A successful vacation in a nice hotel. The staff was very friendly and surprisingly have some very good speak german. To be highlighted are particularly bacari in the restaurant and Hassan and thoya at the bar, the very friendly and accommodating and especially Hassan, the us with its good mood and its strange gestures very often entertained. Tsavo west and amboseli safari were ok, but according to other guests not with the masai Mara-safari comparable. read more

We were there at the beginning of march in this hotel. We really enjoyed it. With the many monkeys on the grounds it was very funny, this to look at. The complex, as well as the various pools are very nice. What disturbed us was the non intrusiveness of the beach boys. You could not in peace at the beach walking. Shoes for the sea needs. The only thing which us about the food not acceptable was the for breakfast only one sort of sausage and cheese and in the entire week directly. Otherwise the selection was huge. read more

We were at the end of march until beginning of april 2013 in this very beautiful hotel. Actually is noisy climate during this time with lots of rain to be expected, but it was up to a morning 2-hour and evening half-hour rain nothing to see. We had great weather about 30 °c and pleasant water pool and sea. Our tip, absolutely with a safari combine, no matter wether tsavo east or west - to see there are enough. read more

This hotel is absolutely recommendable. The perfect seaside holiday! I had 5 days hotel, 4 days safari and 5 days hotel. Just perfect! In the hotel you feel totally comfortable. From the very first moment on until the departure. Everything is very good organized and you feel very welcome. Very friendly staff (no matter wether reception, cleaning staff, restaurant, employees). Food is very good and very nice ambience. If someone like snorkelling you can directly at the water sports center book, because there everything is perfect organized and works smoothly and is very cheap! I was in the Kole Kole ... section and it was just perfect. Again and again baobab and if again Kole Kole! read more

We stayed the beginning of march 2013 a outstandingly beautiful holiday in baobab beach resort and we want complimenting. For the chef - the dishes were delicious-you must visit the ' world best bread ',freshly prepared, try-and every evening the tables by topic newly restocked - nice! For the staff - everybody was polite, in a good mood and pleasant. For the entertainers - friendly, fun and ' kudos ', the evening shows were terrific-in this perfect form we have never experienced something like that. Bravo - an experience. The complex is wonder-beautiful. A dream and very well maintained-really ... everyone what he was looking for. You want it very quiet or loud - not a problem and for entertainment, there are also playing monkeys. The beach is wonderful and at low tide there is a lot to discover. We can only recommend the hotel and are already looking forward to our next vacation in baobab beach resort. read more

The best hotel on Diani Beach

The baobab beach resort was zweifelslos the best hotel what the Diani Beach to give. The neighboring hotel (were curious and have a tour through some of the hotel) are rather for the elderly or for those who need silence. In this hotel there was always something going on, the food was varied and there were different theme evenings. The entertainment is great and very friendly. The evening entertainment every evening something else and the acrobaten are all genuine professionals. The beach boys are at the start annoying but if one always a polite no thank you says they leave ... in peace. What should be noted is, and where the hotel of course has nothing to do is, that one from the airport although it is only 30 kilometer has, but unfortunately always at this ferry links. The ferry runs only 10 minutes but the standing for the overrun takes unfortunately always much too long. We have from the airport until to the hotel about 2 hours used. Pole pole say the locals always. read more

Great hotel for relaxing, as you everything from 3 hotels could use it. Had nothing to complain about. Food was very good and varied. Evening shows also very pleasant. Hotel definitely recommendable. Never so white and fine sand experienced, unfortunately the many boys very pushy, so you can the beach only conditionally enjoy. Outside not much going on. Shopping center only by taxi or bus (5-10 minutes) to reach. read more

