Great stay. Would love to do it again with better WiFi & less restricted use of the laundry machine

The Taxi Guy Peter was quite helpful and he was On time. The service was great and The Chef - Lucy was the best. The House is quite spacious for a family with two babies/kids and even one more adult. The security guys at the gate were very polite and quite resourceful. Cleanliness is also on point! Its so close to the beach just 5 minutes walk and also quite accessible to the public means. The shopping center is around 5 minutes walk and 2 minutes with a “Tuktuk “. Just perfect in General!

1. The Wifi was very poor and sometimes not even there. Hopefully they can fix it for the next guests. 2. The washing machine was however not allowed to use unless you pay for it. That wasn’t pleasant at all coz when you book the hotel it’s included in the total payment.

The staff made our experience unique

Very spacious, super friendly staff, cook was really good

Beds were a bit uncomfortable, when lying on the pool we coule continuously here the traffic from the busy street in front of the hotel. We were expecting also a direct beachfront as according to the pictures, but you need to walk 5 minutes to be at the beach

Little hidden paradise

It's really a little paradise in Diani. Very close to the beach and the supermarket. The house comes with a private cleaner and a private cook and there are always Massai guards protecting the gate. So it feels really safe. When you go out the TukTuks just stop in front of Marula Park to take you anywhere you like. This house is really close to many nice restaurants and taking a tuktuk would only cost about 200 to 300 Kenyan Shilling (2 dollars US). The beach is beautiful but not really a place to relax on your towel. We took a swim and had nice walks on the beach, but to hang out and relax we preferred our swimming pool with no sellers around. And Marula Park is also really close to Ukunda airstrip (less then 15 minutes drive) which was perfect for our flight back to Nairobi. There were monkeys but not all the time. We enjoyed having them around and they were not annoying at all. So we can really recommend this place to hang out for a few days. tips: -go feed the bush monkeys at stills backpack hostel, only 5 minutes walk from this hotel. Every dag at 1900 PM. -dine at nomad beach bar, very good food and a nice 20 minutes walk on the beach from Marula Park. -take a TukTuk, nice experience and Diani is safe to do so. -we also did the Wasini snorkeling trip and saw a sea turtle and stingrays, really beautiful coral reef. But quite far, first by car 1,5 hrs. Then by boat (also some 1,5 hours) but we thought it was worth it, we also saw dolphins.

Can't think of anything...

Very good

The house is really big and comfortable with very nice terrace. The staff was incredibly friendly and we had an amazing chef Lucy who cooked us traditional and local dishes everyday. There was a walking distance to grocery stores, pharmacy and restaurants. Amazing pool and garden, very private and quiet.

The beach was about 300-400 m away and I think that was the only thing that could be better (closer) but this is really a minor thing as thanks to this distance there is silence and not crowd.

Superb

Beautiful big villa to relax. Cheff as a bonus. Very safe. Great pool and the garden.

You have to pass an abandoned bar to enter the beach. We used Flamboyand hotel to enter the beach - take the right side when walking to the beach. They let you use their facilities if you purchase anything at their cafe.

A clean and quiet oasis

I loved our stay at Marula Park. The staff was extremely friendly and always helpful with a smile. The Manager - Anne - checked on us regularly and made sure we had all we needed. She is a warm, welcoming person who promptly and happily helped us with all we asked for and gave very good tips about Kenia and the culture. Our cook - Celestine - made amazing food for us, including the incredibly indulging (and addictive!) veggie samosas. The kids wanted to eat them every day! After our 2-week stay Celestine admitted that it was her first time in her 10-year work here that she cooked vegetarian food. And you know what? You could’t tell! The food was always fresh, yummy and healthy, but most of all - Kenian. We loved it. The whole place was clean as the staff cleans every day, including the pool. Our house was nicely spacious, with all the amenities you can imagine (AC, fan, mosquito nets, tv, WiFi, coffee machine, microwave, toaster…etc). The huge porch was our fav place to eat meals together - but remember to get a monkey stick to scare out these cunning animals as they can quickly snatch food of your plate :D The water in the pool was clear and clean, nice temp, too. The whole place was super safe and quite, although just by the main road. The many bushes and tropical trees created a sound barrier and a pasture for the many beautiful birds that we could watch as we were chilling by the pool. There were hardly any insects and absolutely zero mosquitoes - which was a nice surprise. A nice 150 m walk to the beach and another 300 m to the nearest shop. Our kids and us loved the closeness of nature and the peace Marula Park offered. We had the pool to ourselves most of the time and could relax all we wanted. The friendly 24/7 Masai guards even scared away the monkeys for us :D Thank you all Marula staff for making our stay a wonderful and unforgettable one!

Marula park review

Good value for a family vacation. The main selling point was the chef...she cooked all our meals and helped plan the menu. So one is able to just relax despite it being a self catering villa. The staff were very friendly and helpful...from watchman, to chef to housekeeper. The house was well furnished with quality and comfortable furniture...just like home The kitchen was fully equipped with cooker &oven, fridge, microwave, coffee machine and all pots, utensils etc... you can prepare any meal. Bathroom had double sink and blow dryer Bathroom had hot water from solar panels and boiler backup. Large outdoor dining table on porch was nice Two swimming pools Location was good...right on road for access, 5min walk to shopping center,5 min walk to beach. Very secure...24h security, able to lock the house when you leave, security alarm

No iron box Monkeys entering house through main door and spoiling food. Please consider glueing mesh screen material on the main metallic grill door like on the windows, so it can be left open. Please inform a day before if pool will be closed for treatment so one can reorganize their activities for the day.

Looking forward to come again

We really enjoyed our holiday. Marula Park is a very beautiful place. As it only has three holiday houses, it is also very calm there. Even though few guests, it has quite a big pool (and even a second, smaller pool)

The monkeys were very fearless and would steal food off the table if you don't pay attention for just a moment... But I guess this is the same at other places around the beach. When we were eating, some staff mostly helped us to scare them away, which was very nice of them.

The privacy, the staff, Lucy was a great cook, and Paulo the guard always had a pleasant smile. Two pools were awesome. Definitely highly recommendable stay.

The monkey thieves, but it's all over Diani not just Marula Park.
