Very helpful staff with plenty recommendations. Food is great. Jambiani beach has plenty to do from snorkelling to diving. The tide is out in the morning but you can walk out to it and still swim, and see the sea creatures in the leftover pools. Room cleaning is only by request but done well.

Roberto and his wife are great hosts and support you with booking trips, getting drivers or just to answer questions or give recommendations. The rest of the staff was also great. Amazing food and breakfast. The rooms were nice and comfy. It really exceeded my expectations and definitely worth a visit.
LeonSolo traveller - Avg. price/night: £108.138.8Scored 8.8FabulousRated fabulous· 242 reviewsWe had a wonderful eight days at Driftwood and probably had the most relaxed holiday of our lives. Days were spent meandering between the beach on the doorstep, pool and sun beds. Uishi and Dricus were great hosts together with all of the staff we encountered. Food was also excellent and very well priced. The bungalows may be described as rustic but met all of our needs.
