What guests think
Across recent reviews, Diani Sea Resort - All Inclusive is praised for friendly staff, a beachfront setting, and well kept gardens, with many guests enjoying comfortable air conditioned rooms, family activities, and generally good food with plenty of choice.
Others, however, found the buffet repetitive or limited at times, with slow service and queues at stations. Cleanliness is often rated highly, though a few reported musty smelling rooms, smelly towels, or pool cleanliness issues. Rooms can feel basic or dated in places, and beach sunbeds or shade are sometimes scarce while vendors can be persistent just outside. Overall, expect a relaxed beachside stay with family friendly amenities and occasional service or maintenance hiccups.

The resort was very nice, the pool was big but the waterslide was not great, though my kids still had fun playing on it and the organized activities provided by staff. The only issue we had was being able to walk on the beach because of how many "beach boys" were hanging out right at the stairs of the resort.

Great, budget-friendly, and beautiful resort with direct beach access and security guards. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe there. The meat choices at the buffet were limited, but I noticed this everywhere in Kenya. Overall, my stay was very pleasant and amazing! The resort has stunning landscaping and unbeatable prices, and I would definitely stay there again.

Bedding and pillow were very smelly. Air-con unit was leaking on to balcony. Hotel is very dated and needs a refurb. Caters for mass European tour clients. Sunbeds always seem to be taken starting from 7 am. Mainly European clients, hotel doesn’t feel like being in Africa, lacks diversity. Stayed in other hotels at Diani at similar price/rating, but better quality.

This all inclusive resort provided all the amenities to relax after our safari and more! Highly rated cleanliness, beautifully decorated, offering multiple activities for adults & children it also maintained our safety within its gated walls. Though we walked few streets during the day without any incident. Street vendors promote their businesses but no issues.

Lovely stay. Excellent food. Nice rooms and comfortable bed. Pool could do with a clean as it turned any white swimwear green. However pool was great and a lovely kids splash pool and slide. Wonderful staff. Excellent location on the beach. Slightly tiresome attitude of other guests out at dawn with towels to reserve sunloungers however loungers are plentiful and staff can assist. We travelled with two small children so would have benefitted from more sun umbrellas for shade. Bring a sun tent if you are travelling with children. Overall very nice and would stay again.

Unser Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel war wirklich wunderbar. Das Zimmer war immer sehr sauber und gepflegt und man hat gemerkt, dass hier viel Wert auf Ordnung gelegt wird. Das Essen war sehr lecker und abwechslungsreich, wir haben jedes Mal gerne im Restaurant gegessen. Das Personal war außergewöhnlich freundlich und aufmerksam. Ein besonderes Dankeschön an die Frau, die uns geholfen hat, ein Taxi zum Flughafen zu organisieren, als die Straßen gesperrt waren. Ohne ihre Hilfe hätten wir es kaum rechtzeitig geschafft.

L’eau pour se laver est salée et l’eau à boire n’est pas de source, ils remplissent 2 gourdes par chambre par jour. A l’arrivée on étaient les premiers mais on a été servis les derniers après 3 heures d’attente à la réception. Les chambres sentent la moisissure et la nourriture n’est ni bonne ni variée et il n’ya jamais assez pour tout le monde. Le prix payé dépasse de loin la qualité du séjour je suis très déçue et je ne reviendrai jamais à cet hôtel.

I stayed here for two nights as part of a tour through Kenya. I was welcomed at the reception with a lovely welcome drink on check-in. All the staff were incredibly welcoming, helpful and attentive. As a solo black female traveller, I wasn't sure what to expect but I was treated very well by all! The resort itself is stunning with lovely grounds. The gardens are well kept and you may see the odd monkey lurking about. I had half board for my stay. There was an incredible food selection for both breakfast and dinner. The chef made special gluten free food for both as well. I had a sea facing room. The room was beautiful but the decor is a little dated / tired. There is a kettle in the room with free tea bags and coffee.

Good property, good service, slow at times though. Lots of walking and stairs depending on the room. Rooms are extremely basic. Bathroom amenities are sparse...no idea what the hair conditioner is, shampoo or body wash is. Food can be a hit and miss with long line ups at the buffet as the staff is very slow in preparing the meals at the cooking stations. To be honest was over priced for what we got but maybe it was the season. I would rate it as a 3 star property.

Lovely stay made better by the warm welcome from the reception staff and stunning room with a view of the sea. I was a little apprehensive about my stay from some other reviews from black travellers. I was treated very well by all staff including those in the dining areas. I never once felt as if I was ignored or served slower than guests from Europe. Everyone was very professional and friendly. The food was great with a good gluten free selection at the buffet including baked gluten free goods (made from maize) for breakfast. The chefs were great at preparing separate food as well if asked for that was gluten-free. My room was beautiful although a little worn. The ambience and cleanliness of the property was otherwise stunning. Location also good not far from Ukunda airport. I was also very pleased to find out that Uber also works in Diani so it was easy to transfer to the airport.

