Our room had a stunning sea view. The beach is a dream and the pool/garden area amazing. Food delicious! Decoration in the restaurant stunning (art with watermelon)

All in all, we had a wonderful and relaxing stay. The rooms are spacious, sophisticated and very clean. Due to the excellent wifi connection, working remotely was possible without any problems. A big compliment to the kitchen team, who without exception manage to create a generous, incredibly varied and lovingly arranged buffet. We felt very comfortable and would love to come back.

This was my first solo trip and I chose Kenya because I have Kenyan colleagues who are delightful. For the portion of my trip in Diani Beach I chose Southern Palms. The name alone as well as the online reviews and photos were very convincing. I had an upper level room with a pool and partial ocean view that were both amazing. Like a postcard. The food is great, but the hostess and restaurant team are even better. First of all I'd like to thank Defense (yes that's her name) the restaurant supervisor. You were beyond attentive. So warm and welcoming from the moment we met and throughout my stay there. Thank you for sharing the "magic" of the "bird sanctuary." That memory and your kindness will stay with me always. Daisy, the GRO, what an absolute sweetheart you are. Meeting you was like meeting family. Mahamoud, the GM, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to accommodate me. You were prompt to assist and to ensure my stay was great. Some other mentions are Teresia -hostess, Joyce- server, and Sarah- receptionist, for commendable customer service. I hope to see you all again as I plan to return next year with my family. Until then, asante Sana.

The hotel was beautiful and staff incredible and couldn’t do enough for the you. The view towards the beach is also amazing. However the rooms are dated and very noisy as you could hear your neighbours all around you so we had trouble sleeping and were then woken up early to banging doors and people chatting. Overall we had an enjoyable stay and staff couldn’t have been more welcoming. Definitely give it a day or 2 and then head onto another venue as it is a very traditional hotel.

Very lovely staff cleaning our rooms . Very organised resort Wonderful food. Teresia was so kind and looked after all of us. The head of security was excellent as well! A lovely chap named Sunday cleaned our room for half of the week and he was lovely and taught us some Swahili words!