You can't really bad about the hotel say-we was always very satisfied with everything (food, cleanliness, etc.), especially but with the extremely friendly staff, which is always in a good mood was. The only what wasn't that great, was the beach - mostly very 'algae' -but since the hotel you can not blame, finally, it is a public beach. On the ' beach boys' i can only say so much: if you go there on holiday, ask to Ali(baba)-the is really friendly, will you not tout, stops you the other from the neck and is really a kind man. ... He gave us his city, his home and life in ukunda-interesting, time not only the all-inclusive hotel. So a day everyone should make-and don't let yourself from the kenyan buses not deter ☺ read more

    On the first 2 days we slept in the baobab. Bed and room optischgut, bathroom was ok, but bad toilet. Air conditioning leaked strong (for 2 days alright). The safari we moved into the maridad room 2201 -now started our relaxing holiday! Room was large, big balcony with chairs, huge bathroom with lots of space in the shower, large flat screen tv with ZDF-front desk, safety deposit box, mini-bar (unfilled) and telephone. Air conditioning was always very cool. Cleanliness was okay! Mosquito net was available, but with us not necessary. You must always with water from bottles of water your teeth! The tap water smells.

    Each of the 3 hotels had its (e) restaurant (s) and its bar (s). Everywhere best, attentive service and the quality of the food is really good. Fish and steaks we were a bit disappointed. Also the service at the bars was quick and attentive, unfortunately the medium-sized bar at the baobab not so much. Altogether however a very high standard. Wine and the beer tasted really tidy. The cleanliness was absolutely okay, us nothing negative was noticeable. You always tried, local facilities and there were also theme evenings for men and women, beautifully decorated tables and so on. Tips were appropriate, often a 'Euro' in Dollar- or keniaschillingform.

    The whole team the baobab resorts was always friendly with a smiling 'jambo, jambo!' With english and german everything worked great. Tip at the best each 1 $or 100 keniaschillinge. Eurostücken can get nowhere swap! The rooms were always in top condition! Towels on request daily freshly, to brush your teeth you take enough free water bottles from the bar to, the tap water is absolutely unsuitable. We had in the first 2 days condensation in the corridor from of the airconditioning and the toilet flush was only moderate, one strove however. At the bar and in the restaurant always friendly service, everything worked well! Food and drinks excellent. The staff were also always with their zwillen ready, the monkeys to scare away.

    We have sports and entertainment didn't use it, but it was everything available. The entertainers were not so extremely pushy. There was a gym and sports facilities. Once we played table tennis and left us with massages-absolute class, also the pedicure for my wife. Beach and pool are uniquely beautiful. Snow white dream beach and very warm sea water, a very nicely laid out pool in every part of the hotel, everywhere you felt good, nice also the optical transition of the pool to the sea, if you swam. We always got pool chairs, towels are replaceable, every day inclusive. You should really only in the shade beach chairs, it has already on the first day with strong sunburn caught, despite cream and in the shade lying!

    The spacious hotel area was located directly at the snow-white beach, the green-turkish coloring with sandbank and palm trees on the grounds are always good for a great photo motive. The beach boys nerves however, with a bit of emphasis they remain away. Despite they were all nice and here and there some explained and showed. The transfer took about 1,5 hours ferry in Mombasa. Alone already a small adventure, one sees however, the poverty of the country. The hotel complex is absolutely reliable guarded, security is very much emphasized here! Also at the beach constantly guards and security. On the hotel there are also small shops, you have a little bit bargain, then are the prices ok. We ate only in the restaurants of the hotel and on the safari as planned, everything tasty, no stomach or intestinal problems. It is advisable, just euros notes and then in keniaschillinge to change. Our dollar wanted so quite nobody, is but also as a tip.

