The hotel was new, the room was spacious with very modern decoration. The Walls were clean. The Windows in the room had mosquito nets, so there were no mosquitoes in the room. The bed was very comfortable and the shower had hot water in the afternoon and evening. It was a bit colder water in shower in the morning but as the weather was warm we did not mind. The staff was helpful and very kind. The hotel has the restaurant so you could choose from nice options for lunch or dinner. We enjoyed the eurppean style breakfast that was very tasty. We also enjoyed the swimming in the pool and relaxing in the Garden where gou could spot different kind of animals ( monkeys, chameleons and others). The hotel is modern with african style, so We enjoyed our stay very much being surrounded by African nature. The Diani Beach is 12 minutes by walk or you can call local and hotel tuk tuk for cheap price. The hotel also organizes the trip to Wasini island which we recommend as we were swiming with dolphins and snorkeling in the ocean. The hotel provided everything we needed for our vacation and it was our best hotel we stayed in whole Kenya. Well done to German owners who did their best to fullfil our expectations and needs. Thank youn and we will definitely choose your hotel if we are back in Kenya.

Where to start. GREAT EXPERIENCE. *Check-in* I arrived late in the evening as I booked the room last minute and they were just closing their admin for the day. Still though, the welcome was great. I had had a nightmare day with other accommodations that I had to cancel so it was a relief to see friendly faces and get a freshly squeezed juice :) *The room - part 1* I stayed for 3 nights, the first of which was in a regular double room, the 2nd and 3rd nights were in the safari tent. Starting with the regular room. This was great, the bed was very big and very comfortable. The shower is saltwater which was actually fine, I could barely tell the difference. The room itself has a very calm, relaxed feel about it. There is a stocked fridge with fresh water and other drinks, lots of plug sockets etc, and a very good mosquito net over the bed. *The room - part 2* For nights 2 and 3, I stayed in the Safari tent which was amazing. It is a self contained solid housetent close to the beach. Once again the bed was huge and comfortable, with a great mosquito net. There are two single beds in there also - probably great for families sharing the same space. The bathroom / pantry room is quite big, with plenty of space on the dressing surface, shelves, a fridge and kettle. There is a large terrace with dinner table with beach view through some trees, this also includes a day bed. One thing to look out for is not to leave food on the table because the monkeys will have it! They're not aggressive at all though, just cheeky and opportunistic, and very cute *SCUBA Diving* I hadn't intended to do any diving at all but I bumped into some of the instructors and they talked me through what was available. I went for the very reasonably priced beginner experience (165eu for 3 dives, one in the pool to learn the equipment, then two at sea off the boat). I loved all three. *Staff* I've run out of space but everyone was amazing. Breakfast was sensational too.

My stay in Diani was absolutely amazing.The place was clean, comfortable, and had everything I needed. The kitchen was wellequipped, the pool was sparkling clean, and the entire environment was peaceful and relaxing. Our host, Queen, was outstanding always just a call away, super helpful, and very friendly. She went out of her way to recommend great places to visit and fun things to do around Diani. Her hospitality made our trip even more Let's not talk about the staff very helpful,kind..... Highly recommend this place! The place is also baby/family friendly I’ll definitely be back.

I had a wonderful time at Casa Marabella in Diani! The apartment was beautifully maintained, clean, and very comfortable — perfect for a relaxing getaway. The location is excellent, close to the beach and local attractions, yet peaceful and private. What truly made my stay exceptional was the staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and went out of their way to ensure I felt at home. Their hospitality made all the difference. I highly recommend Casa Marabella to anyone visiting Diani – I’ll definitely be coming back!

    Communication with the property was good. Julia checked the property suited our needs which it did and confirmed our time of arrival. She also brought an extra mattress for our child. The property was large. Air conditioning and fan worked well. It was very clean upon arrival and was cleaned well during our stay. The location on the beach 3 mins walk was amazing. We had a great time.

The location is great, you are only 3 minutes from the beach, in front of resort you can easily get a ride with tuk tuk-also affordable prices. We enjoyed so much. Thank you Aqua♥️

    Very mixed feelings. The location is really nice. Bar at the beach has really nice padded benches where you sit barefoot in the sand. Food is really good and beer prices are very affordable. Room was very spacious, matresses were also great. I took kiteboarding lessons from the spot directly by the beach bar and the guys there were all very nice. The beach is so nice to walk on... like a dream
