Villa Ameera Malindi ★★★★

📍 Frangipani Road, Malindi

"The hotel offered no food or drinks, the air conditioning was incredibly noisy (like a tractor), and it was a ten-minute walk to buy a bottle of water in a very remote location. Plus, it didn't support Glovo."

Diamonds Malindi ★★★★

📍 Casuarina Rd, Malindi

"The restaurant team. Bravo bravo bravo. I couldn't wait for meal times just for the warm greetings and the warm interactions. My bad for not getting names but I'd definitely be back because of the restaurant service team. The guy who does gymnastics in the pool my mum is greatful as well(he was off on Monday we couldn't say goodbye. The security guard who received us when we came and most time guarded us when we were at the beach( brilliant young light man). Shaban thank you for the suprise cocktails. Just a little improvement at check in. Give all necessary details especially for first time guests."

Exploreans Beach Club & Villas Watamu ★★★

📍 Mayungu Road, Malindi

"The hotel is fantastic!!! We absolutely loved it! We initially booked for one day, but then decided to extend it for another day. It's best to buy an all-inclusive package, as the hotel is located far from amenities. But if you're traveling with a group or on your honeymoon, this is perfect. The staff is polite and friendly, the food is delicious, the amenities are excellent, and of course, the price is great. The only thing I might not like is the hot water. It's warm, perfect for showering during the day, but cool in the evening."

Kenyan House Malindi

"We were so excited and booked and paid with no balances.We loved the pool and the attendant is kind.the ambiance is okay but requires proper maintaining of furniture. However, the carpets and rooms were dusty and the kitchen was worse. The bathrooms were dirty and drainage is wanting and no shower water how can guests complain and get a hard look with their concerns not addressed!! The host needs to do better with the staff or fire and hire professional staff. Generally we were disappointed and didnt feel we got value for our money."

"Had the worst experience in our stay here over the Christmas holidays. The lady host was extremely rude. Lied on availability of different facilities that we had enquired about before booking. She wouldn't take any feedback positively and was always defensive and rude. I would rate it 0 if it was an option. Stay here at your own risk!"

"The review is incredibly easy to write, lounging at the gorgeous pool, feeling a cool breeze. The accommodation is basic but very clean and affordable, with multiple fans in the rooms and hot showers. The location is a bit difficult to find at night but easy to navigate along Casuarina road with all the restaurants within easy access. The staff have been excellent, friendly and laid back. "

"The room had old-fashioned wooden furniture, no TV, a small refrigerator, and no slippers provided. You had to ask the staff at the front desk for toothbrushes. There were quite a few small insects, especially flies; they would even eat while you were eating. The hotel wasn't large, but the environment was quite comfortable."

The Lawford Kenya ★★★
"Arriving at Lawford is a unique experience in itself. The typical local roof, which overlooks the reception area and leads to the lush garden, is a work of art. The villas and rooms are spread out amidst the greenery, so you never feel like you're in a crowded hotel. The restaurant's cuisine, with its Italian flair, is truly worth it. The two large pools surrounded by greenery are very pleasant (and always clean). I stayed in a villa: a private pool and elegant Kenyan-style furnishings made for a super vacation!"
