We have just returned from a one week stay here, can honestly say we had a pleasant enough week although the weather conspired against us! Most days were dark and damp with high winds which made it difficult to enjoy going on the beach or joining in th evening entertainment which for some reason was usuallt outside where we were... more

As usual I was here for Business (off season). The Hotel is clean; it has nice rooms, good dining areas with a good selection of different foods. The thing that impressed me about the hotel was the staff from the security guards to the manager. Some one has done some serious customer service training in that hotel! Friendly, helpful and... more

We stayed at this property which was 20% occupied in the high season at an extremely agreeable rate. The election violence scared off almost all of their bookings so by the time we arrived, it was clear they were hurting for business. I have stayed here before so their exceptional attention to detail did not change despite the difficulties they... more

I hate North Coast and my experience with Bamburi had left a bitter taste in my mouth about the quality of hotel in the area. However, this hotel was clearly a cut above the rest! I loathe large hotels but we knew that the occupancy was down so what better time to try it out! Booked the hotel through the... more

Good clean resort hotel, good size pool, average quality food in restaurants (pizza better than average). Tusker beer served extra chilled at the pool /beach bar everytime. Some live music and occasionally alfresco dining. Beach not cleanest and thus uninviting but pool compensates. Watersports and diving aplenty. more

The rooms are in the process of refurbishment, not that I spend long in them. Food is the main dining room is international and very good. The minazi... more
