Hotel staf was perfect, not too importunate and very helpful and friendly. Beach was kept clean and security did not let local people to bother vacationers. Food was excellent. Location is great, directly on beach with white sand and quite close to shopping centers and far enough from bigger cities. I would want to emphasize the size of the hotel... More

We stayed at Diani Sea Resort in February 2012, had a fantastic stay here, the staff were lovely and did every thing to make your holiday enjoyable, food was fab, lots of choice, as previously mentioned the only bug bear is the signing for drinks, even water, didn't think this was necessary. Our room was clean with fresh bedding and... More

Small issue with our bedroom and after sorting the problem with the duty manager we were asked to vist the General Manger George the next day in... More

We stayed here in August 2011 in two adjacent rooms for two adults & 3 teenage children. The hotel itself was lovely & clean. The rooms although a little tired were spotlessly cleaned every day. The hotel grounds & gardens were abundant with flowering shrubs, trees & wildlife. The presence of the native monkeys was always a welcome sight &... More

We booked the Diani Sea resort for our honeymoon as it was great value for money, for Kenya. We were greeted with flower lathes and coconut drinks, our room had elaborate flower decorations on the door and on our bed which was lovely but we never got our free bottle of wine. The staff were on the whole very welcoming... More

We have just got home from DSR. We had a fantastic holiday, Weather great, as was the food, accommodation and entertainment. Some of the staff at the pool bar could do with smiling a bit! I had a manicure and pedicure on sight. Do ask for the younger of the two ladies as I found her to be the best... More

Stayed at this hotel over Christmas. It has a quirky garden that is almost jungle like to give you that African Safari feeling. Snack bar was excellent and the food in the main restaurant was good as long as you didnt go in too late when you were basically given what was left. Service was good. Rooms were large and... More