The hotel complex was the best we have ever experienced. The division into three areas for families with children, area for the younger crowd with animation and a fitness area with much peace is very good managed. read more

In february 2013 we stayed at the baobab /Diani Beach and can only recommend the hotel. The hotel is split in 3 areas. We had a room in the main house with mosquito nets. The rooms are big enough, but the mosquito net a few holes. I have the cleaning lady complained and we got also on the same day a new mosquito net. The cleanliness in the bathroom there was not 100% ig, but nevertheless alright. There are a total of 3 pools in the hotel. We were mostly on the Maridadi pool. There, there are no animation and ... it is also quiet. To a nice place to get, you have the loungers but the best before breakfast reserve ☺ if you from the monkeys feel disturbed, is clearly in the wrong country. The include here just to the hotel furniture and it is always funny you watching. The all-inclusive offer is really great. You can water bottles at any time at the pool or in the room with you. The selection at the breakfast/lunch and dinner buffet is really very big. Even if you definitely not always want to try everything, there is really something for everyone edible. Highly recommend is the freshly prepared garlic bread. There was regular theme evenings, the dining room is every day newly restocked. Here is the staff really large trouble. The waiters are not always the fastest, just for breakfast. From time to time you also the impression a mass during dinner, but that is now times in such a way in a large hotel. The beach is exceptionally beautiful! The beach boys are half as bad as everybody writes. You can either on a conversation admit or you just ignore them, then you will also left alone. We were previously on a 3 day safari what i really would recommend to anyone! We booked but over dm tours, not about the hotel direct. For a beach vacation in paradise a very recommendable hotel! Gladly again at any time! read more

The baobab beach resort actually consists of three hotels, the baobab, as well as the Maridadi and the coal coal. All the guests can all facilities without restrictions on use. The hotel is not only according to our opinion (the locals say this) by far the best all-inclusive hotel on the whole of the south coast. There is no alternative. Even if the price slightly higher than at the other all-inclusive hotels, well worth the cost in each case. The level is very high. It starts with professional working waitern in the restaurants, continues on the exemplary cleanliness in the ... whole complex to the extremely different recreational facilities. You can within of the hotel the quiet sandy beach of madidadi as well as on the action-pool of the coal coal or simply relax in the tropical lawn at the baobab relax. Especially worth mentioning we find that over 20-strong team, the own amphitheatre the best shows presented has, the globally we in hotels have ever seen. The above average level of such (for us important) things such as for example the bar a drink in glasses. There was no plastic or paper cups. During dinner at the table of his choice run. There were always clean tablecloths hung up on us. The preparation of food will be carried out under strict hygiene standards (this is no one stomach intestine problems).

    Our room in baobab was a standard room with the usual amenities: clean, convenient and big enough. However the rooms in the coal coal and also in the Maridadi much more spacious and luxurious (for example with jacuzzi).

    The evaluation of the meals is of course very subjective. Nevertheless we say, that we still in no hotel better than in baobab. The fish was in all variations a delight and also the meat was, no matter from which animal and how prepared, tasty and soft! Pasta and delicious soups are further, recommended alternatives. The for breakfast offered sausage can it with everyone from a german butcher's record. More varied than here the kitchen not be.

    The very friendly staff makes a trained (not angelenrten!) Impression. One noticed, that the employees their job really learned had. Speaks english in Kenya anyway everyone.

We have immediately another very good mattress get.

    The level the entertainment is extremely high, the offerings are plentiful. The evening shows are looking for. If 20 entertainers in the amphitheater to the stage and dance, act or aktobatisches can prove, is hardly more to exceed. The number of of the chairs was so large, that one still am places found. A ride on the glass bottom boat or style in a dugout to the offshore reef (maximum 10 €per person) was a real recommendation, also the massages in the beach huts were great. For 10 €you get a whole hour long a very relaxing 'pet massage' (not medical and no sex).

    We had prior to the safari 2 days long a bungalow superior with a view of the sea (although we had booked only standard, but the room on arrival was still not ready and so one has us the upgrade free of charge). In the bungalow it was a little dark and the closet a bit small, however all in all it was okay and the location in the first row to the sea was perfect. The safari we had a great superior room in the Maridadi-area with 2 queen size beds, sitting area, desk, wardrobe with a safe, air conditioning, ceiling fan, refrigerator, huge balcony, large bathroom with huge shower, bidet and toilet and 2 sinks. Only german television program was ZDF, but it was good.

