Great staff , lovely room with ocean view and just steps to a great little beach. The sister hotels are a little drive away, but the dive centre is super!

Incredible stay! The room was lovely and such a quiet and peaceful location, right on the beach. The best part was the staff, they went above and beyond at every opportunity to make our stay as special as possible. We will be back!

We stayed 2 nights in Sunshine Bay Hotel. We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel, and I can't recommend it highly enough! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly attentive and welcoming, ensuring that we felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout our stay. Every request was met with a smile, and they went above and beyond to make our experience seamless. The hotel facilities were top-notch—everything was pristine and designed with comfort in mind. The room was spacious, beautifully appointed, and offered every amenity I could need. The attention to detail in both the public spaces and private rooms truly stood out. Whether it was enjoying a delicious meal at the hotel restaurant, relaxing by the pool, or simply taking in the stunning views from the beach, every aspect of the hotel exceeded our expectations. I left feeling fully relaxed and refreshed and can't wait for my next visit!

Uten tvil den flotteste plassen vi har vært på. Rommet gav følelsen av å bo på safari, stilrent og god komfort Området rundt var frodig og flott. Stranden var hvit og ble avgrenset fra resten av hotellene ved høyvann, slik at det gav en følelse av at vi var alene. Veldig hyggelige ansatte, lokalbefolkning og masaier.

Helt underbart!

Detta boendet kan vi varmt rekommendera! Underbart läge och mycket fin service. Stranden är jättefin och superfint att bada vid högvatten. Poolområdet med tre pooler och också väldigt fint, även där finns det sand. Hotellpersonalen är helt fantastisk och maten är kanon! Det finns inte mycket att göra runtomkring men möjlighet till utflykter är mycket bra. Vi har faktiskt ingenting att klaga på.
