I've stayed at almost all the best hotels in across diani and Swahili beach is my favourite. Amazing staff, exceptional services and quick response to any problems or issues you may have. Big thanks to Rose the manager and all the staff working in the resort. Loved the food choices between the different restaurants at swahili beach. Coming back very soon

I was sorely disappointed because I expected a 5-Star as the resort purports itself to be. The beach is NASTY, full of rocks and seaweed which workers attempt to sweep for at least 4 hours every morning. The pools are DIRTY except the one at the very bottom and the service was lacking because I had to keep calling the front desk for assistance with housekeeping. I’d had surgery so I needed my room cleaned as early as 10am everyday of my 7-night stay, but it still wouldn’t be cleaned by 4pm! I’ll just go back to Pride-Inn and the North Coast resorts.

The staff are amazing. All very helpful and patient. Allowing me to check out at the time required (10am) but stay until 230pm and use the pool and take a shower at the spa for no extra cost was truly special and so appreciated.

Dirty disgusting swimming pools
The pools were dirty and disgusting. The property is receiving payment from me and other guests everyday. Why is the swimming pool staff Not giving cleaning service when necessary ? ? Why is the building next to us so black and disgusting ? I will suggest a good power wash and new coat of paint. Rainwater causes mildew stains over time. Now it is an eyesore. Please clean your swimming pools,even on Sunday. Thank you for your concern. Your loving pride and joy client.

There is almost no beach. Mainly rocks… impossible to walk on the beach and completely to swim. Also bothered none stop by vendors. Service is extremely slow. Full pension is actually limited in terms of food and end paying double often. Security is a major issue. No control on who get out no even on kids. Everything becomes a surcharge even for mayonnaise!

The weekend relaxing
It was an amazing relaxing long weekend for us. Every need dealt with by the hotel quickly and effortlessly. The food was simply divine. Well done you. If there was something that would improve the hotel then it would be the inclusion of some swim up rooms.
