Still my favorite vacation spot. Everything is spotlessly clean, the staff is attentive,jovial and warm led by George and James. The food is delicious, fresh and plenty. (compliments to the chef). Breakfast served to order was great, lots of fresh fruits and salads included in breakfast and dinner. Alex does everything to make all guests feel special. The complimentary birthday cake presented by the staff while singing and dancing was the highlight of my holiday. See you again next year😀

    Malindi is currently regarded as the "dead town" but in my opinion, it's the perfect escape from all sorts of pollution- Instantly replaced by the facinating historical landmarks like hell's kitchen & Mambrui in totality, peace & serene, are just some of the healing that Malindi has to offer.

    If you can cook in Malindi, please cook.

    If you can cook in Malindi, please cook. Chefs are also too expensive but if you are up for it, great. The customer service in Malindi is questionable, some restaurants even packing sub food as your take away. Also, the locals especially tour guides try to rip you off compared to other coastal towns, its quite annoying. Make sure you have someone who knows their way around Malindi so that you can be linked up.

    Malindi town is typical of Kenya with a market, supermarket, lots of traders and as a tourist you are well served. It is a quiet safe area but restaurants tend to be quiet at night with few customers.If you want nightlife there are clubs and beach parties til 3am or later .

    Cool laid back town. Action is on the beach.

    Cool laid back town. Action is on the beach. Local foods like fish, calamari, prawns easily gotten-mostly in the evening. Its a 'crime' not to use a motor bike(boda boda) to tour the town on foot! Annoying whistles and hoots from the riders- just avoid eye contact! Malindi town is easy to walk around. Coffee lovers have a huge choice- kahawa tungu( peppered with cinnamon&ginger powder)- on the bench at every turn of road -or- in Italian themed coffee joints by the beach and main streets. Lo Sfizio restaurant- along Lamu road is a great one.- Malaika Restaurant- Buntwani Beach is another.

    Easy town to move around. Not that many pedestrian walkways.

    Easy town to move around. Not that many pedestrian walkways. From my last visit(2023) there is an upgrade though. Need for more coffee places. The beach areas could be more cleaner. For coffee and lovely delicious snacks,go to Malaika restaurant opposite the Buntwani Beach Front. Walking is the healthiest way to move around Malindi,just don't give a visual contact with the boda boda taxis( you will ride unwillingly!) Avoid the Tikka chicken with coloured(yellow) spicing.

    The information on Booking.com about Malindi is an accurate representation of what I found on site. I visited the following places: Galana Shopping Centre Vasco da Gama Pillar Portuguese Chapel Malindi Marine National Park. I occasionally ate out from a wide range of restaurants in the city centre. It was quite easy to move around Malindi and I currently have no experience of places to avoid while in Malindi.

    I like Malindi in general. But the fact that this is set within the same compound as Ocean Beach is the first big plus for me. I travelled alone but still got the group feeling by hanging by the pool area with other tourists. I had dinner on occasion in the hotel, which was quite convenient. Transport is there on demand. The town is literally 5 minutes away for AOBs. And the first floor setting gave me such a beautiful view of the compound. Great for solo and group travels.

    Beautiful rooms, nice and helpful staff, delicious swahili breakfast and a wonderful pool to relax. This was the best accommodation we had in kenya. If you need a tuktuk driver, they will connect you with Abdalla, who will show you around for a good price and tell you a lot about malindi and the surrounding areas. He took us to the Gedi ruins for a half day trip, which was a great experience.
