Lodges in Kilifi County

"Great place to stay in Malindi "

"Pros: Lovely staff, low key laid back (non-intrusive) beach club vibe, good restaurant, great views and good sheltered pool at back. No sight of the curio market and the massed sun beds on the beach in front but slightly to the left of the hotel. Cons: A rock hard mattress (which, when we checked out, they said they would have changed if we'd asked). Room is large but has the colour, charm and minimalist feel of a concrete bunker. No hot water came through the shower, which had to be fixed. Immediately, behind the room (Room 18) - about 3 metres away - there's a fence, the other side of which is an industrial-size washing machine which thunders into action twice before 7.45 a.m. and continues afterwards."

"It was the most fantastic stay , hotel , food and staff we had in many many years . We loved the place , very relaxing and friendly visitors . I will recommend to friends and family . Joyce our waitress , thanks for making us feel like home 😘"

"The hotel is beautiful, has a lovely pool but it is far away in farmer’s field and very difficult to find. Google maps sent me in the wrong direction. There should be signs and clear instructions on how to get here. It’s easy if you take the right road from the main highway. Staff is friendly and helpful. "

"Fantastic holiday! Beautiful location, good food, perfect cleanliness, great animation team!"

"The Lawford was a lovely place to stay in Malindi. The 3 bedroom villa and private pool were amazing. Large upstairs and downstairs lounge areas. Lots of space for everyone. There was a full kitchen with all the pots, pans, utensils etc. Service was great. Staff were delightful. Had fun with pool and table tennis. We would live there, if we could! Our neighbors were a bit loud but management tried to help with the situation. The beach is close but the water was brown and not “inviting.” There is a river just north that drains into the ocean right above the property. We would definitely visit again!"

"Lovely to stay at Hemingways! As beautiful as ever. Staff and facilities first class! "

"It wasn't as clean as i had expected. The room for two had not been prepared for two. We had to walk to the office in the morning asking for soaps and towels. "