    We found the food delicious and diverse, even kaiserschmarrn or käsespätzle has time, even suckling pig and the like. The gala dinner was even Hummer and oysters. There were always several dishes to choose from, it was always meat and fish grilled and the nudelmann had always efficient to do. A little we missed the kenyan cuisine, the we'd better met. Great ones were also the fresh fruit (the tastiest mangos, which i ate ever) and of course the desserts and the kenyan coffee.

    There are absolutely nothing to complain about. The staff is friendly, they all speak english and some a little german. We have to use of mosquito nets asked, which immediately was taken care of. Also changing money at the front desk is totally uncomplicated, the course in the hotel was excellent and much better, than in the reisebank in Germany. The rooms were cleaned daily, towels on request changed daily. Occasionally we had inheritances of the many monkeys on the balcony, there could have been a little better cleaned, but overall it was ok. Once we the front desk told, that the wifi in the Maridadi-field failed, one for the instruction thanks and immediately measures. Otherwise we had no complaints whatsoever.

    We had our favorite place in the top pool in maridadibereich. Here there are various beach chairs and umbrellas, unfortunately, there were also the annoying towel-reserve and from 8. hours it could happen, that the loungers all 'manned' were. Ultimately it gives however in the entire hotel so a lot of pool chairs, that you always found a shady or sunny place, depending on your preference. The pool in the Maridadi-area was very quiet, without animation. Loudest it was in kolekole area, there were almost continuously music acoustic irradiation and entertainment, also there were the loungers close to each other, it was too rough.

    We had always luck with the ferry, and were in each case in 50 to 60 minutes from Mombasa from in the hotel. The beautiful beach directly in front of the hotel we did not often visited, as the beach boys to was annoying. They try their luck at every opportunity, togetherness was as good as never possible. Also were even jellyfish in the water, what with its nettles unpleasant burns on the skin left. So for a beach and sea lovers would probably a vacation in the dom. Republic convenient. We have a nice spot by the pool searched, the was also great. A taxi you get in in the hotel, the price is negotiation, but in the end acceptable. You can also take a coach of the locals before the hotel stop, we did not make however.

The baobab is the best hotel on Diana beach. It is very spacious, as it from 3 hotels. Even if it was fully booked, the quantity not weight. You can always find a free pool chair and it is pleasantly calm. If you want a little more entertainment, the coal, coal pool. Also the most beautiful (we found). The food is really really delicious and there is wide choice. Something for everyone 100%! We had a room in baobab. It was functional and cleaned daily and with fresh towels mistake. The beach is wonderful even if you at low tide ... not swim, so you can lots of animals see, you probably so not to face would receive. And, yes the boys can nerve. We stayed in 2 where. Failed times alone to 2. the beach alone to go. But without them we would never saw so much and avowedly to get. At this point very greetings andennis and Ali Baba. Dennis we have not forget you a package for you is on its way. Of course is a safari a must! Is fantastic beautifully and unforgettably. The only thing which the only negative was, was our tour guide on site, had at all no desire his job seriously, no information, we had even our plane missed. Horror! Was a nightmare. Therefore here friendly greetings to geli and your husband, we could not more of you adopt, really a shame! But otherwise we can only recommend this hotel, and wish all the the vacation still ahead in baobab much pleasure, it is very romantic. It is also always very nicely set with the food, staff is also always very friendly, only in the bars they were very slow, pools-pools, acutta ma tata read more

