"Superb stay from start to finish. Celine the manager was lovely. So helpful throughout my stay. The rest of the staff were great especially Millicent the chef and Alice the service staff. Always smiling and happy to help. Great food from the restaurant. The rooms are spacious and well equipped. Very good kitchen area if you want to prepare meals yourself. Huge swimming pool that was well maintained. Quiet area but only a few minutes from the beach and restaurants. Highly recommended. I'll be...

"A great find! The room was spacious and well maintained, the host was lovely, and it was a close walk to numerous stalls with a variety of goods and amazing fresh produce. Having a kitchen allowed me to stay in if I wanted, but the apartment was also close to bars and restaurants. There is a close-by bar that plays loud music, but not super late, and I actually liked hearing the local music. The people I met were so friendly! And really, the host was very accommodating and responded to questions...

"The term Luxury cottage is an insult. The pictures are very misleading.This place is so run down. The staff you can tell is trying hard but obviously the owner cares nothing about customer service or being honest. Our "Luxury cottage" had no microwave, no satellite TV and the kitchen and living room were exposed to heat as there are no windows only loose screening that let lots of bugs in. The couch and beds sit on concrete reminiscent of city jail. I realize this property is in the tropics but...

Top Diani Beach Hotel Reviews

Diani Sea Lodge

8/10 Good

"I have stayed several times at this hotel as well as its sister hotel, in Diani. Last time was a few years back and the usual friendly and very helpful staff. This time the internet throughout the hotel compound worked perfectly, so a clear improvement since a the last visit. I can recommend staying here and also close to diving and surfing facilities."

Diani Sea Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Spent 3 nights, all inclusive. Food was good, drinks were great, pool was warm and clean. The room was clean and had a great view. If I ever go back to Diani I will definitely stay there again."

Nomad Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay, wish we had longer"

Saffron Villas

8/10 Good

"Environment and room were clean. 2’things to note were the ants which I found slightly invasive. One could spray the floor of the external perimeter of the doors facing the pool and patio area with a pesticide before guests arrive to keep ants out. Also towels shed a lot. So an investment in higher quality towels for the rooms would be great. Outside of these 2 issues the stay was awesome."

Leopard Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing experience. Right on the beach with a lot of an options. Included adult only pool and beach."
