We really enjoyed our stay, the property ticked all our requirements. They even assisted us in hiring a Chef who made our life much easier. If we can express an advice, the rooms should at least be equipped with a ceiling fan as stand alone ventilators are not the best solution, especially for people coming from abroad.
Otherwise a beautiful vacation.

We had a lovely 6 nights in Diani Beach staying at Villa Kwako. The house is in a good position for the beach, the staff were extremely hospitable and could not do enough to help us. The swimming pool is kept clean and is a really good size; we used it two or three times every day as it was very hot and humid. We would have used the roof terrace more if it had more comfortable furniture - the staff did find us some garden chairs to use but a sofa and soft seats would have been nice as it is a cool, breezy place to sit and relax. All in all, Villa Kwako is a good place to be in Diani Beach; thank you Evelyn, Eunice, Joseph, Kennedy and Julius for making us feel so welcome.
