We stayed at the Safiya for two nights which passed way too quickly. The room was clean, cool and it had everything we needed including TV and AC. The staff was super nice and helpful, thanks to them we found some amazing hidden gems in the area. Breakfast at the hotel is yummy and one night we also had dinner at their restaurant and really enjoyed the food. The hotel is nicely calm, we slept very well and the beach can be reached by foot in only 5 min.

We just came back from Mzima Beach, where we stayed for 9 days, and honestly, it was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve ever had. The place itself is beautiful, but what really made it special were the people. Everyone was so kind and truly went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and happy. Room service was just perfect — always on time, incredibly attentive, and everything was spotlessly clean. You could tell how much care and pride they put into every little detail. Coming back to a beautifully made room every day felt so comforting. Charles, the manager, was absolutely fantastic — always smiling, full of life, and spreading so much positive energy around. He really made the whole experience shine. My husband also had a deep tissue massage from Emely, and she was absolutely amazing. She really knows what she’s doing — professional, caring, and so skilled. He felt completely relaxed and renewed afterward. Mzima Beach isn’t just a beautiful place to stay — it’s a place filled with heart. The people there make all the difference. We left with so much gratitude and so many happy memories.

Choosing Baobab for a beach holiday was the best decision ever!!! From the very first minute of our stay, we felt so much care and attention - everything was super comfortable. Everyone is cheerful and always ready to help. The territory of the hotel is large and beautiful, with three amazing pools, water activities, Zumba, football, volleyball, and much more - so you’re not going to get bored. The food at the all-inclusive restaurants is delicious, with a good variety. Every restaurant has ocean views from the window tables. Every evening there are creative performances by the talented Jambo Team 😍 The beautiful beach is very close and you can see it from your hotel room. It’s a paradise vacation, highly recommend!!! 🔥❤️

Measures against mosquitos. The food was perfect, variety of dishes and of good quantity. The staff was very eager to serve us and took a great care of us. Thank you Ocean Village Club!

I can only repeat what I wrote in my previous review when I stayed at this place two years ago. It is a private paradise, my absolute favourite place to stay when traveling. It is the perfect place if you want peace and quiet. Housekeeping comes when you need it, not when a schedule says so. There are restaurants and shopping opportunities just across the road, a 2-minute walk.

Diani Beach is a beautiful white-sand beach with lots of restaurants around, making it easy to get meals for lunch or dinner. The thing I did not like about Diani Beach was the number of sellers who were selling things and were a bit aggressive in doing so. There were so many of them; they did not leave us alone. They sold everything from bracelets to offering trips to the nearby Marine National Park.

Perfect.

Perfect. I wrote a previous outstanding review but Booking.com only posted my two comments from “suggested improvements”, which were inconsequential but gave a negative impression. The property was lovely, steps from an amazing white sandy beach fringed with coconut palms. I loved lolling on the comfy cushions on the roof terrace in the evenings. Cecilia who looked after us was amazing and a great cook. Her fish curries were to die for. The bed was comfy and the mosquito nets a great asset. The community pool was well maintained with a fabulous on site masseuse, Habiba. Amazing relaxing vacation would highly recommend.

The spirit at Kaya Kwetu is one of love and tranquility and, together with the constant sounds of the waves and the birds, feels a bit paradise-ish. Lindsay and her team are very attentive and helpful from first contact, special food requirements, transport options and late checkout. The creativity and vibe of the unique rooms has one transported into another world and it's all relaxation and connecting with nature. From the "jungle pool" to the beach walks and healthy meal options, a stay at Kaya feels like rejuvenation therapy :-)

Powdery white sand that is very easy to walk on.

Powdery white sand that is very easy to walk on. The reef about 500-600m offshore breaks the outer waves so inside the reef is moderately calm. Water shoes recommended due to sea urchins in some areas. A nice beach for walking, but you will be approached by vendors. A polite 'no' is usually sufficient. Several excellent places to eat along the stretch of beach where we stayed - Nomad's, Faulty's at the Flamboyant, Ali Barbour's Cave (reservation required), and Asha Boutique (Friday night beach buffet).
