I loved the Swahili decor! Nicely maintained gardens, different food options. Would not recommend for children. Beach not the best but everything else including amazing spa facilities —excellent.

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!

Just Book It, Seriously The Swahili Experience. I spent 7 full days at this amazing resort. It was the best Diani has to offer. EVERYTHING is better than the pictures. The rooms are spacious, the pools a large and many, the food choices are plenty, and the spa is a must! I'm going to name drop because it was that good I had to keep a list. This is not to say other staff aren't amazing, but these are the staff that made my experience one for the books! The F&B Staff led by Junas: Daizy, Paul, Twahir, Sila, Clemence, and Hoka never missed a beat from breakfast to lunch to dinner. The Spa - there is not need to name drop, every single person in the Spa is !!!!!!! You must book the Swahili Experience at the Spa. The entire pool staff were thee keepers of the vibe! They keep the pool clean and ready! Morris is guest relation is a whole vibe! He literally is there to make sure you are living it up!! I don't have kids, I was there on a solocation, however, the entertainment staff......they were AMAZING! They kept the kids busy, allowing me to chat with cools moms! The music, the activities, the friendliness, and the safety! The accountant and cashier, Francis is always one to know. He keeps very good records, there was no funny business with the billing! He literally keeps everything running smooth! Such a pleasure at check out. The Owners - I love them! They are couple goals! They pay attention to maintenance, and they listen! I will be back!