We had a standard -bungalow the baobab and were very satisfied. Big bed, seating area, tv, free safe, shower and a seating area on the terrace. More we did not need also, finally, you the room only at night for sleeping. The spaces kole kole and maridadi could without exception be used and so was always a lovely place to relax. The staff are very friendly, always a cheerful jambo on the lips. Our requests for a mosquito net and bungalow-room 1. floor were immediately taken up and taken care of. Great! The 3 main restaurant you can not use ..., we liked the presentation of the caribou the best. The food is varied and tasty, something for everyone. If not, then you should seriously thought about his diet make \u263a the evening entertainment in the amphitheater is super, from mom-Mia, Lion King up to acrobatics shows everything is there. In 2 weeks not once a bit repetitive (this also applies to the theme nights in the restaurants). Already is impressing which together will. The complex is with its many palm trees, pool areas, monkeys and the breathtaking views of the snow-white Diani-beach alone already worth the journey. Small tip still on the edge: the weekly massai -market one can give oneself, price the laughter, a towels with the kenyan flag us for 30 €offered, stayed on 7 €down and even that was actually still too expensive \u263a take a look in the gift shop in the kole kole past, there you will find many beautiful things to suitable prices. A few small drawback there was but nevertheless. The water in the indian ocean was partly very from seaweed infested, so that it beautiful was in the pool to bathe. The beach boys at the beach are especially at the start of the vacation very annoying. So ignore or a friendly hakuna pesa and then turn also slowly. But they are things who the hotel not influence. During our stay had both my girlfriend, as well as i birthday. A small attention, like in other hotels usual, i would have wished there. A couple more words to the guests: the audience was initially very deutschlastig, in the 2. week came many british people, french, east europeans and so on to that. Unfortunately were already times in the morning at 7 o'clock the best squares with towels reserved, although the hotel with its towel cards actually a good possibility created exactly this to prevent. Furthermore there are still idiots, despite the warning and hotelansagen the feeding of monkeys not refrain from. This is not the fun there. Many dont seem to know, that this dangerous disease can. However praise goes to the staff, you have always the monkeys to scare away if you tried to eat \u263a alltogether it was but one great holiday just a pity, that everyone great vacation a end. read more

Very well maintained and large area divided into 3 areas: kole kole (including entertainment), baobab (heart and centre the hotel) and Maridadi area (peacefully located, no animation and the latest in area the entire area). Everyone finds a spot in the sun or shade, even if many tourist's it then but not out early in the morning to reserve chairs. We had in the Maridadi area and these also enjoyed. Honesty and largely written! We had accidentally, when we on safari drove, money in the safe leave; our roomboy has found it, the security notifies and everything was safe! The ... relief was large and here too an extra tip. Large pool area and small hotel-owned beach area, from which you directly at the long white sand beach The beachboys is already a lot written about. They are already pushing but always friendly. It nervt then nevertheless a little and you are afraid in the end then nevertheless more frequently to the beach and into the sea to go. A glass bottom boat trip to the sand bank about a beachboy booked. Beautiful starfish, fish and sea urchins in different colors we could admire. Costs 20 € for 2 people. The evening shows by the entertainers were very professionally done. Alone Lion King was sensational implemented from the costumes to the presentation is the original in almost anything! All staff was very friendly and obliging. Sometimes a bit too clingy, especially towards women, without male escort traveling. A safari is an absolute 'must'! We booked through d. m. Tours (over internet via Germany or in the shopping center Diani Beach in the office). We had about a rating in holidaycheck read and the decision has proved quite correctly. We were 4 in a Jeep and driver and had tsavo west and amboseli booked (3 days). Great lodges, great driver and saw a lot. Is arduous and nothing for rückengeschädigte people, but it is worth it! Kenya is a great country with many contrarieties. Fine, super well-kept and equipped hotels like the baobab beach resort meeting on poverty outside the hotel like for instance in Mombasa. These impressions are hard to put into words. Nonetheless, it seems, that the people here much satisfied and balanced are, than in our country. Even if after contacts after Europa search. Can understand it, if you want to stay on the internet on the unemployment rate in Kenya, population under poverty line 50%! Smart power. The also makes clear, why the people of garments, shoes, shower gels, etc. Very happy. Always with a note provided for whom, as calm things are (gift for. From.). Then there is also no trouble for the staff with the security. We will definitely again after Kenya travel and then a week long safari book. read more
