“A slice of paradise that the community share with us.”
+Buildings made from local materials and they incorporated the local trees well within the setting to make it feel really natural and special. Staff are genuinely friendly. They were proud of the resort and happy to share. The majority of the staff came from the local community so provided value to the region. Food was fantastic The swimming pool was nice and deep
−If it was busy, the pool and seating area is too small.

“Best experience in the south coast of Kenya”
+Where to start... This hotel was the final stop on our trip to the coast of Kenya, and we decided to look for a place a bit more isolated and far from Diani. Well, we made the perfect choice! Everything at Mwazaro is designed to make you feel right at home, and they definitely succeeded! The hotel is located about an hour from Diani, close to Shimoni, with no other hotels nearby. It is difficult to describe how beautiful the scenery around the hotel is, with the beach right next to it and a huge lagoon in front. We stayed in a standard double room, and the views were breathtaking; waking with the sunrise and so close to the beach was unforgettable! The staff is exceptionally attentive and friendly; I can honestly say that the service is the best I have ever experienced in Kenya or anywhere else. I would like to thank everyone for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable. A special mention goes to the chef, the food was a 10/10 for both breakfast and dinner, making dining one of the highlights of each day. Having breakfast and dinner included is recommended, as there are no other easily accessible restaurants or bars nearby. The hotel offers several excursions to choose from. We
−That we could not stay longer...

“Mwazaro Magic”
+Absolute peace and quiet. Right on the ocean shore; wonderful, warm, welcoming staff. A great getaway to recharge - perfect 'vtamin sea'. Beautiful sunrise, amazing food, excellent accommodation. It's also lovely to see that the lodge has thought about sustainability, such as solar power, reverse osmosis, reclaimed materials, locally sourced food etc. I can't wait to go back. 💕

“A luxury place in the middle of nowhere”
+We actually wanted to go to more well-known and prestigious resorts, but they were all fully booked over New Year's - who would have thought? That turned out to be our good fortune. We ended up in a much less touristy area, where we could take solitary walks on the beach, go on trips to nearby caves and villages, and simply experience a more authentic Kenya. The staff are fantastic, everyone is friendly, but not in the way they are at the big tourist resorts, they are much more authentic. I believe and hope that these people have a good place to work. We stayed in a small bungalow, simply beautiful, no reason to complain. The restaurant was also good and tried to fulfil all our wishes. The cuisine was mainly Italian, but they also serve traditional Kenyan dishes on request. This place is ideal for people who want to hear the wind, the ocean and its counterpart. Music was only played in the restaurant and was turned down significantly on request. The staff are acoustically discreet and almost all the guests are too (the latter may have been just luck). Simply a place that invites you to visit again.
−Even after a couple of weeks I don't remember anything really disturbing.

“Pleasent and relaxed stay with great staff”
+I love the friendly staff och the beautiful environment. The food was also excellent. Special thanks to Mildred and Pashua for making the stay so pleasant. Great place to relax.
−It is a bot remote so there is not much to do. Could have had a small gym so that you could do some workouts.

“Wir waren vollauf zufrieden.”
+Die Küche ist ausgezeichnet, und sehr innovativ, visuell ansprechend, reichhaltig. Alles wird an Ort produziert, auch das Brot. Individuellen Wünschen wird entsprochen. Hauptqualität: die Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit, Mwazaro ist definitiv ein Ort für individuelle Geniesser, abseits aller Touristenfallen. Sehr interessante Entstehungsgeschichte. Sehr verbunden mit der lokalen Community.
