Went in September with my daughter. We both had a lovely time. Dont be afraid of the beach boys.We made friends with 2 of them and they took us on a 'beach safari' which was interesting They also took us to their village which was a stark contrast to Bamburai Beach. I found them respectful and kind. Hotel staff are... More

had a fantastic stay, food /service and surroundings were lovely. Overshadowed on day 1 when my parents had £120 taken from their safe. I was sceptical but checked my moneybelt that I'd padlocked in my suitcase and found that I'd been robbed of £60 too. Ended up carrying all of my money and valuables around with me for the next...

Have just returned from this hotel having spent two weeks arriving on the 21st January. It should be pointed out that this hotel is not All Inclusive and has guests on a paying basis. We arrived very tired. I was disappointed to find that I had to pay £23 for a safety deposit box in our room. A deposit, yes,... More

We stayed from the 14th Jan for two weeks, and the hotel seemed pretty full and there was a good bunch of fellow Brits who were all on the same flights and some friendly charity workers that had been there an extra week (see previous review). The hotel is generally nice but the bathrooms in the rooms (that I saw)... More

We stayed in this hotel for 3 weeks whilst working for a charity. The hotel was clean and the staff were fantastic they don't get a lot of money and it is better to tip at the end of the trip rather than every time they do something, as you end up spending loads, just tell the staff and they...

If you go with no expectations you will have a good time. All inclusive was good for a 3 star hotel. Rooms were very basic but kept very clean and were more than acceptable. The pool area does not have quite enough sun beds. Most of the hotel staff work very hard and aim to please. Hotel entertainment is ok... More

After reading the reviews in Tripadvisor we went to Bamburi Beach Hotel which was crowded. We understand this is a Kenyan 3 star hotel and did not expect too much however we were still disappointed. Beware of over optimistic tripadvisor reviews. More
