Top Shimba Hills National Reserve Hotel Reviews

Jacaranda Indian Ocean Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is amazing. The staff were the best,made us feel like we were at home and always went above and beyond with our requests.The food was delicious, specially on Wednesdays and Saturdays which was Swahili Night.Just would like to see more fruit variety at breakfast because you have delicious fruit in Diani. Only thing to point is the room attendant, which by the way was good but just needs to pay more attention to details when cleaning the bathroom…Overall we had an amazing experience and if back to Diani will definitely book again for the best room in the hotel(435)… 🖤❤️💚"

Sentrim Castle Royal Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It was so nice to have a clean, cool and comfortable room after a day out in the heat! The restaurant is not air conditioned, but has ceiling fans. The food is exceptional! The breakfast is a buffet with an omelette station. I will stay here if I ever need to be in the area again!"

Premium Inn

"Good overall"

CityBlue Creekside Hotel & Suites, Mombasa

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were clean and the staff were really nice and helpful"

Mzima Beach

8/10 Good

"The hotel market itself as a 5 stars resort, at least that's what it shows on Google map. I wouldn't say it's a 5 star hotel, more like a 4 star that maybe years ago was better maintained. The staff are incredibly friendly and willing to help. Facilities and amenities are not superb, I'd say good enough. We've had only one breakfast and two dinners. They don't have (yet?) a communal area where they serve dinner, so they tend to cater guests in their rooms. We used the swimming pool a couple of times, it was clean enough. We even used outdoor gym once and that was okay. We did not use the spa. We used the airport transfer service for about 50 usd each way, which is a reasonable price. Wyclef the chef was very nice the evening we had our first dinner: basically no one had informed us about the fact that they expect guests to let reception know by a certain time (around 6pm) what they want for dinner. We didn't know that. So we waited until 8pm and we showed up at reception, nobody was there and apparently most of the staff had already gone home. So the chef himself took the order, cooked for us and attended our table. It was very nice of him, but it honestly felt a little weird for us, as we felt like we were doing something not right. So I'd say that reception and staff in general should communicate better both to the guests and among themselves. Location is good, close to the beach but expect 5 minutes walk to reach it if you're in one of the suites on top of the resorts."

"Staff was the highlight of the stay - super friendly and helpful. Room is dated already, not much amenity (had to ask for hair dryer every time needed to use). Same chain as Boxo so sometimes Boxo guests sneaked in and used the pool which was not very nice. An ok stay, bit less quality than the price paid"
