I loved all of it. A quiet and very relaxing resort with really friendly staff of Tino, Sammy, Millie, Rufus and all others who always makes you feel like a friend every day. I had a problem with getting a lot of mosquito bites so bring repellant!!! Apart for the mosquitoes everything was great 👍

A beautiful place. The house is beautiful, large, and superbly equipped. The host (George) took great care of us. He arranged boat transportation from Shimoni to the island and a tour of the Kisite-Mpunguti Marine Park (only our family, George, the captain, and the guide, were on the boat). He organized a walking tour of the island and village, which was fascinating. He can also arrange transportation to Mombasa at a very attractive price. George arranged home-cooked meals by a woman from the village, which were delicious. There are no cars on the island, and it maintains its quiet beauty, and one can walk around the area and meet some friendly people. The island's people have managed to preserve their heritage, and you can learn about their traditions, daily life, language, and traditional coastal seafood. A unique experience away from mass tourism. I highly recommend it.

The lodge is situated in an absolutely stunning location, offering a serene and tranquil environment that is perfect for peace, introspection, and reconnecting with nature. The setting is truly breathtaking, with a sense of quiet that allows guests to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the surroundings. The staff’s warmth, care, and attention to detail are truly commendable. A special mention goes to JACOB and DINAH, whose exceptional hospitality and professionalism made our stay unforgettable. Their dedication to ensuring every aspect of our experience was seamless is deeply appreciated. We were particularly impressed by the lodge’s commendable efforts in coral reef restoration, addressing the impact of bleaching, and its commitment to education and advocacy for marine conservation. This initiative adds a meaningful layer to the already wonderful experience, allowing guests to witness and support the positive impact of sustainable practices. We will certainly return and highly recommend this lodge to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a purpose. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so memorable!

Amazing place! We even got a room upgrade: we booked the cottage and we were offered to go to Hemingways suite which was absolutely fantastic, with a private pool on the rooftop. The pools, both the private and the shared ones, were clean and nice. The staff is very kind and always available: they can recommend good and convenient options for visiting the marine national park. The lodge is on a beach with mangroves: don't expect to chill on the white sand of Diani, it's completely a different environment, with mangrove ecosystems and lot of conservation efforts. The food was also good. We ate abundantly at dinner and breakfast, and the staff was available to satisfy our requests and exigencies. The restaurant on the terrace, with sofa, and lot of books, makes it a perfect place to chill and relax. You can reach the KWS office (to take the boat for the marine park with a 15-minutes walk through Shimoni Village, which is small but super characteristic. We highly suggest to visit it for a very local experience. The Shimoni Slaves Caves are less than 10 minutes walking. Strongly recommended and thanks a lot for such nice hospitality.

A little bit of unspoilt tropical heaven! No mains water hook up to the mainland, meaning no running water, but the bucket shower was fun and fine, in the little private bathroom. Very happy here - would recommend.

The hotel is simple but nice for relaxing after an ocean safari. The room was clean (no insects). There is an outdoor terrace. The staff was nice and warm. The water pressure in the shower was low, but that’s normal for Africa. In addition, there is no water on the island, they use rainwater and bring water from the mainland for drinking. The food was delicious – fish, crab, prawns, etc. The hotel is not on the ocean, the hotel is on the second line. We went to the hotel because we wanted an ocean safari. The hotel manager Ally organized a very nice full day ocean safari – coconut crab island, dolphin tour, coral gardens and also a small island tour. Ally also organized a transfer – by tuk-tuk from the highway to Shimoni port and then by boat from Shimoni to Wasini Island. I recommend it if you want an ocean vacation.

I love how one enters into a preserved forest to then discover a central area of unique spaces: including a pool that feels like a jungle oasis! There is a traditional makuti roof bar, a central firepit for evening gatherings, meditation space, and tables scattered for private or social candle lit dinners. All of this accompanied by the soundtrack of the forest including bush babies. The entire space embodies freedom and creativity with wall art, one off product designs, and other art made by the resident artist. Rooms are all unique and I was lucky to stay in the mosaic room... The staff welcomes you in ways that makes it feel like you have entered their personal home; they are grounded, warm and professional. I appreciated their calm presence. I attended a "self-inquiry" workshop one day which was a beautiful opportunity to connect both with other guests and people from the local village. Not to be forgotten the direct beach access for watching the sun rise or early morning walks...to me it was the perfect place to reconnect.✨

I had a truly amazing experience at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm, professional, and incredibly attentive. The room was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The breakfast buffet was delicious with a great variety of options. One of the highlights of my trip was the special excursion to Shale Island – it was breathtaking and perfectly organized by the hotel. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for luxury, comfort, and exceptional service.
