Pools and food

Cold air fan

The premises, the multiple pools, the sense of privacy that it gives, the service

Japanese dinner was okay

Bruv. I felt like a king staying here. Good Gahd. I spent half a leg and arm and it was worth it. Cause top to bottom, the food, the pool, the bed, the room. It's stunning. A stunning experience.

The dudes on the beach were a little ornery once they found out I'm Kenyan-American and was not going to pay western prices. They also tried to solicit my little cousin so be careful around them. They're not associated with Swahili beach but, very near. If you pay more than 100ksh for Madafu (Some of you europeans are giving these guys 3000ksh! -- My dear.. You were highway robbed. Re: Hotel-- The bathrooms looks beautiful in person but, whatever that stone is hard to clean. Bathtub didn't look great and water pressure was a little mid.

everything was fabulous we visited for our wedding anniversary.

flys at meal time on all fruit and breads as nothing was covered or refrigerated my husband got sick from it.

Overall it was a very positive experience. We liked our room, the cafe, the pool, and the spa!

The beach is artificially filled with sand. You don't see as much white sandy beach as other places in Diani. Anyhow the place is very pretty and the beach area of the hotel has its own charm to hang out.

so calm and relaxing, u feel the presence in the lobby … beautiful architecture, well designed room.

watermelon juice finished quickly at breakfast don’t get refill -

The resort exceeded my expectations! The photos do not do justice. The food, the pool, the rooms, and the staff were great! I highly recommend staying here.

The beach is not inviting, you half to walk about a half a mile to find beaches work swimming in.

Our 2nd visit to the swahili beach, and just as good as good as the 1st. It really is an excellent, well run hotel, with beautiful gardens, spacious rooms and many friendly staff. The Indian restaurant continues to be our favourite with outstanding food. Special mention to Julias, Tsofa, Samuel, Abdul, Mark in the bars and restaurants. Joy at reception,  Emanuel (Chelsea) at the pool and Grace in housekeeping.  Asante sana!

Leaving!

Amazing environment with loads of great pools and restaurants. The spa is also great, we tried hot stone massage and it was incredible.

My staying was in room 08, and practically there was no water in the shower. This is the only negative review. Other thing is that the steam room was not working as well, we want to go back n the future.

Very helpful staff. Always willing to get things done with a smile. Great location, only about 10 mins from Ukunda airstrip. Always space by the poolside and in the pools. Easy to get tables in the restaurants. Excellent choice of food, all cooked to a high standard. Comfortable, large room with excellent shower. Beautiful beach with soft white sand and lots of palm trees.

Complimentary water was in small bottles and there was never enough in the room considering the heat in Mombasa. Some of the sun loungers need attention and the beach towels have seen better days. Can take some time to get your drinks during busy periods. No air conditioning or fans in the common areas which get uncomfortably hot. Had to use the toilets to cool down at times as they have air conditioning.

incredibly beautiful and exceptionally good food

Not the best beach on Diani but the pool and beauty of the resort make up for it.

it was lovely

nothing

The hotel is beautiful with great facilities and the rooms exceptionally spacious and comfortable. Staff was extremely friendly and willing to help at all times. Lots of food choices around the hotel and a great pool!. I strongly recommend this place

The location is an issue if you want to experience the white sandy beaches you see in Diani beach pictures and dont want to spend your time in the pool. The reef in front of the hotel limits swimmers and you do not get a proper beach feeling. Nevertheless, Diani beach is very close (15 mins walk). Wifi disconnects frequently and struggles during peak hours.

The rooms where fantastic and perfectly clean. The pool area and the gardens are magnificent. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. For those who like indian food should try the spicy root restaurant in the hotel!!!

Everything was okay

It all seems good

The location was good and the pools were great. The bar food was ok and probably the best food at the resort.

The service was poor, staff were very slow in checking us in and worse rooms were not ready! When the rooms were ready, they did not place In the right number of towels and other items. The food at the Indian restaurant was poor and so was the breakfast buffet. The checking out was a farce and no one came to pick up the bags from the room.

the rooms and the staff. very friendly, helpful, kind staff all around

nothing

the property are facilities ( pools, rooms, restaurant,staff etc was great won’t take away anything from that.

the only issue we had with our room was the hot water that was malfunctioning it took 3 days before this was sorted and once our room was sorted the next door room was affected which happened to be the members of our group but it was then sorted later same day. This is why I have scored facilitates and being comfortable lower

The hospitality is A1 and makes you feel right amongst friends as if you were at home.

would recommend using the Uber and bolt apps when travelling as the hotel cabs are expensive.
