[Chris83, 09/08/2011] First of all it is a great place for everyone seeking pure tranquility and some time to relax. It is not far from everything, the beach is beautiful and less crowded by beachboys who can become quite a pain.
The place is more than tidy and the bedrooms are spacious. The owners are extremely nice and gave us a briefing at the first day to avoid pitfalls and explained where to buy certain groceries, souveniers etc. and where to better leave it.
I bumped my head and had to see the doctors for some stitches. The owners reacted very quickly and brought me to a local clinic which was specialised in

[dosimba, 23/11/2010] As hotelier and a local kenyan now studying tourism / resort in Leeds UK ,i think the hotel bring holiday theme closer to tourist well keeping with the interest of local communities.A unique boutique safari that should be experienced by all.
[Tembo, 17/11/2008] For anyone visiting Diani Beach, this beach bar is a must. Its situated about half way along the Diani beach strip so within walking distance of most of the Diani beach hotels. Alternatively by road, matatus stop on the main road and then its a short walk down a lane to the beach.
The beach bar is built with a traditional makuti roof, right on the beach. Inside there are huge comfy traditional sofas and huge cushions - just right for lying out on - low coffee tables are on hand to put your ice cold glass of Tusker on. The floor is sand.
There's a pool table and dart board for the ene

[NienhuisE, 28/11/2007] Is this hotel a paradise or not?
I would say maybe if you are a white tourist but when you are a black I would place a big question mark. Its unbelievable but the first time I arrived at this hotel I enjoyed my stay. The next visit with my wife, who is black, I noticed that they are discriminating which is unacceptable for me.
There are a few examples that I can give but the most annoying was that my wife was left outside during a short walk to a small shop just outside the hotel. I had to come to the gate and tell the askari (security) that its really my wife before she was allowed to ent

[trivago traveller, 03/01/2007] avoid the local beach boys, if approached just tell them you dont want to buy anything or that you dont like wooden animals, jewellery ect...you will be ripped off badly! ...dont shake hands as they approach, this act seems to initiate some kind of buisness deal...and if asked to go to the village...dont go, my girlfriend and daughter were terrified and we all felt very intimidated....crocodile smiles..
[NienhuisE, 22/11/2006] The last time I visit this hotel was in June 2005. I have seen this hotel growing since the last nine years that I visit Kenya yearly. In the beginning it had nothing but the description below shows that nowadays it is a nice small resort with all necessary facilities you need. After a drive of 40 minutes from Moi International Airport in Mombasa you arrive at the entrance of the hotel.
GENERAL:
This nicely build hotel in typically African style is very nice to see between all the big resorts. When entering the lobby you will find yourself directly between the guests who are enjoying th
