Sonrisa Villas, hotel in Diani Beach

Offering beachfront accommodations in Diani Beach, Sonrisa Villas features a swimming pool, bar and BBQ facilities. Guests can relax in the garden or enjoy a drink and some sunshine on the terrace.

Everything was perfect. We felt spoiled and the staff was so caring and nice. Antonia is very helpful and always smiling. The fact that there are only 3 rooms make you feel at home. The room is spacious, well kept and always clean. The kitchen is open from 1030 to 1930 so you can have something to eat anytime you feel like. The food is delicious. The 3 dogs are the entertainment of the place. So funny, loving and very well educated. Sometime you also see monkeys on the trees. If you need to book a tuktuk, I suggest to have it reserved 30 minutes ahead. The lodge is not very close to Diani center and the road is “challenging”, but that is also what make it quiet and special. Definitely recommend if you want to relax. The massages are a plus!

    Diani beach is beautiful Problem is the hustlers and people who search opportunities in this area, these people with lower chances in life and ability to abuse tourists bring this area and experience down unfortunately.

    The setting and layout of the hotel is beautiful.

    The setting and layout of the hotel is beautiful. Lovely pools with a pool bar - very inviting. Easy access to the beach where one can have a lounger to face the sea. Beautiful greenery throughout the hotel. A bonus to have a Spa on the property. Only thing I would recommend is that the ceiling fans and other are turned on when the heat and humidity is very high - it was really hot in the common areas - lounge and dining area. Overall though we had a great, memorable experience and will definitely be back soon!

    Diani Beach is great.

    Diani Beach is great. For some reason the sea water was much saltier than in past years. Still a lot of fun to catch the waves in the evening. Our hotel swimming pool was great, friendly staff, our room, albeit a few minor hiccups, provided comfortable much needed rest, and the menu selections offered a good variety of options.

    There are kitesurfing spots, this is what we all were most interested in and Diani Beach is very good for kitesurfing. There are lots of places to eat along the beach. It was less than 10-minutes-walk to the Diani Beach from the villa.

    Diani is the best place to be….

    Diani is the best place to be…. Try out Leopard beach resort they have good customer care and rooms are the best and worthy for your money. Southern palms is a good one too with a very friendly staff and the best staff in Diani I would say, the front office manager is the best. Swahili beach is good but with arrogant staff.

    Clean beach, nice places to jog, eat, shop and take a walk. Excellent banking amenities and great guides for additional fun places. I really liked out trip to Wasini, enjoying the tides and snorkeling trips to the reef guided by local boat owners.

    I absolutely LOVED and appreciated the team at the resort. They were helpful and kind. They were quick to respond to any questions or concerns, always had a smile on their beautiful faces and just overall great people. We enjoyed great food and drinks: Breakfast, lunch, and dinner with great vibrant taste and flavors. The kids and I loved the water park and pool. Rooms were clean and tidy. Stocked with water and all necessary items needed for a comfortable stay. Will most definitely visit again next time I am In Mombasa.

    This hotel extends on a vast area just facing Diani Beach, which is easily accessible by a 30 second walk from the room. The beach is public, very clean and absolutely stunning. The hotel offers lots of different foods and they're all delicious. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Sometimes the cute monkeys (have never harmed anyone) may visit your room, especially if there's food and an open balcony door ;) The staff is friendly and helpful. All in all it was a great experience and would love to come back.

    Not sure where to start... Diani BeachChalets exceeded every expectation I could have had. It is more beautiful than the photo's can show. We had the sea view chalet which over looked the garden and then the beach and sea. Being able to wake in the morning walk onto the patio and see the sunrise over the indian ocean is a view you would never bore of. The Chalet is basic but well equipped. I have travelled lots with work all over the world and I like basic and raw and this place hit the spot.

    The location of this hotel is superb. Right on Diani beach with beautiful white sands and warm sea! Just on the edge of the town so its nice and quiet but not too far away that it takes too long to get to the shops if you need them. Dinner was a buffet style with lots to chose from. Lunch was either in the restaurant or the beach side café. The room was clean and comfortable with air con and mosquito nets, both very welcome. Pool was lovely and warm with loungers and towels available.

    The hotel has one of the best beach front views and locations in all the beach. The colour of the sand is paper-white, fantastic view. The restaurant lies also next to the sea literally. The restaurant and beach staff was extremely friendly and the food delicious. The room had a super nice balcony overlooking directly into the sea, with occasional monkey visits. Good wifi and good air-conditioning.

    The hotel has a great location on the main road, it is not beach front but it is super close. It looks like an all inclusive but it is not, with a pool in the center of the rooms. Rooms are HUGE with a living room, kitchen and bathroom area. Wifi works but only in the common area, it doesn't really reach the rooms. Staff was super friendly.

    The property was amazing, we didn’t want anything too touristy. This was perfect, clean and well thought out. We wish we could have stayed longer. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The property is further down from Diani beach on Galu beach. So not many guys on the beach trying to sell things.
