    Friendly and super helpful staff, beautiful and well equipped villa and the pool is amazing! It was very quiet and tranquil.

    They were a bit inflexible with late checkout, wanted to charge for a full extra night when we only wanted an extra couple hours. We'd have been happy vacating the villa and sitting by the pool so this felt a little unreasonable.

    I loved the view, the pools the fresh air from the nice trees and yellow flowers. Fresh and nice breakfast at any time with nice and accomodative staff with Gloria in mind. A secured place with guards and property been well secured.

    I can’t think of anything I didn’t like about the villa.

    Everything was just great: the place, the staff, the room

    The only thing is it’s a bit far from the beach, but not a problem at all.

    Very spacious and clean. Value for money. Lots of private areas to sit around. AC was good and the hot water. Only down side was we had to go one a dusty gravel road (10minute walk ) to reach the property. You always need a tuk tuk for this. Profit who was looking after our flat and cooking our breakfast was very helpful.

    love this place so much we are going to return. Great staff. Lovely villas - a little further to walk than expected though. But overall a great little find - thank you.

    distance from the main road and access to the beach meant we have to get a motorbike each time we left the village.

    The breakfast was good. I liked that staff came to your apartment and cooked it

    No bar or restaurant. Even if you were able to get drinks I think it would help.

    We really enjoyed our stay, tha staff was very kind, welcoming and friendly. Everything was clean and tidy and the pool was great. There was no problem with checking-in early as we had to arrive sooner than planned because of bad weather. Breakfast prepared fresh at the time of your request were a nice touch. As our plane was leaving mid afternoon the staff was kind enough to let as stay at the area, even after the check in, until we had to leave for the plane. 5/5 would recommend.

    The accommodation is very spacious and comfortable. You can ask the staff to prepare dinner for you in your own accommodation, which is amazing after a long day out.

    The accommodation is really nice, but small things like handsoap and cooking oil were missing. Some clothing hooks broke off and that made it difficult to put our towels somewhere to dry.

    The design, the nature, the beautiful pool and surroundings. The terrace was lovely. We loved it.

    Everything was positive apart from 1 thing: it would be just perfect if upon our arrival we could receive a bottle of water each. There was no refreshments and considering the location of the hotel, for newcomers it may be slightly challenging to get their heads around.

    The property is approximately 40 minutes’ drive from Malindi International Airport. Google maps will mislead you so get a driver who is familiar with the area. It is close to a mall. Property is very clean and well maintained and the rooms are beautifully designed with great attention to detail. Well equipped kitchen should you wish to make your own meals. Good swimming pool. Apartments are cleaned daily. Lovely and pleasant staff. Special thanks to Mr. Profit who was kind enough to take me to the beach (5 minutes drive), nearby restaurants, malls and do airport transfers. Such good value for money. I’ll definitely be back!

    The place is spacious and accommodative. Loved the veranda.

    The place is a little bit off road which makes it not so ideal to walk at night.
