Ocean Beach Resort & Spa

Best place to be.. From food, to the pools and the serene environment, I couldn't get enough of it. Their staff are very polite and extremely professional. It was my first time and I can confidently say I will be visiting again. I would definitely recommend anyone to visit the place.

It feels like a blend of the beach and the desert, with stunning dunes creating a serene vibe. This was a family leisure trip, and I have to say, the rooms were impressive—spacious, spotless, and with bathrooms that passed my ever-picky standards. There was more than enough space to stash away suitcases, leaving the room comfortable to navigate. The gardens? Immaculate and beautifully maintained. Holiday organization was top-notch. They nailed it with themed dinners—absolutely loved that touch! Now, about the food: fresh, fresh, fresh! It’s as if it came straight from the kitchen to the table. A+ for that. Xmas breakfast was a little slow, probably because the staff was stretched thin, but they quickly redeemed themselves with a delicious brunch spread. The staff? Amazing. At first, I thought their warmth and professionalism might be scripted, like they’d just come from a training session. But no, this was genuine. Every staff member we encountered was courteous, attentive, and quick to respond. Whoever is behind their training deserves a medal. Special mention to Rosemary, the reservation manager—she was incredibly patient with my endless questions and made sure everything went smoothly. Oh, and you must visit their spa! It’s an experience on its own—relaxing, rejuvenating, and worth every minute. For golf lovers, don’t forget to pack your clubs! Malindi Golf Club is conveniently adjacent to the hotel. Even if you don’t have your own, they’ve got you covered with clubs available for hire. When we left, we didn’t leave empty-handed but with a bag full of thoughtful gifts—a perfect send-off! It’s been five years since our last family trip, and I’m so glad Ocean Beach did not let us down. What a memorable experience! ✨

The rooms were wonderful in that they were quite spacious, the bathrooms were quite updated and the meeting rooms were adequate. There’s easy access to the beach which is always a great add. However, the food here was a let down, in terms of quality, taste and variety.

The room was spacious and comfortable, and kept very clean. I loved there being 2 pools, with one for serious swimming. The staff were friendly. However, service was quite slow, and at the family pool I felt that the bar staff could have been more proactive at coming round to see if guests wanted anything. I tried for several minutes to get their attention from across the pool and eventually gave up. The food was generally good, although a bit expensive, and more choice of lunchtime snacks would have been nice (such as pizza, samosas). The fries were terrible, soggy and limp, not crispy and triple cooked as promised. The bar also didn't have all the necessary ingredients to make the cocktails on the menu.

Great place with a lovely ambience and friendly staffs. The food was excellent. Rooms were very huge with comfortable bed. The environment is so welcoming with no high atmosphere condition. we had a very awesome moment throughout our stay. I really do appreciate staffs like Rose , Karissa , Masabu , broda and the rest of the team.

The environment is clean and well kept with cool breeze from the ocean.The waiters have excellent customer service especially Festus who served us. The sea food was delicious and well presented. However, there were no varieties of wines.
