Top Malindi Hotel Reviews

Swahili House

8/10 Good

"Swahili House is a beautiful property, well maintained and with the most helpful staff, Rose and Amos. The property is right next to Malaika Restaurant that has amazing sea food and if you walk down the road there is a local restaurant that sells delicious Swahili food. The only area for improvement is the shower - the water pressure is very low. Otherwise this is an excellent property for solo travelers or a couple. Will definitely be coming back!"

Kilili Baharini Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"This is my second stay at this hotel. The beachfront location is ideal, with plenty of seating and lounging area to take in the ocean view. Though not necessarily modern, the rooms have a classic elegance about them. The staff is friendly and helpful. The evening mosquito net service is a nice amenity."

Billionaire Resort & Retreat

10/10 Excellent

"The entire stay was beautiful,the facilities were excellent and online photos dont bring out the beauty of the place. Breakfast was beautifully served. Sadly we had to leave..we will definitely b2 back.."

Lion in the Sun Boutique Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful, elegant and comfy resort. The spa is definitely worth a visit.. Dining, outside bar and pools all added to a wonderful, relaxing experience. Not having access to the beach at the resort was a bit disappointing (wish it was clearly stated on Expedia) but shuttle to their sister resort (the little Gelato place made up for it;) with access to the beach was very convenient. Will be back for a longer stay."
