    ✓Dirty Pool 😒🙄... Keep the filters on & get a professional to help you keep the pool clean always. ✓Door Locks for Room 206 wasn't working..but John the Property Manager helped us get a better room. ✓Poor Wifi Signal .. ✓ Work with neighboring property owners to clean the pool... The beach is mostly coral at the shore so not as enjoyable. You can however walk further and experience the more sandy and clear water sections of the beach during low tide. The rooms need their locks checked, replaced or sprayed with WD40.. they would jam at times. The common area balcony on the 2nd floor has a lovely view of the ocean but the glass railing is wobbly and therefore hazardous. The WiFi is unstable despite them seeking to have boosters on every floor and every room. The pool needs more regular attention. Please just have the filters on at all times to purify the water... it looked too cloudy and had particles in it.. Makes one uncomfortable to spend time in that water. Overall, I think cleanliness can be improved.. table cloths, beach bed mattresses... it's the little things that take away from this lovely establishment in a big way.

    ✓Beautiful Ocean View ✓Delicious Breakfast ✓Nice Spacious Rooms with AC Met Beach has a beautiful view of the ocean.. something you enjoy each time you go to the restaurant to have a meal. We also enjoyed their Ala carte breakfast. Special thanks to Safari, our favourite among the staff, very kind and helpful.

    the pool is (yet) salt water; but according to the manager this should change soon.

    The swimming pool needs disinfecting as my partner complained of a yeast infection she got after using the Swimming pool. We need more fun activities like an active bar and some music. The place was a little dull.

    The breakfast was nice. We enjoyed it with my Partner served by a caring Gentleman. He serves you with a smile with a good attention to detail. The Baked beans were just something I craved for. That was nice.

    - location is a bit far from nicer parts of the beach, the center and other good restaurants - somehow the last resort on the long beach (but you can easily take a tuktuk to good places) - last part of the beach next to the Navy was not the nicest place, lot of seagrass, rocks in the water to walk over when you want to go for a swim (but this is kind of a problem on most parts at Malindi beach) - no sunbeds on the beach - no seaview from sunbeds in shadow at the pool - instead there was a stone wall to look at. - no save in the room, but having us to sign that the hotel is not reliable if anything valuable gets taken from our room - offer for transfer to airport was a bit expensive, we organised a cheaper transport on our own (25% cheaper) - all in all we felt comfortable and can recommend the hotel when you can live with above mentioned restrictions

    - very calm (at that time of year) - good pool restaurant - very nice terrace and relaxing areas inside the small hotel - small but nice pool - good breakfast with fresh prepared food and juices (omelettes and fruits were great as everywhere in Kenia - fresh toasted bread as well) - helping us with our baggage when we had to leave - helpful and friendly staff - especially Marta who helped us to find a good driver and shops and make our stay comfortable - very clean and well equiped spacious room with beautiful terrace with seaview - in general a nice ressort

    They clean the pool late they could clean it at 6am for guests who would like to swim early and they can improve on customer service

    The view of the beach from our room and watching of the sunrise and sunset. The place is child friendly. The place was quiet and relaxing😌

    No beach to take a walk, very heavy wind in the evening but an openable glass panel could solve the problem..

    Very private, easy to relax with a homely comfort, a place to revisit with the whole family.

    Many things need be improved, especially the cleanliness of the common areas (breakfast tables, tablecloths, chairs). The breakfast buffet needs proper refrigeration for fruits, and a better system needs to be found for ordering hot breakfast foods (we waited more than half an hour for an omelette, we had already eaten the rest of our breakfast). The staff were nice but they need more training on service. The hotel really needs to consider the ambience and the experience it provides for its customers: no music, no activities, no local recommendations. My room did not have a bathtub as stated on booking.com.

    The staff were nice, and the room was spacious and clean. A bit far compared to most hotels but easy to find a tuk tuk.

    Very kind staff, especially Alex who welcomed and helped us in all we needed. Beautiful and relaxing place not so far from the village, very cheap to get to the centre by taxi-bike. The room was so clean and nice. The bed very comfortable. Restaurant there has so delicious dishes at a reasonable price. All in all, ours staying was perfect.

    They are just finishing last parts of addition and remodel. Was perfect time to visit with new fresh feeling to the resort.

    Every morning I looked forward to the full selection of breakfast foods, starting with fresh fruit. The sea view room was great. Very clean and comfortable large suite connected to large veranda. Roberto was very helpful, from assisting in flight change, and arranging local activities. The location is great. Quiet and relaxing, yet close enough to activities when they are wanted.
