The Zubeida is located at Diani Beach but down a bit from the other hotels. It is quiet and peaceful and has protected access to the beach. The pool is nice, though needing a bit of a facelift, it was clean and quite acceptable. What sets it apart is the service! Maureen and her team are excellent. Anything we needed anything it was right there. The cook did her very best to accommodate our wishes and the cleaning lady was delightful and spotless! We will return...sooner than later!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The villas are beautiful with lovely views of the ocean. The ocean is a short walk from the villa and there is also a lovely pool and small dining area. The bedrooms have air conditioning, which is great! The restaurant has amazing waffles and we really enjoyed the haloumi cheese. The employees were friendly and accomodating to our needs. The manager, Maureen, was helpful with transportation and answering any questions or concerns. My family and I would definitely recommend this property to everyone! The rooms are clean, the food was great, and the views/proximity to the beach were amazing. We had a lovely stay.

Beautiful and serene!
Beautiful and serene! We had the place all to ourselves. Amazing and so relaxing. Loved laying on the king sized outdoor bed and looking over the amazing ocean view (at least the first few cottages have a view - only the villa is right on the beach).Manager is very nice and responsive. Service is nice and with a smile, but be prepared to slow down. Restaurant is small and right on the lovely pool, but very, very basic and quite limited. Wonderful break at the white sandy Galu beach!

Die Lage ist einzigartig und die Menschen dort überaus freundlich. Für den Preis wünschte ich, dass das Essen inklusive ist, aber das muss man leider extra bezahlen.
