10/10 Exceptional

I had a fantastic stay at Baobab Beach Resort & Spa. The location on Diani Beach is stunning, with white sand and clear water. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the all-inclusive food and drinks were excellent. The pools were clean, the rooms comfortable, and the whole atmosphere was relaxing. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a great beach holiday in Kenya.

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed our stay. The food was good but a bit repetitive. Most of the staff was very kind. The property was beautifully maintained and the same goes with the pools. The evening entertainment was fantastic 👌! The monkeys will steal everything that they want though if you aren't very careful.
Jeffrey E Edward, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was our third visit to The Baobab, and we thoroughly enjoyed our week there. The only drawback for us is that the dining choices were very heavy on Indian and local cuisine with not many other options. Still, we were always able to find something we liked and would definitely plan to visit again.

Nice resort in a beauty location

The resort is beautiful and the setting is fantastic. The beach is beautiful as are the various pool areas. The room was good, clean and comfortable. The food was just ok, what you would expect at a buffet. The service was ok overall. Great in the restaurants and other staff but the front desk service was lacking, they weren’t very friendly or helpful, giving out some conflicting information. Overall though I recommend the resort, it was a very nice relaxing stay.

It wasn’t all inclusive as the post when I checked out the wanted me to pay to keep using the facilities which never happened to me before on a all inclusive hotel before
Jose ignacio vega, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

They have a silly policy about pool towels and a token they provide without briefing you about it. Then try and bill you extra upon check-out. This ruined my otherwise okay experience. Would not recommend as there are better options along the same road.

I loved the space around the property and the fact that you could find peace and quiet in any number of locations whether that was lounging by a pool, close to the beach or sitting in the shade sipping a lovely local cocktail

This was our third stay at Boabab and it won’t be our last. It’s at the far end of Diani but still accessible to the local shops with a tuk tuk. Staff are excellent, the food good and overall a beautiful place to be.
roop, 9-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Beautiful all inclusive resort on Diani Beach, about an hour drive from Mombasa International Airport. I had the sea facing Deluxe Room which was absolutely beautiful and spacious. A shuttle is available for a fee to pick you up or drop off at airport. Days have low tide so you can walk on the beach. Resort has Pullman Tours office that can book off base excursions as well as book a snorkeling trip to the sand bar during low tide. I recommend the Mombasa city tour as they take you to the Akamba Market that has 2500 wood carving artists that sell their crafts at excellent prices and most of the money goes directly to the artist. Meals include buffets with food and desserts from around the world. Egg stations available in the morning for scrambles/omelettes and pasta stations at lunch/dinner as well as many other foods. Gym available for a daily fee. Recommend getting a massage at the Spa! Rooms are seaside so you hear ocean roar while receiving an amazing massage. Resort offers several pools- one of which is an adults only. Overall amazing stay. Would stay again- highly recommend!

Excellent overall. Had to call staff more than once to get their attention at times but staff were mostly really nice. Facilities are excellent and food quality is the best. Room was listed as having one double bed and one single on hotels.com but actually had two singles

Nice hotel but pricy

Overall good hotel, but the all-inclusive package is not full. You can not choose some drinks as they are only provided as "premium drinks". Ice-cream is not included and cost extra. Staff is very eager to promote the á-la carte restaurants where you need to pay extra. One very bad thing is that the hotel allows beachboys to sell stuff and tours at the hotel premises, so you are not left alone. That really lowers the review. The price is high in the area and therefore I would expect a higher standard.
Joakim, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent hotel and the staff have top quality customer service . Lovely pools, amazing beach views, unlimited drinks and wildlife ! This is literally a place you would see on the TV and say I would love to go there. There are some huge renovations going on at the hotel and it did not mention this on the booking which normally I would leave a negative feedback for but due to the vast size of the place it will not affect your stay in anyway apart from the late night restaurant which is usuallly opened till 12 being closed. Also check out the watersports at baobao at the Freetyme water-sports counter, those guys were fantastic and I highly recommend this resort to anyone.