Hotel managed to re arrange our airport pickup when we got an earlier flight with no hassle. Alan the taxi guy was lovely. Reception and room porter were very friendly. Lovely room and thanks to John our room cleaner. Good choice of food. Cocktails were way too strong. Service at bars and restaurants was a bit slow. Gardeners and security staff were great. Need more waiters serving drinks round the pool. Rooms need a pull out clothes dryer on the balconies and milk sachets for the coffee. We loved our stay here

Location
Right on Diani Beach with scenic views; shops and Ukunda airport are within easy reach, and many felt safe on site. Beach vendors can be persistent, and travel via the Mombasa ferry can take far longer than expected.

The resort was very nice, the pool was big but the waterslide was not great, though my kids still had fun playing on it and the organized activities provided by staff. The only issue we had was being able to walk on the beach because of how many "beach boys" were hanging out right at the stairs of the resort.

Great, budget-friendly, and beautiful resort with direct beach access and security guards. As a solo female traveler, I felt very safe there. The meat choices at the buffet were limited, but I noticed this everywhere in Kenya. Overall, my stay was very pleasant and amazing! The resort has stunning landscaping and unbeatable prices, and I would definitely stay there again.

Hello, the hotel staff was very nice, so one looks away from small mistakes in the room (I was bothered by the touch of mold from the sink, my husband's lack of air conditioning). What was a big problem, however, was the availability of the hotel from the airport in Mombasa:( Hotels.com states 45 minutes, but in fact at night after arrival the taxi took 2 hours !! The hotel goes across the river and you have to use a ferry. The journey back to Mombasa took 4.5 hours !! it was monday morning, crazy traffic and we only waited for the ferry for 3 hours :( that day only two ferries operated. Fortunately we didn't go to the airport, but we continued elsewhere in Kenya. So watch out, the only way is through the ferry. This may have been an exception, but both night (after midnight) and morning trips took significantly longer than the hotel reports. The hotel had a great pool with a very pleasant water temperature, I emphasize that. And the beach right next to the hotel very nice :)

Lovely stay made better by the warm welcome from the reception staff and stunning room with a view of the sea. I was a little apprehensive about my stay from some other reviews from black travellers. I was treated very well by all staff including those in the dining areas. I never once felt as if I was ignored or served slower than guests from Europe. Everyone was very professional and friendly. The food was great with a good gluten free selection at the buffet including baked gluten free goods (made from maize) for breakfast. The chefs were great at preparing separate food as well if asked for that was gluten-free. My room was beautiful although a little worn. The ambience and cleanliness of the property was otherwise stunning. Location also good not far from Ukunda airport. I was also very pleased to find out that Uber also works in Diani so it was easy to transfer to the airport.

This all inclusive resort provided all the amenities to relax after our safari and more! Highly rated cleanliness, beautifully decorated, offering multiple activities for adults & children it also maintained our safety within its gated walls. Though we walked few streets during the day without any incident. Street vendors promote their businesses but no issues.

Unser Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel war wirklich wunderbar. Das Zimmer war immer sehr sauber und gepflegt und man hat gemerkt, dass hier viel Wert auf Ordnung gelegt wird. Das Essen war sehr lecker und abwechslungsreich, wir haben jedes Mal gerne im Restaurant gegessen. Das Personal war außergewöhnlich freundlich und aufmerksam. Ein besonderes Dankeschön an die Frau, die uns geholfen hat, ein Taxi zum Flughafen zu organisieren, als die Straßen gesperrt waren. Ohne ihre Hilfe hätten wir es kaum rechtzeitig geschafft.

L’eau pour se laver est salée et l’eau à boire n’est pas de source, ils remplissent 2 gourdes par chambre par jour. A l’arrivée on étaient les premiers mais on a été servis les derniers après 3 heures d’attente à la réception. Les chambres sentent la moisissure et la nourriture n’est ni bonne ni variée et il n’ya jamais assez pour tout le monde. Le prix payé dépasse de loin la qualité du séjour je suis très déçue et je ne reviendrai jamais à cet hôtel.

I stayed here for two nights as part of a tour through Kenya. I was welcomed at the reception with a lovely welcome drink on check-in. All the staff were incredibly welcoming, helpful and attentive. As a solo black female traveller, I wasn't sure what to expect but I was treated very well by all! The resort itself is stunning with lovely grounds. The gardens are well kept and you may see the odd monkey lurking about. I had half board for my stay. There was an incredible food selection for both breakfast and dinner. The chef made special gluten free food for both as well. I had a sea facing room. The room was beautiful but the decor is a little dated / tired. There is a kettle in the room with free tea bags and coffee.

L’eau pour se laver est salée et l’eau à boire n’est pas de source. Nourriture terrible et pas suffisante pour tout le monde. Chambres sentent moisissure . Le prix qu’on a payé pour 3 chambres est trop élevé pour la qualité de l’hôtel et du service . Je suis très déçue de notre séjour et je ne reviendrai jamais à cet hôtel et je ne le recommande pas.
