"Do this was a solo trip I enjoyed the offer pay for two nights and get one night for free ! I was attended to so well since it was inclusive with a lot of entertainment options that made sure I wasn’t bored at all . So one staff stood out for me Pauline from entertainment she made sure I wasn’t bored at engaged and included in all the games and was very accommodating and supportive . I loved my entire trip and hope to come back soon ! Generally I’d rate it a 10 from the food to the service to the interactions with staff ."

Exploreans Beach Club & Villas Watamu

📍 Mayungu Road, Malindi
★★★ 9.5 (1 reviews)

"The hotel is fantastic!!! We absolutely loved it! We initially booked for one day, but then decided to extend it for another day. It's best to buy an all-inclusive package, as the hotel is located far from amenities. But if you're traveling with a group or on your honeymoon, this is perfect. The staff is polite and friendly, the food is delicious, the amenities are excellent, and of course, the price is great. The only thing I might not like is the hot water. It's warm, perfect for showering during the day, but cool in the evening."

"The rooms were wonderful in that they were quite spacious, the bathrooms were quite updated and the meeting rooms were adequate. There’s easy access to the beach which is always a great add. However, the food here was a let down, in terms of quality, taste and variety."

★★★★★ 9.2 (44 reviews)

"The hotel is very beautiful, we stayed in a three bedroom apartment which was huge with a big patio and lounge area. The meals were 10/10 and the staff were very polite and helpful, special mention Peninah and Luca the (GM). We'll definitely be back."

Kilili Baharini Resort & Spa

Kilili Baharini Resort & Spa

📍 Watamu, Casuarina Rd, Malindi
★★★★ 8.2 (18 reviews)

"Be cautious when visiting Kilili Baharini Hotel. During my recent visit, the owner behaved in an inappropriate and disrespectful manner toward my Black girlfriend, repeatedly asking staff to get her phone number. His actions were intrusive and offensive. It was disappointing to witness such behavior, which came across as discriminatory and unprofessional. I share this to caution others and encourage the management to uphold higher standards of respect and integrity."

"If you want somewhere less crowded, private, luxurious & screams opulence it's definitely Billionaire Resort. Loved every bit of my stay, One of their staff, Sheila took care of us very well. Definitely recommend you staying there whenever you are in Malindi, bit pricey but worth it"

Kilili Baharini Resort & Spa ★★★★
"Overall, the hotel is good seeing that not many options in Malindi don’t have beachfronts. But maybe rates should be half the current one. We paid 200 USD per night per standard room for bed and breakfast, and we thought for what it is, it’s not worth it. We didn’t see the kind of services and amenities you’d expect from this price in Malindi. Also, breakfast was subpar for this kind of hotel and price. The breakfast wasn’t great and didn’t have many options. On my first breakfast I asked for Americano and they gave me cheap instant coffee. They replaced it with actual coffee when I told them this is bad instant coffee, but not sure why offer it in the first place. We had lunch there once and was good though. Also, for some reason they didn’t explain, we were not allowed to eat anything, even snacks, while sitting on the sun beds, only drinks allowed and if you want to eat you have to go to the restaurant or the beach bar. We thought that was unreasonably and unnecessarily restrictive. Like I wanted to chill on the sun beds while eating the desert I ordered from there, but they didn’t allow and were very insisting. They didn’t offer any explanation but “sorry, it’s not allowed.” Other beach bars and restaurants on the beach where we went to hang out allowed food while sitting on table/sun beds by the beach. Also, most hotels offer complimentary shuttle pick up from the airport (which is 12 minutes only away from the hotel). They don’t offer it for free and actually offer it at 6+ times more the market price (Uber and taxis charge 350 KES and, the hotel charges 2,000 KES.) On our first day, we seemed to be the only people at the hotel that are not there for the conference, upon arrival we went to the pool by the beach bar. We found it dirty, and full of dead flies and leaves. The staff were nice and responsive and cleaned it immediately, but why have this the pool like this until someone asks to clean it? They also say they have 5 pools (because there are pools in front of every set of four rooms) but the one in front of us was actually filthy. The water was dark and looked visibly not clean. If we asked, they would have probably cleaned it, but I’m not there to supervise and give instructions. I would’ve liked to just find things the way they’re supposed to be. These small things can be annoying though I wouldn’t say it ruined the experience, just made it a bit annoying. Like I’m coming to chill and relax without harming people, there’s no reason to “prevent” me from enjoying an ice cream while sitting watching the beach, have dirty pools, offer bad coffee…etc. we had a good experience overall and I still enjoyed my time, but I might consider other options for my next trip to Malindi seeing that it didn’t provide value for money, especially that most hotels’ rates were around one third of this one (but didn’t have beach fronts, which is probably the reason why)."

"I took my cousin's here for a family getaway and we had a beautiful family room overlooking the beach, large accomodating everyone's needs. A shout out to manager James for looking after us through the whole experience, and King George who managed a full day boat trip with lunch included."

"The hotel offered no food or drinks, the air conditioning was incredibly noisy (like a tractor), and it was a ten-minute walk to buy a bottle of water in a very remote location. Plus, it didn't support Glovo."
