We debated between this and diani reef This was great, it has 5 pools to swim in, 4 restaurants and 4 bars. The rooms were nice and clean, we were lucky to get a sea facing one. The food was very nice. The service was good, but not amazing. They have a policy on pool towels which is a bit... More

Beach in front of hotel is also ok, but a lot of people bothering you to buy things makes you rather stay at the pool area. Animation team was ok, not TOO enthusiastic, but friendly. Hotel staff was extremely... More

We spent 5 nights here after a 10 day safari in Tanzania. And I couldn't think of a better way to end our holiday! Beach was lovely, the beach boys hassled us on the first day but left us alone when told them we weren't interested, food was great and was lots of it! Bare in mind that not all... More

This hotel has it right, relaxing atmosphere, good food. The rooms were well serviced. Staff were friendly and attentive. I would recommend this hotel to anyone who wanted a relaxing holiday with some good entertainment to keep you occupied both day and night. The cheeky monkeys were an additional entertainment. More
