The hotel with its about 100 rooms is beautiful to nature with imbedded., you feel on arrival immediately. The rooms are after all renovated, which you but at some corners with a little construction noise reckon, which however not really disturbing was. You also had always the opportunity the rooms to change. The employees were very friendly and always tried hard, everything clean and beautiful to hold. We booked full board, what we all also absolutely recommend can (with enclosed with full board are the soft drinks, table wines, as well as every day 1 bottle of water, 1 liter ..., in the room) The hotel while we were there only about 30% occupied (so about 40 guests, of which the half italians and the other half german, swiss, etc.), ws for us of course a dream was, as we the whole complex almost just for us had ☺ read more

    The rooms are big enough. In the older rooms (we had 16 d, not so recommendable, since there were already very, very old and worn. We had however not a problem, since we only for sleeping there, beds were very comfortable with mosquito nets), tv (a german program, ZDF), air conditioning and fan, refrigerator, kettle and coffee and tea plus 1 bottle of water free of charge. Enough closet, safe is also available. We have also the new room, they are very nice, with large bed, large windows (schiebeelemente), nice bathroom and so on. Rooms are available at any time, without any problems (and if what are free) be exchanged.

  • Gastronomy
    5.0

    There is 1 main restaurant and 1 pizzeria (is located at the small pool). The selection of dishes is rather small but delicious! For breakfast, there is coffee, tea and 2-3 freshly squeezed juices, bread, toast, fresh pancakes, eggs in all variants, 3 different kinds of jam, sausage, cheese, etc. Also sweet pastries (Croissant and so on). Also always fresh fruits (mangoes, water, honeydew melons, pineapple, bananas, passion fruit, papayas and so on) To the lunch and dinner there is always soup, fresh salad, fish (delicious), chicken, meat. Potatoes, rice, sometimes also delicious mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables, Also dessert (tasty creams), as well as cakes. Also in the afternoon you can at the bar free coffee/tea, in addition there were cakes or cookies, sometimes also punchbowl (with and without alcohol) What do you want?! On fridays, there was always an african evening, including african. Food (as they all the tables in the small pool of, and decorated) a praise goes to the entire staff! And at the beach there was a campfire, where noel, the entertainer, with his guitar and internally. Songs sings (he sings even 'above the clouds', the crooked laugh ☺, in Afrika!) The atmosphere in this hotel is very easy going, you will very quickly port (if you want) Tips weren't expected, but we have very often and gladly, since the staff really deserved it (we gave also the entertainers and so on)

  • Service

    The friendliness and the service of the staff we found brilliant! Almost all of the staff are so sincere, have always a smile for the guests and are hard even to learn german, it is, if you a few sentences teaches. Also they are very helpful (there one gladly gave tips) Room cleaning takes place once daily and the staff is very hard-working to keep everything clean, decorate also times flowers. There is every day fresh towels, (if you want, you can also every day at the front desk its towels for fresh change, if you need it?) Dealing with complaints will quickly. Also sit in the food the gm Thomas and his girlfriend Jana (both super nicely) with in the restaurant, which always an ear to lend for proposals, problems etc.. Have. Many thanks to Jana and Thomas for the great boat trip and kayak through the mangroves!

  • Sport & Entertainment
    5.0

    There were many excursions (snorkelling (which is not really worth it, since the water very murky and the corals are broken) From kayaking to the mangroves, fishing, various boat trips, by bike to watamu. Walks along the beach at low tide. Or different safaris. The entertainers are very hard (but not pushy at all) the guests to converse. It is with beach strolls, Volleyball, cycling, billiards, archery, table tennis or darts. It was always nice and funny with them. Thanks to the 3 animators. If you wanted to dive, can Jimmy (or James syndromal) book, is the large pool, he spoke very good german. At the beach and at the pool were always enough chairs and sun screens available (but there were hardly any guests as) So it was at the large pool also always very calm and pleasant!

    The hotel is approximately 2 hours away from Mombasa. The next town is watamu (easy by bike or tuk tuk to reach) The complex is located on a beautiful bay (including chairs and sunscreens). At low tide, you could also with the entertainers or alone every day the larger beach (don't forget to bring sunscreen!) , best also something to drink, as it a piece of to walk, but very worth it ☺ On the complex there is a main restaurant, pizzeria at the small pool, as well as a small shop with the usual snacks and souvenirs.

