A world of its own

Situated above a coral headland, and overlooking the white sands of Diani Beach, the picturesque Baobab Beach Resort features traditional Arabic and Swahili architecture, providing you with an authentic taste of Africa amid tropical settings. Each area of the hotel has its own pool, bar and restaurant ensuring you will be spoilt for choice when it comes to dining and entertainment options.

During the day take a dip in one of the resort’s three swimming pools, try your hand at archery or enjoy volleyball or tennis amongst other options. If you want to explore the wonders of the ocean, a dive centre can be found at the resort. If relaxation is your aim, soothe aching muscles at the beautiful Afya Bora Spa and wellness centre, a haven of rejuvenation. 

  • Famous Diani Beach location
  • Ancient coastal indigeneous forest surroundings
  • Live shows in amphitheatre
  • Unique style of accommodation

Gosport, United Kingdom

my wife & i stayed here for a chill out time after our safari .29/oct-5/nov ALL the staff from security, reception, bar and resturant, chefs, room attendants, and of course the Jambo team. we came into contact with during our stay were first class ,very helpful and informative, room was very clean food was good and varied, outside areas well maintained. And a beautiful beach the only down side was hardly anyone used it because of being harrassed by the traders every time you went on the beach but that was no fault of the resort.
