Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at Diamonds Malindi, Kenya, and I would like to share our wonderful experience to help other travelers looking for the right accommodation. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and appreciated. The hospitality and friendliness of the staff made our stay truly special. Their professionalism, kindness, and willingness to assist guests deserve special recognition. What impressed us most was the excellent customer service. The staff went out of their way to make us feel comfortable, creating a warm and relaxing atmosphere throughout our holiday. It is always a pleasure to stay somewhere that makes you feel valued, not just as a guest but as part of a family.I would particularly like to thank the entire hotel team, from the reception staff to the restaurant, housekeeping, and everyone working behind the scenes. Your dedication and hard work did not go unnoticed.To the management and entire team at Diamonds Malindi, thank you for your wonderful hospitality and excellent service. Special thanks to "Jimmy" You helped create beautiful memories for our family, and we truly appreciate your efforts.We would be happy to return in the future!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Diamond Resort in Malindi, and I can confidently say it was one of the best all-inclusive experiences I’ve ever had! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and pampered. The resort itself is stunning, with beautifully maintained grounds, spacious and comfortable rooms, and breathtaking views of the ocean. The all-inclusive package truly exceeded my expectations. The variety and quality of food were outstanding — from fresh seafood to international cuisines, every meal was a delight. The bars offered a fantastic selection of drinks, and the attentive bartenders always made sure our glasses were never empty. Would stay there again! Highly recommended.

The private pool is not something I have come across before and it turned out to be a pretty special feature. The only minor letdown was the room itself. It was very dark almost dungeon like and why they put a bed that you need a ladder to get into is just beyond me. I even feel its unsafe especially for older patrons and children. Overall I would rate it at 7.5 out of 10.

It's a beautiful place but the entrance to our room smelled terribly and never improved. Nearly every restaurant checkout encounter is extremely prolonged. And although the pools are gorgeous, you are not allowed in them past 6 pm, which just feels wrong on vacation.

The meals are quite expensive, they should consider reviewing downwards. It’s not sustainable.

My stay at Diamonds Dream of Africa was unfortunately a very mixed experience. We arrived late and, despite it being my birthday, our room was not ready upon arrival. The reception staff was not particularly welcoming, and the reception area itself appeared quite dirty, which immediately affected the first impression. There also seemed to be very few staff available during our stay, possibly because there was a team-building event ongoing at the hotel. The food experience was also disappointing. The menu choices were limited, and overall the food felt very basic for a resort of this standard. There is definitely room for improvement in both quality and variety. Housekeeping and guest support were quite poor. On our second day, our room was cleaned very late, and despite calling reception several times requesting basic items like soap and slippers, no one came to assist us. We eventually had to physically go to reception ourselves. At one point, we also had no water in the room. We informed reception, but there was little urgency or follow-up to check whether we were okay. The birthday experience was also mishandled. My friend had organized a surprise cake and birthday song for me, but the staff unfortunately ruined the surprise by repeatedly coming to our table, twice, asking who the birthday girl was. They then brought the cake and singing while I was still eating and seemed unable to wait until we had finished dinner. To make matters worse, they came while my friend was

I would say this is a really nice place if you want to have a really good holiday as a family coming from Europe or another foreign country however it is less suitable for solo travellers. as some other reviews have pointed out the service is below standards and even though it is not really bad either they have been a number of occasions where for example a female waiter has aggressively removed dishes from my table along with weird looks and we had reactions when I wanted to have a specific table as opposed to the table they had a mind. now these are minor things if you want to have a good holiday but since you are paying for that I unfortunately have to say the service isn't actually good. then also the front desk is unprofessional and has a lot of stereotypes I wanted to invite my girlfriend for one day to visit me since I wanted to share the experience with her and the front desk person made a really strange remark about how this girl would also have to eat when I wanted to negotiate the rates. I understand that there's a lot of sex tourism in the coast area but you cannot assume that every white and black mixture is somehow connected to financial gain. an additional problem I had was the jacuzzi wasn't working and it took them multiple days and multiple complaints to do something about it however after having politely told someone who apparently was now the right person they actually upgraded me to a room with a private pool which was actually a nice gesture

Die Anlage ist wunderschön, der Garten ist sehr gepflegt, die Gebäude/Restaurants, Zimmer und Pools sind toll und in gutem Zustand. Das Essen war lecker, auch relativ abwechslungsreich. Das Einzige was gefehlt hat, war frischer Fisch am Buffet. Es gab immer nur Fleisch und/oder Gemüse. Zur Abwechslung kann man in die beiden a la carte Restaurants, das Essen hier war ok, bzw. lecker im „Fine dining restaurant“ Was jedoch total enttäuschend war, ist der nicht vorhandene Strand bei Flut. Es gibt zwar erhöht einen künstlichen Strand aber das Meer ist arg verdreckt und durch einen hinzulaufenden nahegelegenen Fluss ist das Wasser sehr verschmutzt und schaumig, sodass man leider kein einziges Mal ins Meer zum schwimmen gehen konnte. Bei Ebbe ist das Wasser so weit draußen und noch schmutziger und lädt auch nicht zum Baden ein. Trotzdem hatten wir 5 sehr schöne und entspannte Tage.