The Temple point is just perfect for the vacation wish to rest and relaxation but also for good entertainment for the vacationers, what of the day variety search. Especially nice the evening shows, which with a lot of love for the detail and the culture of the country vacations closer. You feel good straight away arrived by the open art of all busy in the hotel. It was for me, my 7. trip to Kenya, the first in Temple point and i promise, we will be back! read more

    Two secure beaches right next to hotel through no streets with a few steps away. Airport malindi in short distance. The next village watamu on foot or by its own bike within easy reach. Disco kalaharie with live music at a location nearby. Very good restaurants in fußläufigkeit. For the hotel waiting taxis or at best belong vehicles book. But there is in the hotel also a very good restaurant at the small pool with italian cuisine. This kitchen with a large wood-oven completed we had a very nice chef McDonald's our cooking class us in the kenyan cuisine introduced, made tremendous fun. Simply inquire and go there. Excursions at reasonable prices and every budget package. Whether diving shopping or safaris. Everything from experienced hand.

The hotel for our family the best what could have happened. The room was modern, bright and cozily furnished. Our view was every morning on the mida creek, where we the nature already in the morning could observe. Huge windows, very nice. Our roomboy has every day the bed with flowers. The food was so great, that it also our son tasted, the fruit pirate, has sent him a lot of fruits carved, so there was always an extra portion vitamins. The guests as a large family, nobody is alone, and yet every the peace and quiet that he needs. read more

    Well, what can you say, we were in the zimmeran on mida creek building, and they are slle newly renovated and not only the... New rooms are because... The windows are no window more there are large doors, with a large terrace or balcony before, as its privacy. The rooms as bathrooms are work has been done, the modern, yet in the african style integrate... Stupid word. Everything paast... Flat screen tv, kettle, coffee every day new, hair dryer, we also had two sinks in the bathroom... Such a beautiful room for a family, where everyone inside probably felt, and his area had... My men usually on the big sofa of the terrace with colorful large pillows.

    The food is so well-balanced, that you always found something, of fish, beef, pork, salad and so on. There was the main restaurant and a pizzeria ( the is a dream, food under the stars sky) of course the food. At the cleanliness is nothing to complain about, it is on the whole hotel rarely respected. Ieinmal in the week is african evening, people you time the samosas try, we stayed at the cooking school, in the hotel in the afternoon made, and in the evening eaten... Very good! Tips were in the BOX next to the front desk, i think fair, so everyone got a bit and not only the already the most get. It has already someone about mr.. Karissa, the Cappuccino man written, i agree. Great!

    Friendliness, is not only one word... It was lived in the Temple point, and directly from the heart. Thomas and Jana are always there, if you in the morning at breakfast looks, or, if you with buying in malindi is, you always have an ear to lend for their guests. I had a surprise for my husband planned, and must still say thank you Jana, we will never forget. Thick hug! The waiters try more and more to speak german, and to learn. Rooms are always picko bello... Super dupi. My son was also always in good hands, if the entertainers it took... Not intrusive. But as! If you stay here the word complaints in the mouth is unfortunately in bottles of hotel. Binkendes light, is no complaint people, it will be fixed quickly.

Everything was clean and tidy and with very much love to the hotel, also from the staff. Rare opportunity, the the employees a hotel as your own nurture.

    We had us in advance with the hotel in touch (thanks to Jana) and they advised us after malindi right to fly, and from there we were met with the hotel sportster picked up. 20 minutes and we were in the hotel. A very courteous driver was waiting for us. For shopping you could ride a bike, or relax with a tuk tuk for 200 ksh drive. Directly on mida creek you can no nicer nature imagine. Also the beach is wonderful, at low tide you can walk around the rocks around and kilometer long run, and at the end beckons ice cream for one child. It is very exciting.

