La mia compagna ed io abbiamo soggiornato in questo resort a 5 stelle: cucina ottima, personale molto gentile, frutta e cocktail dal sapore unico. Unica pecca: un giorno l'acqua della doccia non andava da nessuna parte del resort e nessuno si è mosso. Abbiamo dovuto chiamare noi l'assistenza alle 22 (era dalle 17 che l'acqua non andava)... ma d'altronde, la vita in Kenya è molto "rilassata". Forse siamo noi che dovremmo abituarci. Abbiamo poi fatto escursione con Fragola Discovery Kenya". Rama (guida) e Mwamba (autista della Jeep) sono stati incredibili. Abbiamo visto tutti gli animali possibili e immaginabili a Tsavo East! Da consigliare assolutamente! È un'emozione che non si può racchiudere in una recensione.

Ho soggiornato in questo resort dal 20 al 28 febbraio. Abbiamo organizzato il safari di due giorni e una notte con fragola!!! Il servizio è stato eccellente e la nostra guida Rama in soli due giorni è riuscito a farci vedere tutti gli animali delle savana molto molto da vicino. Merito anche del super autista Mwamba che ha guidato in modo eccellente e non appena sentiva alla radio che un animale era in un posto con una velocità incredibile lui raggiungeva quel posto! Tutto molto incredibile e divertente quasi da sembrare finto. Se avessi a disposizione più giorni avrei fatto sicuramente altri giorni di Safari con Fragola! Jambo!

Natale 2024.....perfetto!!!!! Il resort è un piccolo condominio di villette con camere (anzi, mini appartamenti) ben curati e confortevoli. La struttura è piccola e, per il mio modo di vedere e trascorrere le vacanze, è il suo punto forte. Poca confusione, clima familiare, cura nei dettagli e il personale accogliente e gentile. Si mangia bene a buffet con gusto italianizzato. Il TOP è la posizione: spiaggia STUPENDA PARADISIACA. Unico neo: la strada....un pò dissestata, ma ciò rende esclusiva la struttura perchè non di facile viabilità. Al st Thomas finisce la strada.....quindi poca confusione. In 10 minuti sei a Watamu in mezz'ora a Malindi. Non manca nulla. E non manca neppure la voglia di tornare.

Recensione incompleta
Da premettere che è stata scelta da ********* visto che la precedente era stata cancellata dalla struttura. Dopo un pernottamento sono stata cambiata di struttura perché già piena quest' ultima. Per cui non so dare un giudizio esaustivo.

St Thomas December visit
The general conditions are good, rooms are nice and clean and airconditioners works well. Pool is Nice and clean. Food was good although no meat ( bacon and sausages) for breakfast in last 3 days of visit. Management does not adjust to needs - we were keen on Tusker Lite and although the resort is between Malindi and Watamu, they could never procure this. Chef’s cooking is good. We booked a family unit and it was only revealed to me that these units are under renovation in two days before we visited, when I called to confirm details. Smaller rooms were offered in stead.
Overall good experiences, the resort has a nice look, but the maintenance needs to pick up. It was a very relaxing visit.
