Diani Reef Beach Resort & Spa enjoys a great location right on Diani's beautiful white sand beach, with spacious, well-furnished rooms offering pleasant terraces. The breakfast receives high praise, thanks to its excellent selection of both local and Western cuisine. The large swimming pool is appreciated by guests, as are the many relaxing areas and the clean beach, although some guests have observed signs of wear and tear in some areas of this vast resort with beautiful gardens and palm trees by the sea.

Balanced Experience at the Beachfront

great swimming pool clean beach ample lounge rough room condition overpriced food faulty showerhead
The breakfast offered many varieties suitable for vegetarians. The large swimming pool was great for swimming during low tides. The beach was very clean, and there were plenty of lounges available.
The shower head flew off while I was taking a shower. The beds were comfortable. Though the rooms were in rough condition. I felt that the food was okay but overpriced for the area.

The architecture throughout the resort was beautiful.
My room had a very strong egg smell coming from the shower , along with poor water pressure. I informed reception about this issue , but a room change did not resolve the problem , indicating a problem throughout the system.

nice family stay

hotel security beach restaurant room service
i loved that the hotel security, dressed as 'maasais', patrolled the beach, which prevented vendors from bothering us! they even chased away monkeys trying to snatch our snacks? my kids really enjoyed the pools and the playground. i found the daily 11:00 am activities organized by dan and his team quite entertaining. playing water polo reminded me of my childhood. the food was delicious, even the kids thought so! we especially enjoyed ordering from the beach restaurant, with grilled prawns and coconut rice becoming a favorite. the room service staff was very polite. the gentleman who cleaned our rooms (3032 and 3033) did an amazing job.
I did notice a slight issue with the lifts. It could cause some inconvenience when trying to reach certain parts of the hotel.
