safari honeymoon and anniversary.

Absolutely Incredible! ♥️ Words can hardly do justice to how wonderful our experience at Kilindi was. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel completely at ease thanks to the exceptional care and warmth of Safina and Juleith. Their attentiveness, kindness, and genuine hospitality truly made our stay unforgettable. We were equally impressed by the exquisite food, refreshing drinks, and the stunning room — every detail was a perfect 10/10. It was more than just a getaway; it was a deeply memorable experience that we'll treasure forever. Thank you, Kilindi, for making our stay so special. We will absolutely be returning — and recommending you to all our friends!
