Lovely place, ideal with family and kids. Rooms were cleaned, they always asked if we wanted our nets mosquito sprayed. Staff (especially Joffrey and Jeff) were especially very kind and helpful. Also we really appreciated that the owner, Stacey has managed to arrange a last minute transfers from Mombasa Airport and late dinner, when our pre-arranged transfer declined after a flight delay. We arrived super tired and hungry, so that dinner saved lives. :) The general breakfast was nice, portions were enough. The view and closeness of the beach and sea is amazing, we would return to this place at any give moment! High recommended! Thank you!

This is paradise!!! So so beautiful and in a great location. It can accommodate different groups of people; families, groups of friends, honeymoon couples etc. The rooms are clean, big and modern with smart Tvs. There are two well thought out and good sized pools. One in a place with a shade (and a slide) and the other one in the open overlooking the beach. The beach is private and clean. They have two rooftop areas where one can catch the most breathtaking sunset. The food was well prepared and inclusive. The hospitality was excellent. The staff were the cherry on top. The resort is run by Mr Kinoti, a true gentleman, who was constantly on his feet to ensure everything was running seemlessly. The restaurant staff: Juma, Albert, Bakari.... just to mention a few, were so kind and attentive. They went the extra mile to meet our needs always. We couldn't thank them all enough for giving us an unforgettable experience. Ps: The coffee is outstanding!

A beautifully crafted and decorated hotel - on an island in the Indian Ocean (17km south of Diani) - sister hotel Nomad where we previously stayed and we would say it was a more peaceful experience. The room was beautiful and spacious. Excellent variety of food and different restaurants. There’s a lovely gift shop and so many activities - kayaking, mangrove walks, yoga, diving etc or you can just relax on the beach or by one of the three pools. Sunsets on the deck are incredible. Good transfers to and from Diani - depending on the tide you will go across by small boat or tractor! Which was so fun!

Tle location along the coast, far from city centers, but not too far from Diani and Shimon for outdoor activities : beach, swimming in the ocean, diving on coral reef, boat-safari in mangrove, good restaurant for lunch... The monkeys at morning, the garden and the mango trees... And the last, people at Lodge: Rama, Mwanasiti, Aliman and the young boy.

The location was very nice and central. The layout of the Vila was great, as the rooms were spacious, with plenty of comunal spaces. The pool is a great size, and there is an even bigger pool near the beach!!! The walk down to the beach is less than five minutes. The property is gated, making us feel super safe! The rooms were all clean, and the chef made excellent food! I would highly recommend this villa, and felt it was a great value for money!

The villa is simply stunning and very comfortable even for a large group travelling together. It's very safe with a dedicated security guard and offers privacy being located in a closed-off street. Chef William is fantastic and will prepare meals to your specification - make sure to ask for local specialties! Property manager Patience will help you with any arrangements such as transportation so you can just focus on having fun. We felt very well taken care of and would certainly visit again!

Overall, Sawa Sawa Beach House offers a perfect blend of great service, wonderful amenities, and excellent dining.

    Beautiful building right on the beach, very laid back and calm. Not many beach boys and they are not as forward as in other more touristy places. Very nice, helpful and acommodating staff Made special vegetarian food for me. Little paradise. :)

    Quiet location on the beach. Good breakfast with decent choice. Food for lunch and dinner was good, well cooked, tasty and sufficient choice. Excellent pool. Room was basic but clean and sprayed every evening for mosquitos. The owners, John and Nicolette, were very hospitable and the staff were very helpful and pleasant. There's a small local restaurant close by, Hidden Garden, offering a change of venue for dinner. Excellent value for money. Would recommend if you want a quiet and relaxing stay.
