Baobab Beach Resort & Spa ★★★★

📍 Diani Beach Road, Diani Beach

"Located by Diani Beach, right by the ocean, allowing for great views of the Indian Ocean along the property's long beachfront. The grounds are well-maintained and secure. My room was of a high standard, clean and of sufficient size with all required amenities. The staff were warm and welcoming, from Reception to the main/ KaribuRestaurant. I particularly remember Kayulu who carried my bag to my room. Pleasant fellow, always smiling. It was my first time here. Loved it. I would come back another time for a longer holiday. Ended too soon."

Swahili Beach

Swahili Beach ★★★★★

📍 Ukunda, Diani Beach Road, Diani Beach

"1. The decoration style of the room is Arabic style, and it is very clean and comfortable overall. 2. The beach is the hotel's private beach. There are staff who have been cleaning up the washed up seaweed, and there is no promotion. The overall feeling is very good. 3. The hotel's buffet and a la carte dishes are both delicious, covering European and Asian dishes."

📍 MHVH+7W6, Diani Beach Road, Diani Beach

"Overall, it's a decent all-inclusive hotel. It's on the beachfront, with a clean sandy beach and some sea grass. The staff is very friendly. The food is a bit repetitive and lacks variety. Checkout is at 10am, which is disappointing."

Diamonds Leisure Beach & Golf Resort ★★★★★
"The room was decent, not very big, but relatively new. The restaurant was delicious with a wide variety of dishes, and the seaside seats had a beautiful view. The swimming pool was so-so; the water wasn't very clean. The beach was excellent, quite clean, and suitable for swimming."

Swahili Beach ★★★★★
"@风花雪月, Mombasa Diani Beach has many resorts, and Swahill is known as the best. Except for the interior details of the room, the overall Arabic decoration style is unique and beautiful. Kenyan Swahili culture and Arab culture occupy an important position. The hotel integrates the two cultural elements in the design. There are all kinds of gauze curtain beds scattered around the yard. Find time to sleep 😂 Breakfast and dinner are all included, and there are many flavor restaurants to choose from. The live band in the buffet restaurant is so good that I sat for two hours. Kenya's hotels, restaurants, drivers, and property service staff surprised me. They are well-trained, polite and thoughtful, with sincere, warm and sunny smiles, which makes us who are defensive and poker-faced in China now smile and say Jambo when we see people!"

"We had a ocean facing room which was very nice. The hotel is old but has been maintained well. Staff are friendly and helpful. The property has many old baobab trees which add to the charm of the property."

Mzima Beach Residences - Diani Beach ★★★★
"It was the best weekend in Diani Beach Kenya – a reminder of this little beach town in the sun at its most open, vibrant and welcoming. After two days immersed in The B.A.G, eating too much food, drinking coconut water, bumping into old friends from the city, and skanking to Amapiano, Afrobeats, reggae and dancehall, I was left smiling at an event that has culturally crossed the YouTube screens into a music odyssey of big tune selections, dazzling 'baddies', premium ambience, and a lavish experience powered by Hennessy. It was a celebration of contemporary East African youth culture. Saturday belonged to nostalgia. The triumphant intro of DJ Lyta's "Hot Grabba" nostalgic intro announced the live set recording on Saturday night, day one of the festival. That unmistakable introduction.For many Kenyans, the opening seconds of DJ Lyta's Hot Grabba mixes are instantly recognisable. They belong to an era when reggae and dancehall mixtapes were passed from phone to phone, burned onto CDs and played in matatus, hostels and barbershops across the country. Diani-based DJ Scrappie had masterfully opened the party with his impeccable, high-energy selections after some technical hitches with the sound and power. DJ Lyta has been a voice of Reggae and Dancehall since the early 2010s – a procession of millennials and Gen Z crowds pay respect to his "Hot Grabba" mix series.  In 2023, Lyta reflected on the impact of Hot Grabba Vol. 2, released in May 2013:  "This Mix Hot Grabba Vol 2 Changed My Life... I duplicated CD copies and took them to the streets and the rest is history."  More than a decade later, that history still resonates. Flanked by a bevy of beauties, DJ Lyta, who was announced weeks earlier as the headline act for the opening night, lived up to expectations making the foundations of the stage tremble with classic Caribbean dancehall. Afrobeats, Kenya's rebel Arbantone and Gengetone sounds dominated his set. Classic Caribbean dancehall blended with Afrobeats, Gengetone and Arbantone in a set that constantly shifted between generations. Every pull-up drew louder cheers. Every reload became another shared memory. Songs people hadn't heard in years suddenly returned with every lyric intact. The brutally fashionable crowd grinds and dances all night long with Lyta putting a packed crowd on the sand through its paces. Each corner offered another pocket of intimacy, joy and community. This night instilled camaraderie within friend groups, especially in the quieter moments. Groups wandered between the bars, the beachfront and the dancefloor. The best events create memories on stage; the greatest ones create them between strangers. Meanwhile, DJ Malaika was on point veering off into mixing Afropop, Bongo and Kenyan party anthems into a crowd-pleasing, spectacular morning dash toward a Diani Galu Beach sunrise set. As dawn approached, DJ Malaika guided the remaining crowd.Sunday unfolded differently. Where Saturday celebrated nostalgia, Sunday celebrated"

Tombo House ★★★★
"Not easy to find, but it was worth it. Very professionally run by a German couple. The rooms are sensational; everything is new and extremely spacious (65m2), and we had a large balcony with a fantastic view of the jungle. Every detail is perfect: a comfortable, large bed, Grohe fixtures with a rain shower, a great breakfast, and friendly staff. Air conditioning costs $15 per day, but at the end of June, we didn't need it. The hotel isn't on the beach, but it's nice and quiet, and it feels like home. We were absolutely satisfied."
