lovely beach bungalows with an amazing sea view! breakfast was really good. great value for money

because it’s directly by the beach, it can get loud at night or even in the morning. there was a burglary next to my bungalow. They kept the windows open while sleeping, just closed the fly screen, and the burglar got inside and took the laptop while they where sleeping. this can happen everywhere! So keep safe! after this incident they got more security checking the area.

I recently had a wonderful stay at Kinazi Upepo Paje. The hotel's serene location by the beach provided a truly relaxing atmosphere. The staff, especially David, was incredibly helpful and attentive to any issues or concerns I had during my stay. When I expressed the desire for a larger room, David went above and beyond to accommodate my request and upgraded me to a spacious beachfront room. The upgrade made my stay even more enjoyable, allowing me to fully appreciate the breathtaking views of the ocean. I highly recommend Kinazi Upepo Paje for its exceptional service, beautiful location, and commitment to guest satisfaction

The location is wonderful. The accommodation is beautiful The bed was comfortable The airco too Vegetarian Restaurant Upside Down of the same The Nest group i loved Breakfast was good too The view in the morning is unforgettable Housekeeping is very good

I arrived in the night.There needs to be someone 24/7 available at a resort like this, to avoid not being able accessing your acco.. (Also in low season) The electricity/ network/ WiFi is often not available. An extra generator would fix this maybe. Candles in the room or a lantern is a necessity A seating possibility outside the accommodation and a chair in the room would lift the accommodation from good to excellent. It is not easy to find the hotel as a tourist by car. Clearer road signs would help the resort being more easy to find.

We loved staying at Kinazi Upepo. The location was perfect and it felt like a little jungle oasis with all the beautiful greenery throughout. Paje can be quite busy with a lot going on but after staying for a few days we realized Kinazi was just st the perfect location. We were close enough to be able to walk to all of the most crowded places with a lot going on but just on the cusp of the end of the chaos to feel a bit more private. The room was very comfortable and clean. The bathroom was very narrow though. The AC worked perfectly and after a few issues when arriving they fixed them right away. Another bonus is their sister lodge, which is a 5 minute walk, where you can use all of their facilities. We spent a few days enjoying their pool which was stunning and super private. The breakfast Kinazi provides is really great and plentiful. It is also a couple doors down from Mr. Kahawa where we really enjoyed eating. Highly recommend!

The narrow bathroom, but it was clean and perfectly functional.

The staff were really friendly, the location and the room were so nice, we loved our stay there everything was perfect

Nothing

My experience at Kinazi Upepo Beach Hotel was truly delightful, with only minor areas for improvement Staff: The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the staff. They were incredibly welcoming, attentive, and always ready to assist with any needs or queries. Their warm hospitality made me feel at home and added a personal touch to the overall experience. Overall, Kinazi Upepo Beach Hotel is a charming place with an inviting atmosphere. I would recommend it for travelers seeking a peaceful retreat, and I hope to see further enhancements like gym facilities in the future.

We liked the location, the staff were friendly and very helpful The beach was excellent The food was very good It was vegetarian only but we didn't mind that as there was plenty of choice, also there were lots of great restaurants along the beach.

We didn't like the constant annoyance of the beach boys (fake Massai ) trying to sell you things when you are relaxing on beach. Best way to deal with them is to totally ignore them, do not say one word, or hide behind a book or pretend to be on phone. Don't even give them eye contact. The government need to control this or it could put tourists off.
