Lovely place, ideal with family and kids. Rooms were cleaned, they always asked if we wanted our nets mosquito sprayed. Staff (especially Joffrey and Jeff) were especially very kind and helpful. Also we really appreciated that the owner, Stacey has managed to arrange a last minute transfers from Mombasa Airport and late dinner, when our pre-arranged transfer declined after a flight delay. We arrived super tired and hungry, so that dinner saved lives. :) The general breakfast was nice, portions were enough. The view and closeness of the beach and sea is amazing, we would return to this place at any give moment! High recommended! Thank you!

Staying at Babylon Gardens was exactly what I needed after four days of safari. Markus and all the staff are so kind, attentive, and lovely, making your stay at their accommodation a true oasis. The food is great, and the rooms are actually small apartments with a living area, an open kitchen, and a bedroom. The bedroom has air conditioning, and the bathroom is very spacious! You can swim in the pool whenever you need a refreshing break. Spacious apartments, AC, a swimming pool, great food, always cold beer, and the wonderful company of Markus and the staff, so what more could you ask for? Would I come back? If I travel to Diani again, absolutely! Vielen Dank, Markis! Bis nächstes Mal!

    Amazing place! We even got a room upgrade: we booked the cottage and we were offered to go to Hemingways suite which was absolutely fantastic, with a private pool on the rooftop. The pools, both the private and the shared ones, were clean and nice. The staff is very kind and always available: they can recommend good and convenient options for visiting the marine national park. The lodge is on a beach with mangroves: don't expect to chill on the white sand of Diani, it's completely a different environment, with mangrove ecosystems and lot of conservation efforts. The food was also good. We ate abundantly at dinner and breakfast, and the staff was available to satisfy our requests and exigencies. The restaurant on the terrace, with sofa, and lot of books, makes it a perfect place to chill and relax. You can reach the KWS office (to take the boat for the marine park with a 15-minutes walk through Shimoni Village, which is small but super characteristic. We highly suggest to visit it for a very local experience. The Shimoni Slaves Caves are less than 10 minutes walking. Strongly recommended and thanks a lot for such nice hospitality.

    This is a wonderful peaceful place. I am jealous for the staff, who is not only frindly, welcoming, always smiling and responsive, but theu relly know what they are doing and how to it. We loved the three bedr9oms we were using, the spacious living room, the pool, the view, ... actually we loved everything!

    Its a nice place with a beautiful beach with clear blue water. Water in the apartments are however salty, I assume its because of the beach surrounding the area. Food and activities are expensive around this area.

    Perfect.

    Perfect. I wrote a previous outstanding review but Booking.com only posted my two comments from “suggested improvements”, which were inconsequential but gave a negative impression. The property was lovely, steps from an amazing white sandy beach fringed with coconut palms. I loved lolling on the comfy cushions on the roof terrace in the evenings. Cecilia who looked after us was amazing and a great cook. Her fish curries were to die for. The bed was comfy and the mosquito nets a great asset. The community pool was well maintained with a fabulous on site masseuse, Habiba. Amazing relaxing vacation would highly recommend.

    The island was great. People very friendly. The only negative part was when I went for a walk on the island, one woman asked me what I was doing there. When I replied just looking, she told me to look cost money and I should come to the office to pay, which was total BS!

    Mostly private resorts however not far from Diani and accessible from Mombasa. The Likoni Ferry (which is the only way from Mombasa Island to the south) can take some time to cross- we took almost three hours when we first arrived.

    Ukunda itself is full of different kind of problems, but if we specifically talk about Diani, situation is different. Seaview access hotels are in general above average except, Flamboyant, Safari Beach and Seabreeze of which have many issues. Pricing 80$ to 500$ US. Then in Galu beach lies horrible trap places like this ghastly Coconut Village with incompetent teenagers left as managers. The second strip hotels are passable with pricing 35$ to 120$, but usually lack service ability and professional staff. The beach is very beautiful, but people around hotels hustling bring the experience down even bad.

    You will need a mosquito repellet especially in the evenings. Fortunately, there was one in the house we could use when we first got there before we could purchase one! Thanks to the host! You need to pre-arrage your movement from Tiwi to wherever you want to go as there is no public transport nearby. The host however had contacts for a reliable driver that was very helpful!
