The property is far from the beaches and priced as a beachfront property. Even when you cross the street and get to the sea, reaching the lovely beaches takes about 15 - 20 minutes. The restaurant is overpriced to the point of ridiculousness. The „fruit plate” costs 700 shillings and consists of one thin slice of watermelon, a little piece of mango, pineapple, and 1/4 of a banana 😬 I have attached a picture of their signature „fruit plate.” I don’t have a problem paying for a good service or quality. Still, something like this is like a slap in the face: nobody in Europe would pay 6 EUR for one tiny piece of watermelon and 1/4 of a banana, which is quite apparent. The female receptionist is rude. When we were checking out and my daughter was putting the tip into the tip box, she glanced and gazed, checking how much it was (20 USD), and sighed in disapproval.

The property is immaculate inside and out, with very nice African decor. The swimming pool is large and sparkling clean, and most of the staff members are polite.

It's a little bit of on the wrong side of the road compared to the beach.

That it's a smaller hotell with only 10 rooms. That makes it more of a stay at home feeling and you get to know the staff.

Value for money could be better. Walk down the path to reach the property. Wait for food is very very long

Beautiful private pool. Clean. Great food

The bathroom has only a curtain as a door. The service was really slow and scarce during the day at the pool. The breakfast and dinner options could do with a bit more variations.

What a hidden gem! We spent a whole week because it was so quiet and good. The rooms are spacious and clean. The pool is big and the garden is well maintained. The hotel only has about 10 rooms and we had a few nights where we were the only guests or only 2-3 rooms booked, which was good for us but bad for the hotel and employees. I hope they get more work in high season. The breakfast was ok but every day the same: eggs and bacon, fruits, toast, oats, pancakes. The restaurnat in the evening was excellent in quality but a bit expensive in comparison to outside restaurants. But I would definitely book again. And all personnel were very nice and accomodating.

We've stayed in multiple Kenyan rooms and could not figure out hot water- with the humidity, you don't really need it. We got used to tepid water for our showers. The water pressure was great. The pool is open from 8am-6pm only- no evening dips which would've felt refreshing after a long day out. On the positive side, this kept the facility quiet and calm.

You will receive everything you expect from a stay rated 9+/10!!! The beds are comfortable. The rooms, pool, and grounds are well maintained. The pool is very large and deep for those who enjoy swimming. There is shade available all day if you like to relax. The air conditioning works well in the room and is maintained - no musty smell. The beach is a 5-7 minute walk across the road. The breakfast is good. We also had dinner one evening which was also exceptional- but opted to eat out and explore the area the rest of our trip.

The rooms are clean, the furniture is new, the facility is well-maintained, the staff is friendly and helpful, the pool is clean, and having an espresso machine in the room is a nice treat. I will go again.

Toiletries provided were not quite sufficient. The air-con also went off when the power supply was disrupted overnight. The place is not near the beach (or anything really) so you have to uber around - that was not a problem for me, but it's worth knowing. Stuff looks like its nearby, but you can't really walk anywhere in the heat, and through the isolated/ bushy surrounds of the property

My suite was exquisite. Spacious, air-conditioned, impeccably prepared. The bed was massive and very comfortable, and I enjoyed having the option of taking a dip in my private pool. I used the larger communal pool in the daytime. The art/ decor is amazing throughout. Staff were really pleasant and helpful - shout out to the lady and gentleman at reception and Alan at the pool

The architecture - in the Swahili style - is beautiful; and the property is well maintained. The swimming pool is a highlight with shaded seating and fresh towels. Service was discrete and friendly. The restaurant served delicious food in a lovely setting. Highly recommended for couples and small groups.

I usually stay here when I come to Diani. It's a small boutique hotel, the most tastefully decorated place I have found in the area – just gorgeously simple, with attention to small details. The staff are so friendly it feels like home and really go out of their way to make sure I have a good stay every time. The food was delicious and fresh, and the beds and pillows are super comfy, which is quite a rare find!

Very good breakfest and delicious dinner with multiple options on each evening. Dining options included also african dishes, all with supreme quality and very tasty. Swimming pool was spaceous and well cleaned in constant cycle. Very supportive and friendly staff.

The attention to detail in this gem of a hidden oasis; staff who are delightful, caring, and impeccably good at their jobs; the sense of a Shangri-la amid Diani's bustling and beautiful community. Great food, spotlessly clean, safes and AC in each room. I love it all.

That is did not stay longer!

This hotel overpass all my expectations. I wish I could stay more. It is beautiful, great design and a very peaceful environment. I strongly suggest to stay here. It was very pleasant.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

The rooms were clean, beddings changed daily with housekeeping, the huge pool, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Complimentary soft drinks and water in the mini fridge that were refilled daily was a plus. The property itself is very beautiful and breathtaking, very serene and quiet.

Lovely decor, great artwork, attention to detail. Boutique style ambiance, fantastic garden and pool area. Our room was fabulous, own private terrace with outdoor bath ( filled either bubble bath and rose petals on valentines night) , all the staff were great - super friendly and very helpful. We really loved our stay in The Villa and Diani Beach is a great wee town with utterly amazing beaches! I would highly recommend staying in the Villa Luxury Suites Hotel.
