DIAMOND HAVEN in MALINDI

r stay at this villa in Kenya was truly unforgettable. From the very first moment, it felt like stepping into a beautifully designed and peaceful retreat. Every detail has been carefully thought out, creating a stylish and harmonious atmosphere throughout the entire property. The apartment is extremely comfortable and well-organized. The layout is perfect for relaxing and enjoying every part of the space — whether by the stunning pool, on the sunbeds, or in the private beach area. The beach zone deserves special mention: it is calm, secure, and absolutely breathtaking. A special thank you to Emma, the house assistant, who made our stay even more enjoyable. She is kind, attentive, and very professional. Her care added a personal touch that made us feel truly welcome. Everything exceeded our expectations. This is not just a place to stay — it’s a perfect escape where comfort, beauty, and attention to detail come together. A heartfelt thank you to Tracy for her care, attention, and for making our wedding anniversary so special and perfectly organized. We would absolutely love to return and highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for an exceptional stay.

Location on the beachfront and by the pool. Emma the house keeper was great, made all our meals since very limited options for restaurants within walking distance.

In mid Jan the vibe was like an Italian retirement community. Many older Italians staying/owning properties on the estate who were quite insular. The property needs some renovations such as a lick of paint, some of the furniture falling apart. Beds/mattresses are too hard. Sound of the pump house next door was irritating.

Huoneisto oli mahtavalla paikalla: uima-altaan läheisyydessä ja näkymä rantaan. Paikalla oli hiljaista, rauhallista ja turvallista. Henkilökunta ja erityisesti housekeeper Emma oli erittäin avuliasta ja ystävällistä. Molemmissa makuuhuoneissa oli tehokkaat ilmastointilaiteet.

Huoneistoa oli vaikea löytää.

Exactly like on the photos, spacious, comfortable, good location footsteps from the pool and the beach. Guarded private beach, well tended surroundings in a quiet, calm and peaceful compound. Great host!!

Nothing really, appliances are a bit worn and the whole place could use a renovation.

The location, architecture and amenities exceeded expectations

For some reason the beach guard kept asking me to move from loungers because “other guests preferred those spots”- even when I get there first.

I loved Emma! She was so efficient and her food was delicious. The amenities were adequate but the AC could use some upgrading. Overall, an amazing time was had! Tracy is the best in ensuring that all questions are answered aptly. I'd definitely go back! 😊

AC wasn't working but there were fans.
