The staff were very friendly and complaints were handled with lightening speed..that includes the aircon that had malfunctioned in our room..We got value for our money and that was a well deserved rest..The kitchen staff were very well trained and the fresh juice was on point,and super clean swimming pool..From here you can access places like Kilifi marine park where we got to see Dolphins,Crabshark that's synonymous to sundowner and great crab Samosas,Gedee Ruins to play with monkeys,Medina hotel that's a great place to chill out and enjoy live music,Italian pizzas in Malindi Baby marrow hotel (The best I've ever had,seafood pizza).

They can do alittle better with the food to cover those that are not vegetarians..but overall the breakfast was on point.

Disclosure of the hidden charges. Also, follow through is poor. They promised to send an email with details of our remaining cash at the hotel because we cancelled early. Our vacation was in early March. We are still waiting.
