“More Than Expected”
+Waterlover's Beach Resort exceeded my expectations in more than one way. The staff were all friendly and went out of their way to ensure one has a great stay. The size of the resort made it great for a romantic getaway or a solo & relaxing trip to unwind. The rooms were all well decorated, clean, and modern. The restaurant and bars had great service. The food was great, but would like to see a few more seafood options placed on the menu. I could not have asked for a better place to stay in Diani. The view was unbelievable!

+Location is beautiful if you don’t try to leave the property. Nice shower, beautiful area. Tasty food
−Beach boys in front of the hotel are extremely annoying. The tour which was organized by the hotel to see the underwater animals - horrible. The guide didn’t respect the nature. He took out some stars etc.and guests were playing with them. This should not happen

“Excellent location for an unplugged restorative time away from the city”
+- The manager, Peter, was very warm and came outside to the cab to greet and welcome me on arrival. - The team is overall very attentive and gives personalised attention to you: you have assigned staff who regularly update you on who will take care of you and when handover is expected. This is for housekeepers, waiters/waitresses and the people who are stationed at the reception desk. - It was a perfect location for a solo vacation as well. I felt safe and not overwhelmed by the hotel because of its size, you feel like you are experiencing the property on your own with little mixing with other visitors. - A perfect location for a no itinerary holiday where you swim, eat, sleep and rest. - I loved the non alcoholic iced dawas. - Julius made great recommendations for dinner & I enjoyed everything he recommended. - The beach is right by the property with day beds that are well covered to lounge in for hours on end with a great view of the ocean.

“Excellent hotel, fantastic food, well worth the price - add an extra day, you'll thank yourself.”
+The property is fantastic and exactly as pictured. Each room no matter where you are assigned has a stunning view of the beach/ocean. For the food - every single thing we ate was delicious and the cocktails are well prepared. Be sure to try the gazpacho - it is perfect after a hot day in the sun! There are plenty of places to lounge so you don't need to wake up early and 'reserve' a beach chair - we never had a problem and there are different spaces to sit (chairs, beds, hammock). My only regret is not staying longer.
−There was a mix up with the airport pickup (there are two local airports, FYI) but the hotel apologized and made it right.

“Perfect place to relax after safaris. Just great”
+There´s no simple words to describe the feeling you get as soon as you cross the gate. There´s a very well thought atmosphere of chill and kindness as soon as they tell you that u won´t need shoes or flipflops anymore :) . The suites are designed to the last level of detail to make you feel confortable, the staff is super friendly and food was the best we tried after 10 days in Kenya. The getaway location is super convenient, just 3 minutes away from the airport. The relaxed ambient makes u stay in full calm, not wanting to go anywhere else. The check out process is also great letting you stay around until the afternoon flight. I would recomend this spot to anyone willing to have a little break from safaris. Looking forward to come back in the future, and thank you very much for making our vacation even more special.
−All perfect
