Diamonds Malindi

Excellent stay with comfortable rooms, great facilities, and a welcoming atmosphere. The staff were professional, attentive, and always ready to assist, making the experience truly enjoyable.

I recently stayed at Diamonds Malindi in Kenya, and it offered a relaxing and scenic coastal escape with a strong focus on comfort and laid-back luxury. The resort is beautifully set along the Malindi coastline, with lush tropical gardens and easy access to the beach. The atmosphere is peaceful, making it especially suitable for couples, families, or anyone looking to unwind away from busy city life. The beachfront views and ocean breeze create a truly calming environment throughout the stay. The staff were consistently warm, professional, and attentive, contributing significantly to the overall experience. Service across the resort—from reception to dining—was smooth and welcoming, with a genuine effort to make guests feel at home. Rooms are spacious and well-maintained, featuring comfortable bedding and essential amenities. While the design leans more toward classic beach-resort style rather than ultra-modern luxury, everything is kept clean and functional. Rooms closer to the beach or pool area are especially enjoyable due to the views and easy access. The food selection was varied and enjoyable, with a mix of international and local Kenyan cuisine. Dining by the ocean added a nice touch to the overall experience. The pool area and beach setup are well-kept and offer plenty of space to relax. Overall, Diamonds Malindi is a great choice for travelers seeking a calm, scenic, and comfortable beachfront stay with friendly service and a relaxed atmosphere. It’s less about high-energy activities and more about slowing down and enjoying the coastal beauty of Kenya.

Was a pleasant vacation I had at Diamonds Malindi. The staff were quite friendly, the activities and entertainment were good fun. My wife and I really enjoyed it.

房間是老式木傢俱風格，沒有電視，有個小冰箱，不提供拖鞋，牙刷要去前台找服務員要。小蟲子比較多，蒼蠅也多，你去吃東西它也去吃東西。酒店不大環境還是挺舒服的

Wonderful wonderful service and food! Authentic Kenyan cuisine! The beach front is amazing also! recommend!

We are currently staying at this hotel and unfortunately, the experience has been very disappointing given the category and expectations. While the property itself has potential and the pool area is pleasant, the overall service and operational standards fall significantly short. Check-in experience: Arrival was poorly managed, with only one staff member handling guests. She was polite but clearly overwhelmed, resulting in delays and a disorganized process. Lack of basic support: No porters were available, and we had to carry our own luggage to the rooms, assisted only by an intern. This is not what one would expect at this level. Room standards and maintenance: The rooms did not meet expected cleanliness standards. One of the toilets was visibly unclean on arrival, and it took over an hour for housekeeping to attend. More concerning, maintenance issues such as a non-functioning flush and a clogged shower were not proactively addressed and required repeated follow-ups over more than a day to resolve. Additionally, the staircase to one of our rooms was very steep and potentially dangerous in the event of a fall, raising safety concerns. Responsiveness and service: Calls to reception frequently went unanswered, making it difficult to get timely assistance. Housekeeping was inconsistent and only done after repeated follow-up. The restaurant service was slow and inattentive, and the hotel appears to rely heavily on interns without adequate supervision, which is reflected in the overall guest experience. Lack of management follow-through: These issues were formally escalated to management via email during our stay. Unfortunately, there has been no follow-up or improvement, which is particularly disappointing. Overall: The facilities themselves show promise, but the operational execution is poor. There is a clear gap in service delivery, responsiveness, and attention to detail. We hope to see improvements during the remainder of our stay and would be happy to update this review if the issues are addressed.

Its a nice and quite place relax and have some good time, everyone was welcome with a nice smile and more thanks to the gentleman at the beach bar . He was amazing .

Stunning location, great variety of pools, bars and restaurants . The food was delicious with mid morning and mid afternoon snacks too. The only thing I would say is there isn’t a huge amount for teenagers who aren’t sporty (beach volleyball and waterpolo is available). Our son did the woodwork workshop although that was just watching a guy make a magnet (although appreciate you can’t give kids tools) and then sand and varnish the animal. Maybe something as simple as some balls in the fun pool for guests to use. Three and a half days was enough for us. We did a safari before hand so we were in need of some chill time. We took a taxi to Hells Kitchen which is definitely worth a visit.
