Pinewood is very remote - be prepared for a hot bumpy ride from the airport - we had travelled from the masai mara and were really tired when we eventually arrived. Our pick up home was very early too as the queue for the ferry can be long so we spent a long time waiting at the airport. But once... More

My husband and I stayed at Pinewood for the 3rd time september 2011 to relax after an awesome 11 day safari with www.wildlife-kenya.org ( Local safari company down the road from Pinewood. This company is well worth checking out if you plan to go on safari. The owner, Antony, will taylormake a safari to suit your personal wishes - and... More

We spent a week at Pinewood from 19 March 2012 which followed on from a brilliant safari at Mara Intrepids camp. No complaints at all about the hotel; lovely grounds and our room was very comfortable and well equipped.Treated very well by all the staff. The food was first rate,lots of variety with themed nights. Special mention should be made... More

We finished a 10-days tour in Kenya in the Pinewood beach resort & spa for 2 nights, after 8 nights spent in the best lodges of the different national parks. Our first impression was very disappointing. The front building where stands the reception has no style at all, like the reception itself and the furnitures. The staff uniforms look like... More

A thoroughly enjoyable time in a peaceful and laid-back setting on the most spectacular white sandy beaches. The most significant asset of the hotel/resort was the staff, who were incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming- from the beach bar staff to the front of house. The accomodation was squeaky clean, and the ammeneties were everything you'd expect from a top-class beach... More

My now husband and I stayed here in June 2011 (I know perhaps a little slow on the reviewing here). Our stay at Pinewood followed the most amazing Safari at Governors Camp in the Masi Mara (see other reviews) and was the perfect way to relax after what had been 2 rather fraught wedding weeks. My initial impression of the... More

My absolute favourite on the South Coast of Mombasa. As a Kenyan resident I have been a regular client here for 5 years now, and although I regret a bit the fact that this hotel is now included in the 'package tours' from abroad, it still is a very relaxing place with a gorgeous beach, nice food, very nice staff...

We stayed at Pinewood in February 2012 and loved every minute of it. It's a perfect place for a family to relax and have some peace and quiet. The staff were very friendly and welcoming,service was excellent ! The food was amazing as was the choice. We specially enjoyed Nancy's pancakes and waffles including full breakfast with fresh fruit in... More

In 2002, we took my 80 year old parents here for a safari "kidogo" (a little trip). We sought warmth, a human touch, and not too much discomfort for old bones, and were very successful. I am glad to see Pinewood is still thriving. We've been to all kinds of places (deluxe, medium, cheap, and local) on the coast of... More
