The location of the hotel is very good, just in front of the beach, but it needs an urgent renovation, the room was big and had sea views, but the bathroom smelled very bad, they must have issues with the plumbing system. The comon areas of the hotel, swming pool, sunbeds, etc looked old and poorly mantained. Only the lobby area seemed ti have been recently renovated as well as the restaurant, the only thing among the waiters, that was really worth it. The food was espectacular and the personnel really nice and welcoming. If the owners of the hotel would invest in a real renovation of the place it could be a really amazing hotel to stay.

Nice place to stay and good value. Some notes that may be helpful: - tuktuk 200+100 ksh tip to Ali Babour’s Cave Restaurant for 3 people (max capacity of a tuktuk). Just go out to road and flag one down. About the same cost to get to a Carrefour supermarket. - Free bottled water in rooms (room temp). They provide more when you run out - Breakfast (bnb option) was amazing. Fruit, yoghurt, eggs, sausage, waffles, coffee, juice - Very entertaining watching the kite surfers in front of the resort - Air conditioning works well - No pressure for purchasing food, drinks or trinkets when lounging on their nice beach chairs all afternoon. - If driving from the Momasa train station or airport it may be a many hour wait for the ferry going south out of Mombasa. A bypass bridge is possibly opening up later in 2024 which will be much faster. Flying in/out of the diani airport (Ukunda) is a 15 min drive to the Blue Marlin.

We have been residents of Diani for six years and have eaten at Blue Marlin on many occasions. We returned today with friends after a two year absence due to an atrocious meal last time. After today, we will return again soon. It was Fabulous! JoJo our waitress was attentive and efficient. Fish and chips was fantastic and great value. Thoroughly recommend.

We had not visited for two years, following a very poor experience. Our meal was excellent. Fish and chips, (which caused our two year absence), and Thai Prawn Curry. Both were good sized portions, presented very well and tasted lovely. Robert our waiter was attentive, always ensuring our drinks were full. Well done Blue Marlin - You are back and we will see you again soon.

My wife and I stayed for three nights at the Blue Marlin Beach Hotel and we had an amazing time. We had done a safari right before our trip and my wife had injured her back. Caro and the other staff members were so nice and supportive helping my wife with her bags, getting her extra blankets and pillows and even checking on her after our trip. It really meant a lot to us. The hotel itself is beautiful and right on the beach. The restaurant was really good and the waiters were very friendly. We mostly stayed at the hotel and took turns at the pool and the beach but they will help you book excursions if you're interested. Our room had a balcony where we could see stars at night and monkeys during the day. You're also pretty close to the "town" if you want to go in to a restaurant or the grocery store.
