Mzima Beach Residences - Diani Beach

Mzima beach is a great option to stay at on Galu beach, especially for families or groups of friends looking to spend time together without being on top of each other. It offers you a beautiful yard, 3 pools, 1 for each building a main house, pool house, condo block a private beach, full gym and sauna along with a beach spa! . The staff was very courteous, professional and the chef cooked some amazing food! The rooms were clean and well designed, the showers had great pressure and the AC worked great ! My only gripe would be the beds were a bit too firm for our liking. We were especially impressed at how well the grounds were kept and how attentive the staff was with not only every detail of the property but also our needs during the stay. I would highly recommend Mzima Beach for your next stay !

HUGE amenity filled resorts are a dime a dozen. BUT if you want a private home experience at Diani Beach with a full time staff included this is the place for you! Three retired couples were thrilled to relax in our lovely, well appointed 3 BR 3 Bath villa complete with private swimming pool post our 2 week African safari. Jacqueline answered my million questions patiently and always with quick response as I planned our visit. The villa is positioned in front of a building with hotel like rooms and it's own pool. We had the privacy of our house, patio, swimming pool and decking, spacious grounds and views to the beach. Charles, the general manager oversaw our stay with his staff of Chefs David and Anthony, room stewards and service staff - James, Jacqueline (not the same one I booked with), Edgar, Felix and Faith. We planned our meals with Chef David, they purchased everything (very reasonable), prepared and served every meal and pampered us our entire stay! Coffee was served early poolside followed by breakfast under the trees close to the beach, lunch and dinner also outside and one night a seafood extravaganza cooked and served grillside. There was an open air gym and tented spa facilities complete with the sound of the sea - FANTASTIC massages. Walks on the beach, a swim in the sea and a boat visit to the coral reef with snorkeling (arranged by Charles) completed our relaxing visit to Diani as we reminisced about our African adventures.

The resort facilities are amazing, comfortable, new and very well located (on the Galu beach side). Excellent hosting services, including the SPA one. We got a nice breakfast on the pool side prepared on our specific request. The Chef is fully available to meet any request. Really recommended for vacation and any relaxing time!

I absolutely loved Mzima Beach. I was a solo traveler at the end of 1) a business trip and then 2) a solo safari. I was looking to end the trip in relaxation. I stumbled across Mzima Beach in other reviews and absolutely lucked out. The facilities are stunning, it’s right on the beach, walking distance to great restaurants and most importantly—the staff was unbelievable. There was an issue with the room I initially checked into. The onsite manager—Charles—was an absolute legend. He upgraded me at no charge to an unbelievable room and was always extremely helpful and friendly, even working his contacts to get me reservations at the last minute. The other employees were so great as well. Young Charles was super friendly and gave me nightlife advice. James was an A+ chef (onsite chef will make you whatever and it’s always great!) and Felix the cleaner was extremely nice and professional. I also got a massage down by the beach in their facility and it was amazing. Bottom line: If you’re looking for a relaxing beach/nature experience, this is for you. Excellent location, excellent service, beautiful facilities. Still very grateful for them.

What a wonderful and relaxing stay at Mzima Beach Resort ! The place is amazing with its beautiful red trees and gardens. We enjoyed very much the large beach with its white and soft sand and the swimming pool. Rooms are spacious and very nicely furnished. Thanks again to the perfect team : Felix, Jacklyne, Teresa the top chef and Charles, the best ever manager who takes such care of his customers !