At a very nice section in a nature park. The hotel is very well-kept, the houses in the lamu style very nice, although a bit older, is all very clean and tidy and large enough anyway. Security abundant. All are very pleasant and you will be always friendly with a 'jambo' welcomes. To the meals there are soft drinks and wine in addition. Drink prices are for our standards were cheap. If you booked half board you can also the meals change so lunch instead of dinner. Afternoon gives it to coffee and snacks for free. Opposite the front desk ... sit Mali there you can book excursions. You can also at the guarded beach book which also problem-free and a bit cheaper. Next to Mali the gästebetreuerin Leila which always for questions and problems, as is. (spoke very good german). Guests mainly italians and germans, the percentage varies. The complex has a large pool and a guarded beach at the sea. (beach chairs and towels were free of charge-towels at the front desk exchange) careful at low tide in the best use bathing shoes because you have to go far out and the current. Snorkeling on the beach is nothing you have to with the botel was a snorkeling excursion book. It is also possible, a paddle tour in the mangroves to make or other boat trips. At the bar you can very comfortable the evening drink, guests amongst others the many cushions a. The food is of course not as in a 5 star hotel, because for this number may not wide choice are offered. The food is however well, there are at least two main dishes you can but also anytime is pasta, pasta, spaghetti prepared. Desserts there was also very nice and delicious the fresh fruit which you freshly prepared. Breakfast is as in almost every good hotel of course, you could also be omelet the choice made to order. Delicious all the fresh juice in the morning. In the afternoon you can also the 2. small pool pizza eat out which is very good. Wifi is in the hotel available i even had good receipt in the bungalow (nr 15). The german hotel manager Thomas and its partner Jana are mostly the meals in the restaurant and are available for questions available and help gladly. In the town of watamu (circa 5 kilometer) you can take the hotel bike or one orders itself a tuk tuk (circa 3 Euro a drive). There you can see how the people live, a bar/disco and in the snake farm go (is been interesting). The entertainment in the hotel is luckily not intrusive, if you don't want to take part is also not hassled. In the evening there is often a show. (circus arts, circus, folklore and so on.) I personally was in Kenya for the first time and so i have no comparison with other hotels in Kenya. But i have with many guests spoken which in other hotels in Kenya were already and only here again. I do not have already very lots of hotels on all continents learned and find Temple point no need to hide. Would stay again. Matthias read more

    The hotel is rather remote and is ideal for those seeking peace, einkaufssmöglichkeiten are only with the tuk tuk to reach. Beach was nice, but rather small. The way to the longbeach was further than we thought. There is many excursions close, but not within walking distance, but with the tuk tuk not a problem.

Very nice hotel, the extensive and really great location has. Those who seek peace and quiet - something original (so no concrete block ) - is in the right place here. But only, if you definitely not bars, cafe and so on also outside the hotel need. Watamu is with the taxi about 5 minutes away - offers but loud recommendation of the hotel staff only two options (also visited itself). You can partying, however it is for young kenyan rather the contact-brokering service. Older europeans/inside are here from everywhere. We found a little scary. In the hotel also boottrips ... and so on offered, but really expensive. Recommendable are the massages - the premises are although it is very, very simple - but can found than adequate be. The massages are reasonably priced between 20 and 30 Euro. But are still negotiable. Safaris: Will of each offered important, is definitely assure leave, that the transfer from the hotel to the national park (tsavo) not over mombasar is. Direct connection about 1.5 hours travel time by. Over mombasar minutes 3,5-6 hours! A information, which we prior to so did not. Depending on the traffic situation in mombasar, can the shuttle from the airport to Hotel Minuten 2 hours - 3,5 hours take. We are in the early at about 7 hours and have 3 hours to everything needed, on the return flight (start at 3:30 o'clock) - so almost no traffic - 2 hours! We would now in our buchungsüberlegungen with integrated. In short: who peace want, nice people - is in the right place here. Apart from that rather Diani Beach and so on. read more

The hotel has a paradisiac and really quiet location, in the middle of a well-kept parks. The sea is clean, without jelly fish etc. You feels from the first moment onwards in very good hands. The staff are always friendly and competent and the boss, Thomas, care itself in order to the welfare of the guests. The breakfast and the dinner (with the half-board) left nothing to be desired, particularly the fruit bar is simply great. The prices at the drinks bar are perfectly acceptable. The houses and their decor in the swahili-style ensure a pleasant atmosphere. For excursions local ... (for example free canoe tour through the mangroves) and regional for example. En gedi and tsavo west is well catered for. The guest mixture is true. I there get a good rest and nevertheless country and people good met. Heinz Heinz read more

