Excellent location, we stayed in ocean villa and despite the June rain, enjoyed the beach - 2 minutes walk-, the pools, in particular the infinity pool! The food at the restaurant was excellent, we enjoyed many long, lazy breakfasts and were very well taken care of by all staff in particular Fatima and Martha. Yummy fresh eggs made as you request, freshly made pancakes and waffles, fresh fruit and a selection of other breakfast foods which changed over the 5 days we were there and ranged from lentils, oxtail, soups, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, arrow roots- as well as cereals, breads, selection of pastries, bacon! So so good! One thing you can improve on was the pork sausages - they didn’t hit the spot. I suspect they were not farmers choice. Down in the bar area Collins and Janji were extremely helpful and went out of their way to help e.g. when we requested an early breakfast last minute! Collins- thank you for organising this. In housekeeping Zawadi kept our villa clean, and fresh. Julius was there to answer questions & guide us as needed. Emmanuel taught us how to wind surf, with lots of patience & grace! Can’t wait to try out my new skills again. Excellent location & facilities, friendly & welcoming staff (apologies to all the other amazing staff I’ve not mentioned). The well-being spa was great. One thing to note, the floors are a significant falls risk in the rain - good foot wear is essential! When dry, not a problem. All in all, an excellent location, excellent villa, lovely staff.

Family holiday done right

Reviewed By daniellem2

We spent 4 wonderful nights at Whitesands as a family of 3. The weather was the only disappointment on our stay and the Sarova team went above and beyond to make sure we still enjoyed our stay. Food is delicious and plentiful, definitely something for everyone. With 4 swimming pools to choose from there is a quiet space when you need one. Rooms were spacious, newly renovated and fully equipped. The best part was the all day kids club. Our daughter woke up begging to go to kids club. The animation team led by Kai keeps the kids busy all day giving parents much needed R&R. I now know why so many people rave about Whitesands. We’ll be back soon for another visit.

Baobab Resort Hotel and Spa

Reviewed By Karen O

My family, friends and I just spent a week at this beautiful resort and had the most amazing time. The facilities were great and most staff really attentive, especially James in the restaurants and Humphrey in the bar. Humphrey serves by far the best cocktails!! The accommodation was okay and as expected for Kenya but could do with brightening up and in some of the rooms not all the facilities were working, These were mainly minor things though to be honest. For anyone venturing on the beach you will be mobbed by the locals who absolutely need your business following covid. Not all are honest so please do ask for Stefan if you are interested in doing trips or jet skis, visit Moses to buy your gifts and lastly I would thoroughly recommend a massage by Mercy.

Amazing Lodge and Staff

Reviewed By Escape08689118356

We stayed for 5 nights and there are not enough words to describe what an amazing time we had at WaterLovers! The location is magical and the rooms amazing, but not enough can be said about the outstanding service provided by each and every staff member that go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable. Valentina the manager made sure we had everything we needed and also helped including airport pick up, local Tuk Tuk transport, outside restaurante recommendations, PCR tests and tours. Truly felt like royalty every step of the way. The food was excellent, we had breakfast every day as part of the stay, had lunches from the snack menu and stayed for dinner on two occasions. Everything was fresh, local and delicious! We also greatly appreciated the fact that the lodge is built and run in an eco friendly manner hiring and sourcing all its products locally. The property is located right on the beach, with sunbeds in a private setting so you do not get bothered by vendors. The room (we stayed in Lion) has a balcony and views onto the ocean, comfortable king bed with mosquito net and great local decor, AC, safe and a day bed by the window to relax and enjoy the sea view. I have stayed at many highend tropical locations, this by far exceeded all expectations. My wife and I both agreed that WaterLovers is a perfect location for our romantic getaway/late honeymoon. We both like small luxury boutique lodges and we felt like we were on a desert island with full service. We would come back here on holiday without a second thought. Thank you very much Valentina and team for such a magical stay! We will be back soon. Oksana and Thomas

Amazing Every time!

Reviewed By 653janelr

I've lost count of how many times I've been a visitor at Diani Sea Lodge and I keep returning simply because of the amazing customer service I receive each visit. The rooms are clean and comfortable though you'll find you won't spend much time indoors. It is a lovely beach front hotel with plenty of sunbeds and outside seating areas. It has two pools, one is for children. Food is tasty and there is always variety! You can request a seafood platter at a very pocket friendly cost. The bar will have all your favourites and the snack bar will keep you well fed if you don't want to go to the main restaurant. It's exactly the place you want to be for a relaxing, stress free holiday.

Hemingways Watamu

Hemingways Watamu is an iconic tropical paradise on the Kenyan coast sitting right in the middle of the pristine Watamu Marine National Park with its idyllic white sand beach and turquoise waters. The exceptional personal service and sincere charm of this established hotel has come to represent Kenyan coastal luxury to so many travellers for close to 30 years. There is so much to do here - learn to kite-surf; get your PADI certificate, take a sunset dhow cruise on Mida Creek, play a round of golf on the nearby world class golf course, Vipingo Ridge; or go on safari for a few days in Tsavo or the Maasai Mara. If that all sounds a little too energetic, relax around the pool with a good book as you work your way through our cocktail menu.

We loved the service.

Wonderful place - thoroughly recommend

Reviewed By helen56789406

A fantastic hotel and we had a wonderful experience staying there. From John, the driver who collected us from the airport, through to Joyce, Monica, Sossy and others in the restaurant, the wonderful team by the pool (Hi Christopher!) and the room staff, gardeners and security - what a friendly, organised and happy team! We really wanted for nothing. We visited with our 18 month old daughter and spent 6 glorious days at the hotel at the end of May. We were relaxing by the pool, chilling on the beach, eating the most fabulous food and I also had one of the best massages I ever had. Our daughter had the time of her life - thank you to all chefs particularly for being to friendly and kind to her, and for making her off menu lunch everyday. And to the restaurant staff who were always interacting with her and playing with her. You all made our trip so much fun and so memorable. The site is beautiful, the gardens are stunning but the best thing about Serena is the staff. They really are outstanding - authentic, kind, helpful and so full of happiness and energy! Thank you all very much.
