Positive: My stay at Kaya Imani – Kenya Honestly, I don’t even know where to start… 10,000,000/10. An absolutely extraordinary experience. This place is not just a hotel ,it truly feels like home. And that’s exactly what “Kaya” means: home. From the moment I arrived, I felt it. I was traveling alone, but I never felt lonely for a second. I shared dinners with the owners, we had meaningful conversations, and exchanged our cultures with so much respect and warmth. It felt genuine and rare. What truly makes this place special is the people. You don’t feel like they are “staff” or that they work there not at all. It feels like you’re all in the same home, sharing moments together, like a small family. There is something very genuine and warm in the way they connect with you, and that makes the whole experience even more unique. I also spent the beginning of Ramadan there, which made this experience even more special to me. The owner was incredibly thoughtful she adapted the meals to fit my Ramadan routine, respected my religion and my practices, and shared this important moment with me. I will never forget that kindness. The location is perfect, right in front of the beach, with a very peaceful and respectful environment. The food? Absolutely amazing. Every meal was a real pleasure. The room design is just insane beautiful, unique, and full of character. And the massage… just incredible. One of the most relaxing and beautiful experiences I had during my stay. Everything is calm, clean, and authentic. If you truly want to experience the real essence of Kenya, I highly recommend this place. I will definitely come back as soon as possible to relive this experience.

Positive: Beautiful stay at the Kaya Imani paradise. What stood out was the beautiful shared spaces, friendly staff, delicious nutritious food and drinks offerings, and accessibility to the beach.
Negative: Very minor but while the staff were aware of my dietary requirements (vegan), it wasn't always clear they understood what foods I could/couldn't eat and there were no markings to make me aware of what was clear for me to eat.
Summary: A serene, soul-nourishing escape in the heart of Msambweni.

Positive: We stayed here for a little over a week after coming back from a safari, and it was the perfect place to unwind. Lindsay has truly created something very special and unique. Kaya Imani is beautifully located right on the beach, surrounded by shady grounds. There are only a few accommodations, all individually designed and built in traditional architecture with beautiful makuti roofs. Everything feels very authentic — even old boats have been repurposed into furniture. You sleep under a mosquito net and fall asleep to the sounds of nature. Simply magical. The food was freshly prepared every day and always fantastic. Special dietary needs (we are gluten-free) were handled effortlessly. The entire team was incredibly kind and welcoming. If you’re looking for something more individual and charming instead of the standard hotels along Diani Beach, this is the perfect place. Highly recommended — keep up the amazing work!
Negative: -

Positive: What can we say…, paradise on earth!!! This location is definitely something uniquely special! Relaxing and coming totally down from the second you enter Kaya Imani! Wonderful garden with a lot of possibilities to relax, lovingly and tastefully designed rooms and you can feel the love and the respect of the owners, Lindsay and Eirik, towards the culture, the land and its people in every single detail… Incredibly nice, friendly and motivated employees who love to work there which says a lot about the owners…! They understand themselves as part of a big family and really live that. Very very nice, fresh and healthy food, prepared with lots of love and care. A beach where you often are all by yourself with an ocean which is perfect for swimming. Last but not least the best massage ever… Thanks again, Mathilda!!! We traveled and have seen a lot, but this vacation was location- atmosphere and spiritwise definitely the best of our entire life! More is not possible!!! Counting the months until coming back…

Positive: Trust me, this place is everything you need. Everything here is in harmony with nature. The houses, the pool, the meditation circle, everything seems to be integrated into nature and belongs exactly where it is. Eirik's stunning art makes this place even more special. It's the perfect place to relax, meditate, finding peace or just existing. The entire Kaya family is very welcoming and makes sure you have everything you need. The food is excellent and always freshly prepared. They made sure that there was always a gluten-free alternative for me. Even in the mornings, there was delicious, gluten-free, homemade bread. You can tell that Lindsay and Eirik have put so much heart into this place. They create a space to connect with others (if you want to). The vibe is unique. We didn't feel like guests, but rather like part of a community. PS: the dogs are amazing. We wanted to steal one, but it didn’t work 😄
Summary: It's not a hotel you book. It's a piece of paradise that you get to be a part of for a while.
