Review by elabushtns Nairobi, Kenya
Great resort
I stayed in this resort from 6-17 july (-2 nights safari) with my parents and brother. It was a pleasant vacation from start to end. When we arrived after our long flight we were greeted with big smiles, a hot towel and a beverage. Instead of the usual experience where u have to check-in at the reception they tell you, you can sit down and relax in the lounge where they come to and do the checking-in with you. The rooms were just new after the recent renovation, they perfectly met our expectations. Other parts of the resort were still under renovation which was clearly told to us before hand. Those renovations didn't brother me at all. There was barely any noise at all and if there was it wasn't loud or during the night. The parts of the resort that wasn't still under renovation were perfect. Good food, animation and phenominal views. The employees were extremely nice and warm hearthed. Especially two people, Willy from the pool and Rebecca from the bar. Both those people (and all of them but especially them) were always smiling, making jokes and took time to have a conversation with you. Check-out went smooth aswell, beceause we had to leave early they were so kind to still provide breakfast before the restaurant opened. To summarize my review, this resort is the perfect place for a great vacation!
Fulfilling restful stay
I have not been to Diani in ages. I picked Baobab Beach Resort and Spa based on the reviews and they did not disappoint. Right from the lobby/reception to the dining area to the pool attendants and the kids club, the staff were very friendly and professional. The premises is clean and so are the rooms. Monkeys are quite annoying but this is a great place to choose to go on Holiday. I especially loved the kids club. They engaged my kids in activities while I relaxed and that was an absolute plus. Shout out to Bahati from the kids club! Keep it up! I’ll most definitely be back.
Fantastic experience
We spent 14 days at this resort as a family and had an amazing experience from start to finish. The location is simply breathtaking. The lodges are beautifully integrated into a paradise-like landscape, surrounded by majestic baobab trees that give the resort a unique character. There are countless places to relax under their branches, whether on a pool bed, in the shade, or while enjoying the spectacular views. The beach is another highlight. It is beautiful, well-maintained, and easily accessible from all parts of the resort. Directly opposite lies Robinson Island, which I highly recommend visiting for snorkeling. Local beach vendors can arrange trips there; if you get the chance, look for Isaac, who was excellent. Food was consistently very good throughout our stay. The beach bar restaurant was a particular favorite, offering a great selection of fish, meat, and vegetarian dishes, along with opportunities to try delicious local cuisine. There was enough variety to keep meals interesting even during a two-week stay. The staff deserve special recognition. Everyone we met was friendly, welcoming, and genuinely eager to help. Their positive attitude contributed greatly to the overall atmosphere of the resort. Our room was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. Housekeeping did an excellent job every day, and room service was reliable and efficient. A few additional points worth mentioning:
There are monkeys living around the resort, which adds to the tropical atmosphere. They generally keep to themselves and are entertaining to watch. Despite clear warnings, some guests still attempted to feed them, which is never a good idea. The resort mentions a dinner dress code requiring long sleeves for men. In practice, this seemed more of a recommendation than a strictly enforced rule. There were some ongoing maintenance and construction works during our stay. We were informed about them in advance, and honestly, they had little to no impact on our holiday experience.
Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this resort to families and anyone looking for a relaxing beach holiday in a truly unique and beautiful setting. We would gladly return.
