Beautiful place
Pros:

Beautiful property, with a big swimmingpool, sunbeds and 2 really good restaurants. The beach is beautiful and it is possible to kite in front of the hotel. There is also a kite school. The staff is very friendly - special thanks to Alex for the service! The breakfast is great. Our room was more spacious than expected and gets cleaned really well daily.

Cons:

We got the room at the entrance and that felt very noisy. We could hear anybody leaving or returing, as both cars and tuktuks can stop right next to the room and people stop chatting there. If we return to Diani, we would choose again for Flamboyant but ask for another room.
Also, like in all Diani, there are pretty pushy vendors in front of the hotel at the beach.

Pros:

It is located nice as it is closer to the airport and beach. Food such as breakfast and dinner tasted good. They allowed us to have late check out as the room is available on that day. We could stay comfortably.

Cons:

Nothing

Nagyon jó hely, szívesen visszajönnénk bármikor.
Pros:

Közvetlenül a parton található, így 2 perc sétával az óceánban lehet lenni. Van saját napozós része is a parton. Valamint egy saját medence. Nyugodt környéken van, így tökéletesen lehet pihenni. Kevés szobája van, így nincs nagy tömeg sem. Az étterem és az ételek jók. A személyzet kiemelkedően kedves és barátságos, valamint segítőkész.

Cons:

A mi szobánkban a sötétítőfüggöny fehér volt, ami abszolút nem sötétített, így napkeltekor hajnalban már teljesen világos volt a szoba. A csapok és tusfejek vízkövesek, emiatt a víz nehezebben folyik.

Vacanza super rilassante
Pros:

Hotel molto bello, direttamente sulla spiaggia di Diani.
La camera era enorme con letto king size e bagno confortevole.
Al piano terra c’è il ristorante, dove al mattino si fa colazione, che è molto buono con menu ampio.
Piscina molto bella e tranquilla con comode sdraio.
C’è anche la spiaggia privata dell’hotel.
Nota di merito ad Angie che è sempre stata gentilissima e disponibile con noi fin da prima che arrivassimo via messaggio anche per organizzare le gite.
Nei pressi dell’hotel c’è anche un altro ristorante correlato, buono.
Per gli amanti degli sport accanto all’hotel ci sono due diving (molto professionali entrambi) e una scuola di kite surf.

Cons:

La serratura della nostra camera era un po’ vecchia e facevamo spesso fatica ad entrare in camera.
Le tende “notturne” purtroppo sono molto sottili e bianche per cui personalmente facevo fatica a dormire perché appena albeggiava la stanza era inondata di luce.
Inoltre essendo la nostra camera sopra la cucina alle 6:20 venivamo sempre svegliati da un rumore martellante, probabilmente l’utilizzo di coltelli per i cibi da servire a colazione.
Le scelte per la colazione sono molto ampie per chi fa la colazione continentale, ci sono invece scelte più ristrette per chi predilige quella dolce.

We had a very relaxing time at the hotel with excellent service provided by staff and management.
Pros:

Both the management team and the staff provided us with an outstanding level of service. The management team went out of their way to help
us get the best out of our stay and the service provided by the restaurant staff was exemplary. The food both at breakfast, lunch and dinner, both in the hotel and next door at Faulty’s offered a wide choice of menu and the quality was excellent. We were very pleased to have a powerful hot shower as the other hotels we had stayed at in Kenya seemed
not to be able to provide this.

Cons:

Very little, if anything. There was some
discrepancy between the description of our room provided on booking.com and the actual room provided. We were offered an alternative room, but this was not necessary as we were quite happy with what we had.

Pros:

Es un hotel pequeño, pero muy bonito y cuidado. Nos gustó que estaba todo muy limpio, incluida la piscina y la playa. Al anochecer pasaban por la habitación con insecticida.
Tenían agua potable siempre disponible en los pasillos.
Tiene dos restaurantes con cartas diferenciadas, todas las cenas y algunas comidas las hicimos allí y comimos bien, en general. Los desayunos son buenos y abundantes.
Tiene acceso directo a la playa y zona de tumbonas y camas junto al mar y junto a la piscina.

Cons:

Reservamos una habitación "con vista al mar" y es cierto que se veía el océano, pero el cristal de la ventana estaba muy sucio por fuera y no se podía disfrutar de la vista.
Siendo un hotel de playa, estaría bien disponer de una zona para secar la ropa de baño.

Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal, wir waren zeitweise die einzigen Gäste, da fühlt sich die gesamte Anlage mit umfangreichem Garten schon sehr luxuriös an. Schneller, direkter Zugang zum feinen Sandstrand. Das Essen (Frühstück und Abendessen) wird zur gewünschten Zeit zubereitet und war sehr lecker.

Cons:

Nebenan ist aktuell eine Baustelle, von wo den ganzen Tag über Lärm herüber kommt.

Unterkunft an guter Lage
Pros:

Die Lage so nah am Strand wahr herrlich.Toller Strand. Nervige Beach Boys aber das gehört zu Kenia .Viele gute Resturants in der umgebung.Das Bett hat gute Matratzen.Trinkwasser ist gratis das finden wir Super.Gute auswahl beim Frühstück.Freundliches Personal.

Cons:

Das Zimmer war uns zu Dunkel. Keine Bestellung im Restaurant hat geklappt. Vorspeise wurde vergessen , getränke nur die hälfte gebracht. Bestellung ganz vergessen. Auf der Karte steht 3 Pancake mit Vanille Joghurt. Gekommen sind jeweils zwei Pancake und nie ein Joghurt. für uns hat es nicht eine grosse Rolle gespielt für die das die das Frühstück bezahlen, finde ich es relevant.
