In short the best place I have visited in Kenya and specially on the Kenyan coast. Food, service the people all great. A place which you would want to keep visiting over and over again as you take back a lot of special moments from your holiday. Surely will be visiting again soon. Shah Family

I think it was by Edgar Alan Poe (now I'll have to check). You can read all the reviews about this hotel - they're all on the money. The food is unbelievably good in your villa. We ate in the restaurant and spent money we need not have because you can be very specific with your chef down to a... More

I'm not usually one for writing reviews but this time I have to make an exception. Almanara gave myself, my wife and our 1 year old daughter a holiday that was quite simply like no other holiday we have been on before. We were quite wary about taking our little girl to Kenya but after listening to others who had... More

Had a wonderful two weeks at Christmas with family and friends. What a beautiful place, and can honestly say it is even better than the brochure. That's got to be a first!! The staff were amazing and genuinely enjoyed working at Almanara. Nothing was to much trouble. The beach is soooo! quiet and peaceful. You will feel wonderfully rested after... More

My words will not do justice! I stayed at Almanara with my wife and our party just before Christmas and had the most amazing holiday.

Its taken too long to write this review but the memories from this fantastic week make me feel warm on a cold winters day in England. Almanara is a very special place indeed, from the fantastic setting on a beautiful beech straight out of a movie scene through to the rooms in the villas, the amazing hospitality from the staff...

Our stay at almanara was beautiful from start to finish! The setting of the resort is perfect and the views on arrival are simply magical! We had 3 dedicated villa staff who looked after us and were always there to help. My husband took full advantage of the watersport facilities whilst I relaxed round the villa pool or visited "Little... More

I had the most amazing week at Almanara in December 2012. The weather was perfect, food was amazing, staff were very hospitable and friendly. The villa we stayed in was beautiful, I couldn't fault a single thing from the airport to resort transfer to the excursions and day trips organised by Gemma and Leo. Perfect beach setting and great location... More

I have recently returned from a family trip to Kenya with my mum and sister. We began with three days on safari in the Masai Mara then had five days relaxing at Almanara. Our time at Almanara was absolutely amazing. The villa was more luxurious than we could have imagined, immaculately decorated throughout with a rooftop terrace perfect for sunbathing.... More
