The hotel needs to improve the communication between the stuff and check that the amenities are always working inside and outside the property. Foods is excellent. The junior suite the rooms needs renew as well as the bathrooms.

Want happy with the fact that water kept being turned off for a very long time. Had to complain and get upset for it to be turned back on. Loved the room and restaurant. Was not happy with the half board option of going to tropical restaurant for lunch. It was not clean and floors everywhere and very dirty on tables. View was great though.

Very disappointed with our experience, I wouldn't classify this as a 4 star hotel its at most a three star. The rooms were quite old and run down and the same with the facilities. The restaurant felt very unclean, we saw crows eating some of the food at breakfast, flies in the butter dishes and were quite disappointed with the quality of the food. We left after one night.

The hotel is very good but needs some revamping, the tiolet fixtures are old and corroded, the rooms are very clean but need to be upgraded. The food choices are very good however the staff really needs some motivation. They are extremely slow and not customer oriented. We waited almost an hour just to get snacks. Overall, the location and setup is very good but the hotels really needs an upgrade for it to be 💎

Beautiful hotel with very helpful and kind, smiley staff who made a huge and much appreciated effort to make our stay as happy as possible. My only criticism was the very slow service in the beach restaurants. Our room was large and airy with lots of space in both the bedrooms and bathrooms but mattress was rather hard!

If you are travellers, families or couples seeking a remote hideaway, with excellent service and a sense of adventure then this is perfect! Staff from Collins (@reception) to Dolla, James, Constance are very welcoming. (Theses are the few namws i remeber) Service is at times taken to the next level. Very attentive and friendly staff who can cater for many requests and make you feel like a friend rather than a guest. Dining options are plentiful, and Saturday evenings they have a bbq, the real treat, though, is the Jambo cake dance;) Location is superb , overlooking the Indian Ocean.

Fantastic views, excellent architecture, excellent food, wonderful and caring service from the restaurant (Timothy, Dolla, Constance, Mariam, Jussy, Raphael, Josephat, Hussein), to the rooms (Michael), to reception (Collins) and, of course, the chefs. We had an infant, and the hotel made him feel like a little King. We will be forever grateful. THANK YOU.

****Hotel directly at the beach. Luxurious and clean rooms, perfect room service, excellent food, variety of dishes, very nice and friendly staff. Great view of beach and ocean, palm trees, sun beds, etc. Awesome water aerobics and gym animations. Offers for other activities and tours are available. We enjoyed a very pleasant 5-day stay as a family of four. What could be improved is the awareness of the waiters (bring another knife for the dessert if there is none left, get the morning coffee quickly as the first thing and not after 5-10 minutes) and the services around the pool (bring soft mattresses for the sun beds, clean the pool also towards afternoon) - especially when there are so few guests that there should be plenty of time to take care of. Also the cappuccino machine was not working during three of our five days :-(

This 5* hotel is located on the beach which we didn't go on as when you went near the "beach boys" would be straight at you. The hotel is Ok but what stands out is the staff - they go above and beyond for you. The food, which is mainly cooked to order, is of good quality and enjoyable - sometimes the menu description wasn't always what you got though. The rooms are large and spacious and were clean - the air con is not the best. The bathroom is large but does not have air con so it was like walking into an oven and was not pleasant. The pool was a good size with a large area for sun beds but with very few beds there. The few beds that are there are very old. The spa pool is lovely with extremely comfy beds and very peaceful but you have to pay extra for that. I don't know where the 5* rating comes from but you have to remember you're in East Africa. If this hotel had a refurb it could be a fantastic place - I will miss it and the lovely people that work here.

The staff at the hotel really made it a fantastic stay! Denise & Timothy in particular (F&B) stood out as going above and beyond all our expectations. From the moment we arrived we were treated very well - room was a great size & had a garden view which was a nice touch. Varied breakfast & dinner. Spaces for guests to roam in and around the hotel is great! Shared facilities with the tropical hotel next door is fab too.

Hi,My family went to Diamonds Dream of Africa from a four day holiday at Voyager Beach Hotel, Mombasa looking forward to our stay at the proclaimed FIVE star hotel. Our experience started with a rude guard at the gate whose first question was what do you want here? (sic. in kiswahili). on being told that we were guests at the hotel and he rudely opened one side of the gate and told me they dont open both sides when i protested! I did manage to squeeze my car through without a scratch but not without having to reverse and realign the vehicle. He directed us to a parking. I had to go back to him and request to be shown where the reception was.But the shock of our lives followed! When we got to the reception, the receptionist (a man) came and asked us how he can assist us. I told him my name and that we had come to check in. He came back again and again asking us for the same information. It is then that we noticed that the guy was absolutely very drunk!! He was even unable to write or fix the tags!!! I requested the other receptionist (a lady) to assist us since the man who was already asleep pretending to be talking on the phone. Waoh!!However the room was clean and excellent, food was tasty though not a five star rating, the rations were being limited! Comparing from the experience at Voyager and this hotel, the hotel was not worthy the money they were charging!! I would not recommend this hotel to any of my friends!!

A pleasant stay at a nice hotel, excellent food and very good service. A bit quiet as there weren't many guests there.
