Truth be told there was nothing i enjoyed or liked. Next time they need to treat customers as real billionaires not to just use the name without a proper billionaire treat.

Lorrien

The place is absolutely amazing, very clean. Stephen, Ngala and Joseph are the best. They made us feel like we were home away from home despite it being a business trip.
The seafood meal chef Ngala prepared was better than any 5star restaurant we've dined at.
The breakfast by the pool was great as well.

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.LandrewkKenya - 10Scored 10

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.Martin KinotiAlbania - 10Scored 10

Laid back lifestyle, great beaches, wonderful Italian pizzas. Vasco Da Gama pillar and Portuguese chapel are right there. Museums need updating. Not a huge amount to do in Malindi but if you want to get out and about, Hell's Kitchen in Marafa is worth visiting. It is a mini mini Grand Canyon. Karibuni villas in Mambrui is also nice - clearest sea water you ever saw.Lemmuel J WUnited Kingdom

- From £65 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 26 reviewsFrom the moment I approached, saffron Garden located on one of the quiet streets in Malindi, surrounded by beautiful, stately villas. I knew I was someplace special, the simplicity of reception area overlooking the refreshing swimming pool and massive boabob tree and the famous Hob restaurant where I took my breakfast every morning. The hotel offers excellent Wi-Fi and different activities throughout the day and night. I have stayed at many, four and five star hotels throughout Malindi and I think I found my new favorite.
RichardUnited States - From £87.67 per night9.0Scored 9.0SuperbRated superb· 30 reviewsTruly a little gem of a place tucked away in a little private spot about a 15 or 20 minute walk from the beach. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating and really I cannot recommend Lions enough. It is a fantastic place to spend a few days in Malindi. Has a nice pool and the food is incredible - especially the red snapper and meat dishes. The owners Andrea and Imelda and staff Corazon and Clarice are to be congratulated on a job very well done.
GlennageSerbia - 8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 284 reviewsBeautiful beachside hotel, only 10 minutes from the airport, with a great view of the ocean and great beachside amenities. Enough day beds and security. The hotel and restaurants are aesthetically pleasing with a great view at night. They have enough pools as well to accommodate a lot of people. The food was great, diverse and the staff are amiable. There are motorbikes and tuktuks that are easily accessible just outside the gate as well. 10/10 experience.WairimuKenya
- 8.0Scored 8.0Very goodRated very good· 15 reviewsThink twice before choosing a Resort/Hotel in Malindi. The property is in a great, secluded, yet very safe location. It is surrounded by nature, steps from an International hospital, and many other pleasant characteristics. The breathtaking structure and vast garden makes this guesthouse a one of a kind. The most amazing thing it has been the great hospitality, the love, care and attentions of the host. This is a hidden gem in Malindi. Highly suggested.MassimilianItaly

The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating. There is a shuttle that takes you to Billionaire Resort for the beach access and dinner options. It's less than 5 minutes away. I recommend this place if you prefer a quiet resort with an incredible staff.CatherineUnited States

Built next to a huge Baobab tree that provides shade for a sitting arrangement, it has a lovely Tuscany-Swahili architecture and the pool is just fine. The location is close to shopping and downtown area, though more noisy and smelly (waste burning) as the hotels closer to the beach.JoachimDenmark
