    dated room

    The location was fantastic, just steps away from the

    Beach and close to vibrant nightlife spots. The staff were professional and friendly, especially when they helped us during a key issue. the room felt dated and needed some attention.

    ocean view
    buffet breakfast

    Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.

    The ocean view from my room was breathtaking, creating a serene backdrop for my stay. I indulged in delicious buffet breakfasts that left me craving for more, especially those flavorful mahamris! The three pristine pools were an absolute delight, providing the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the sun.

    Totally recommend! 🌊✨

    fine location
    clean room
    elusive hot water

    The location is fine with beautiful grounds. My room was clean and had all I needed, and the beach view was lovely.

    Hot water was as elusive as a unicorn! The dining experience? More like a scavenger hunt for good food!

    outdated room

    During my stay at Reef Hotel, I appreciated the stunning gardens and the impressive pool area tailored for families. The beach access added to the allure, enhancing the tropical vibe. Despite an outdated room design, the overall atmosphere and staff kindness brought joy to my experience. I'd recommend exploring all the local attractions nearby!

    unwanted birds
    wifi issues

    The three pools at Reef Hotel were a great spot to unwind, especially with the sun shining. I particularly enjoyed the swim-up bar at the Tanga Bar, where I could grab cold drinks without leaving the pool. The buffet breakfast included delicious mahamris and fresh fruit, giving a taste of local flavors. Each night, the entertainment was fun, especially when the Maasai group performed. My room, while a bit dated, had a mini-fridge and a kettle, which was handy for making tea. Cleaning staff kept everything spotless, which I appreciated. the air conditioning had some hiccups. It didn’t always cool effectively, and there were power outages, leaving me sweating at times. The beach access was great, but I encountered some pesky birds during breakfast that took my food unexpectedly. the WiFi connection fluctuated, which could be frustrating at times. The location made it easy to head to nearby shops and other attractions.