As a part of individually planned keniarundreise we have one week in Temple point energy for the subsequent safari refueled. The complex is a little bit out of town of watamu beautifully on a green-clad headland location. Everything is clean, well kept and pleasantly spacious. To the facilities belong two dreamlike beaches (bays with white sand), at low tide, you could go far into the flat sloping (crystal-clear ) water go out. Besides is the complex on fjordähnlichen creek, from where you kayak and boat tours undertake can. The entire area is paradise. Our room was huge with veranda, large ... shower bath and in a free-standing 2-storey house. The breakfast buffet left really nothing to be desired (i even got a chili and fresh vegetables prepared omelet), the within the complex tucked away located pizzeria us as italy fans as convinced as the main restaurant. Huge saltwater pool, everything was very well-kept. The hotel manager Thomas tried personally about the well-being of its guests, so we started from the first second on right to recover. The daily offered leisure activities we didn't use, other travellers reported however inspired on the organisation and vielfältigkeiten the excursions etc. To our reiseteit very pleasant, international audience (no russians!). Back at the cold Germany we are already now the next vacation, this time with children. Thomas told us, that a development of the untouched adjoining coastline probably was impossible. We hope, that always remains in such a way, so that this tucked away, paradise is not destroyed. read more

    The distance to the cleanest beach watamu's is a stone's throw, directly to the hotel beach. By bike, what i in the hotel could borrow, i am also the main rode around. Oh dear, there was the whole beach of full of seaweed. Not nice, therefore i am back to the hotel for swimming. In the evening i am then with other guests in the two bars... Where you can choose... Pull... Or just have fun. Gone there we are with a tuk tuk, and back with the taxi.

I think that it, as Oscar wild: who tells the truth, sooner or later there caught. But you have to have the heaven on earth on this special place in the world to visit. The hotel is situated in a paradise garden right next to the sea in a absolute wonderful, quiet bay with crystal clear water and the magic of rest and relaxation nothing stands in the way. Exquisite, very varied food and good wines. Because of the great selection of soups, salads, fruit is a full board really recommendable and the liquidation value. Great tip at the check-in. ... Pure enjoyment from the start, the chef ' hitvertächtig' and not even increased, -unbelievable, but true. The rooms are always lovingly Gabriel cleaned and surprise there was daily a creative flowers arrangement on bed, everything was very clean, the bathroom large and enchanting flair of welcome makes the days of vacation a real oasis for body, spirit and soul. The good soul in the hotel with guarantee Leila!

The hotel lies slightly off the beaten track of watamu and is directly at the mangroves built. The bungalows have a nice size and fit very nicely in the garden a. Facilities is already somewhat older and is being renovated. The chef is for two years German and it tries more German guests in the complex to get. The guests are mostly Italian. We once had to the room change, as water through the ceiling. Was very quickly and without grumbling done and we had only a few minutes a new room received. There were only very few guests on ... the complex, which we appreciated a lot. In spite of the low attendance was not about the food save and it always something gave tasty. The staff's hospitality is incredible and we were always treated very obligingly. New year's eve was our favorite waiter, as he always with an honest smile to the table and from every guest the name knew. Excursions are a must and should better with the beach boys to be booked, as that are less expensive and the same as the hotel. Safari was perfect and is can only be recommended. mida creek tour in the mangroves was also very nice, only the snorkeling isn't recommendable, since everything with seaweeds overgrown and also otherwise in the comparison little can be seen. Diving was beautiful despite a lot of plancton in the water, but is rather rare at this time of the year. read more

We had a short break planned around the batteries recharge our batteries and this objective has been wholeheartedly reached. The infrastructure is beautiful and you feel good straight away at home. Staff are very friendly and the management very professional. Also with exceptional situations as wide open peaceful safe was very competent handled \u263a thanks again to all! The two spacious pools made up for the lack of direct access to a private sandy beach. Not a problem also, because you access to a long white beach right nearby has! Excursions were very personable or wishes competently gives you. Of ... freshly prepared scrambled eggs in the morning to special requests in the evening left the buffet nothing to be desired. Particularly to mention are the excellent pizzas and pasta the comparison with the local italian probably would win. All in all it was a succesful vacation and we can definitely recommend this hotel.
