Diani Sea Lodge - All Inclusive

We went thre for a 2 week vacation. In general, our experience was quite good with a few minor things that could be better. The rooms were quite spacious and cleaned daily, no complaints here. Our room lacked curtains, when we asked in the evening, it was solved the next day, but it is a little weird that such thing was unnoticed before. The air conditioning worked well. We had some problems with the safe deposit box due to faulty betteries. The other areas of the hotel were not airconditoned. The staff was friendly and helpful, some of them even learned a few words in Polish, congratulations! The hotel itself looked quite nice, all the rooms were in a garden away from the reception and restaurant area, it was in general very quiet. Sometimes there were monkey droppings on the pavement, so you has to be careful while walking. There were, of course, monkeys in the hotel, but the staff tried to limit their interactions with the guests and I believe, it worked out quite ok. The food was honestly better than expected. The choice was decent, always two or three meat dishes and a fish to choose from and some option for those who do not eat meat. ALso, there was always an opion to eat two kinds of homemade pasta and two sauces. The pasta was a little bit overcooked, but I guess, there is no way around it in a hotel. The breakfast was particularly good, you could get freshly prepared omelettes or fried eggs. The scrambled eggs didn't look very appetizing, though. The best part were the sweet things, especially waffles. They were always very tasty. The dining room was not airconditoned and some fod, especially the chheses, didn't look too nice as a result. There were two things that need improvement: dinners outside (it was quite dark and when you were sitting far from the food area, by the time you brought food to your table, it was lukewarm, because of strong breeze from the ocean). Another thing is the long wait for drinks when there were more people in the dining area. The water in the swimming pool was very warm and the pool itself was about 3 meters deep at one end as it was sometimed used to train divers. There was a diving school at the hotel and I would personally recommend diving there. There was wifi available, although it wasn't very fast, it was enough for basic internet browsing.

The staff is friendly but some need to be more respectful towards women and girls in general. The rooms are in need of renovation. There is a good variety of both veg and non veg options. The entertainment at night is not that great and the seating is minimal so that needs to be looked at.

For an average of $280 CAD a night this place is absolutely overrated and shouldn’t be posted at that price. The food variety is terrible and very poor. The towels (bathroom and beach) need an upgrade ASAP, after a shower the towels can really scratch you badly! The beach towels seems very overworn and even dirty as they are very old. The worst part is the minimum protection for the sun provided by this hotel to their guests who obviously come to the area to enjoy the beach. They have 16 or 17 beach umbrellas set in the front beach and, even if you get up extremely early (today I was out at 5:50am to get one), they were all “taken”. This really makes me think these German guests just pay for them and their spots (same every day). There are only towels at the chairs, you don’t see these senior guests until later on to come occupy their chairs under these limited umbrellas. My spouse and I travel a lot, and we have stayed at different all inclusives but definitely this one is not worth this price. If I pay an average of $280 CAD a night, I expect a certain standard and that’s not the case. Unfortunately due to another unexpected change in our trip we had to stay one more night here. Paid directly to the property via credit card and it is close to $300 CAD a night but we had to do it. The restaurant and bar staff are friendly, they are probably the best thing this hotel has. I hope ******* can do something about it and a realistic summary of the property is displayed.

This resort is tucked away in Diani and the perfect place for a peaceful vacation. It is clean and quiet and the staff was amazing. Enjoyed the nightly shows and how small it was making it a very intimate setting. Highly recommend if you are looking to get away from commotion and relax

Check in was Unnecessarily very slow. And when we had to call the front desk for some help, they said they would be there immediately and took over 45 minutes.

Service was great, location was divine. I will note that My wife, mother, and I all had GI issues after eating the food in the cafeteria. The food all tasted great and there were many options to eat things that didn’t bother our upset stomachs.

I had a great stay, thank you Diani Sea Lodge.

it was nice for the price
