The hotel didn't disappoint! It's very good for Africa. The beach is clean, with a little seaweed, but nothing too bad compared to other hotels. The staff is very polite and helpful. The security is fantastic. We booked full board. The food was good. Chicken, lamb, and beef. Fruit was included. Drinks at lunch and dinner are extra. The WiFi was good. One downside: checkout is at 10:00 AM. The tide was low, so we walked along the reef and watched the marine life. There were lots of monkeys. There were even some colabi living across from the hotel.

Guest UserThe staff are incredibly friendly. My only real complaint is the Wi-Fi. I'm not sure if it was just my room, but the connection was unreliable and slow. The shows were great, the beach was lovely, and the air conditioning was cool. As a Korean, not having a stable internet connection was a significant drawback for me.

Amazing staff and truly exceptional service. Both G. and M. were always present, attentive, and genuinely supportive throughout our stay. They helped with meals and were always available whenever we needed assistance. Their hospitality made a real difference, and we are truly grateful to have met them and spent a few days in what feels like a hidden paradise.
The location is beautiful—a peaceful beachfront property in a quiet, uncrowded area with plenty to do nearby. It’s about a 45-minute drive from Diani Airport, so having a car is highly recommended. Make sure to follow the Tiwi Beach exit rather than relying on the GPS coordinates to reach the property. It is also advisable to buy supplies, including drinking water, before arriving at the facility.
The penthouse itself has incredible potential and offers stunning views, but unfortunately it is not well maintained and still requires significant work. Basic structural improvements are needed, including proper ceiling finishing, fencing, and treatment of the wooden furniture due to visible infestation.
Another issue is that there are many open gaps and spaces around the penthouse structure, which allow insects and even cats to enter the room. This significantly affects comfort and hygiene and should be addressed with proper sealing and screening.
Overall, the staff and location are fantastic, but the penthouse urgently needs proper maintenance and finishing to match the beauty of the setting.

Anonymous UserBeautiful setting, but poor value for money
Nomad has a beautiful tropical environment, and most of the staff were friendly and helpful. However, the hotel itself feels rather dated, while food, drinks, spa treatments and activities are all quite expensive. In my experience, especially the food quality did not really match the prices.
The hotel app was also frustrating, as many activities and dining options were displayed but could not actually be booked through it.
The beach is beautiful but public, with frequent approaches from beach boys, so it feels less private than I expected.
My main disappointment was the front desk. Trip.com incorrectly showed a 12:00 PM check-out instead of the hotel’s 10:00 AM policy. Trip.com later admitted this was their system error, but I still found the way the front desk handled the situation rather unfriendly and dismissive.
Overall, the environment is pleasant and most staff are nice, but at this price point I believe there are better options in Diani with newer facilities, better food and better overall value. For a similar price, I would choose another resort next time.

Joe BenjaminsThe construction uniqueness is a breath of fresh air all on its own.
The individualism of the rooms/cabins essentuates and hightens the level of privacy and relaxation.
Even though it is lined across the coast with various other quality hotels, I still got a sence of a private beach with white sand and breath-taking views.
The private pool and the two private jacuzzies either side of the pool with sun lounges also added an exequisite luxurious touch.
The FOOD...Oh my God! High quality stuff.
Very friendly and welcoming Staff (Elizabeth especially, the waitresses and the bar staff were very kind and accommodating)
The room/cabin facilities and layout was the sort of attention to detail i always notice first everywhere i vacation and LalaGalu was exceptional
The Monkeys, yes, the monkeys - were more or less part of the 'furniture' during day time - Absolute lovely stuff!
TWO-Hotels-in-One (BOXO and Galu) One is a container construction and the other is stand-alone wooden structures - something you won't see anywhere least not everyday.
It was not a 5-Star for me, It was a 10-STAR stay for me.

Igor_S_SI recently stayed at Leopard Beach Resort and Spa and overall had a pleasant experience. The location is absolutely perfect — right on a beautiful beach, offering stunning views and easy access to the water. The resort has many outlets with a nice variety of food, and the staff throughout were very attentive and welcoming.
However, the quality of the room could use improvement. There was some noticeable mold on the walls, and the bathroom is definitely in need of refreshing and renovation.
I also encountered some issues with the restaurant department, which initially left a negative impression. Fortunately, after discussing the situation with the management team, some of the concerns were addressed. I appreciate their responsiveness and hope this feedback will support the resort’s ongoing development and improvements.

Swahili Beach Resort is a great all inclusive resort in Diani Beach in Kenya. It's perfect as a base for staying in the area, with everything you need included. The rooms are spacious, the staff are incredible (and I mean incredible - nothing is too much trouble for them, they are so polite and will really go to great lengths to help you).
The only issue is that if the resort puts you in a room that is different to what you've booked (in our case, we booked a Standard room and we got given a Superior room), it can be difficult for them to find your reservation in their backend systems.
So ensure you go in with printed proof of your reservation and payment, and eventually it will all get sorted.
Otherwise, it's amazing, the Dawa drinks are top notch and the rooms are spacious and inviting.

Unser Aufenthalt war gut, aber einige Sachen müssen verändert werden. Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr schön direkt am Strand, nur leider kann man nicht wirklich an den Strand gehen, weil dort viele Händler bereits lauern und einen wirklich arg belästigen, um möglichst viel Geld zu machen. Die meisten Gäste bleiben deswegen in der Anlage. Der Pool und der Garten sind sehr gepflegt. Unser Zimmer war ruhig und schön gelegen. Es wurde täglich gereinigt und das Essen in den Restaurants war sehr abwechslungsreich und wohl schmeckend. Leider habe ich auch einige Kritikpunkte, der Sportraum ist in einem sehr schlechten und dreckigen Zustand. Ebenso ist der Tennisplatz und das Equipment so stark heruntergekommen, dass es keine Freude macht dort zu spielen. Das Wasser aus dem Wasserhahn ist salzig und hat meine Haut stark geschädigt. Die meisten Mitarbeiter sind sehr nett und machen ihren Job gut, aber manche üben ein bisschen Druck aus, um mehr Trinkgeld zu bekommen. Das empfand ich als störend. Wir haben sehr viel Geld für unseren Aufenthalt bezahlt, da möchte ich erwarten, dass die Anlage absolut in Ordnung ist und die Mitarbeiter mich nicht bedrängen, um mehr Trinkgeld zu erhalten. Es sollte auch mehr durchgegriffen werden, was das füttern der Affen und Bushbabys betrifft. Die Affen sind eine Plage zu den Essenszeiten und werden fleißig von Gästen gefüttert, was die Lage verschlimmert. Mal abgesehen vom Tierwohl, werden die Tiere so immer fordernder, öffnen Taschen, kommen ins Zimmer durch die Fenster, immer auf der Suche nach etwas zu fressen.
