Tucked away in Msambweni is this gem of a hotel. We had wonderful family stay over 2 nights. The staff were all very kind and accommodating who felt like family by the end of the stay. Big thank you to the kitchen staff who surprised my daughter with a cake on her 3rd birthday. She was over the moon! Big thanks to Mercy at reception who was very accommodating and allowed us to stay a few more hours for the kids to swim a little more. The beach is on the doorstep and really clean and quiet. Clean rooms, clean and quiet pools, great food and fast WiFi what is there not to like! Would highly recommend a stay whilst the hotel is still quite new and value for money!
Eggs more readily available for breakfast More activities like table tennis etc would be nice

This is paradise!!! So so beautiful and in a great location. It can accommodate different groups of people; families, groups of friends, honeymoon couples etc. The rooms are clean, big and modern with smart Tvs. There are two well thought out and good sized pools. One in a place with a shade (and a slide) and the other one in the open overlooking the beach. The beach is private and clean. They have two rooftop areas where one can catch the most breathtaking sunset. The food was well prepared and inclusive. The hospitality was excellent. The staff were the cherry on top. The resort is run by Mr Kinoti, a true gentleman, who was constantly on his feet to ensure everything was running seemlessly. The restaurant staff: Juma, Albert, Bakari.... just to mention a few, were so kind and attentive. They went the extra mile to meet our needs always. We couldn't thank them all enough for giving us an unforgettable experience. Ps: The coffee is outstanding!
Absolutely nothing!!!

The entire service team consistently went above and beyond to make our family Christmas experience truly unforgettable. We would love to visit again! A heartfelt thank you to Mr. Duncan and your team for giving us the best Christmas celebration. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the variety of activities planned during our stay, keeping them entertained throughout. The food was exceptional, from breakfast to dinner, with a menu thoughtfully catering to the kids, which was a huge help. Lastly, the view was absolutely breathtaking. We cherished the beach and the stunning sunsets—it was the perfect selection for our holiday.

Beautiful and spacious modern rooms. Very clean and excellent air conditioning. We wanted a quiet place and this was quiet. Staff really wanted to make sure we had a great time. I would return.
Breakfast could have been a bit more simple. There were a lot of savory items. Msambweni is not a tourist town (yet), so bring what you need but it’s easy to get to Diani by Uber or taxi (or motorcycle if you’re daring).

The place is perfect, with the potential to be a world-class tourist destination. It is new. Everything is still fresh.
Staff is also new and therefore need training here and there. They are very lovely, though.

Clean and comfy hotel in city centre. We had a wonderful stay in charming Yu resort. Very clean & lots of space. Wonderful breakfast with a choice for every diet. very kind staff especially *Beka* the waitre filled our hearts. Beka was so attentive to our needs, always checking on us to see if we needed anything, your smile was so welcoming, "you had agreat personality." Thank you for making us feel at home. We would definitely stay there again.
No water heater in the rooms, few games & children's weren't thought about at all, ( no swimming pool for them, no games for them). And swimming pool has stares which kept on bringing cuts on my body. After paying for full board again drinks were paid for differently and very expensive it really hit me down coz you didn't explain it on ur website. The hotel has a shuttle however you don't use it to pick up guests but for personal use then you end up sending us wired taxi drivers very expensive for a short distance...that was mean & no value for money at all.
