“What a magical & special place! We absolutely loved every minute of our stay at Azhari. The setup is breathtaking, and from the moment we arrived to our departure, everything was simply perfect. We were greeted with a cold madafu (fresh coconut juice) and cold towels to refresh ourselves from our safari journey, and we continued throughout our stay to be pampered with delicious fresh meals served on our private veranda with a stunning sea view. It was definitely the best food we were served during our stay in Kenya. The beach view is stunning, and there was always a breeze, which made our afternoon naps in the open bedroom a dream. The beach and Indian Ocean were literally just a few footsteps from our room, and Diani Beach is one of the most beautiful that I have visited. I nearly forgot to mention the incredible outdoor jungle shower—very private and super cool—it was difficult to get my husband out of there. Nicole was a top host—she really looked after us and made sure that we had a fantastic time and everything we needed. I have traveled a lot and have stayed in many luxurious places, but I can certainly say that Azhari topped all of them. We will be back soon.”

“My wife and I spent 7 nights at Azhari. A truly fabulous experience! It’s private, moments away from the Indian Ocean, but within walking distance to shops, bars, and the best restaurants in Diani. The property is outstanding! The gardens are fantastic with their magical 1000-year-old baobab trees—wow! I spent the week admiring the exotic woods, fine craftsmanship, and the thought that has gone into this place—everything was better than excellent. Thanks again to the wonderful team of staff—everyone was so happy and helpful, which is one of the reasons we love Kenya so much. The only problem was that we had to leave Azhari, but we’re already looking forward to coming back again next year.”

“We had an amazing time, and Nicole was a lovely host. Azhari is every bit as beautiful as the pictures—even more so. The location was perfect, just by the beach—it was a little slice of heaven. Nicole was kind enough to share very useful tips about getting around and places to check out. I literally have nothing negative to say about the place or experience. Our only regret is that our stay was too short! We’ll be back soon.”

“Everything about our stay was perfect. Nicole greeted us personally when we arrived. The property was unbelievably beautiful in an ideal location a few steps from the beach and close to restaurants and bars. Breakfast was one of my favorite parts of the stay—everything homemade and delicious. Thank you, Nicol, for the great recommendations!”

“Absolutely amazing. It was like being on my own private island. I didn’t have to worry about a thing because Nicole, Saida, and Bakari took care of all of it. I felt welcomed and treasured. I am already looking to book my next holiday at Azhari. It really delivered in terms of thinking space, relaxation, and reflection. Perfect! Perfect!”

“We stayed at Azhari for our honeymoon, and it was SO PERFECT!! The place is gorgeous with direct access to the beach. Nicole, the owner, is an incredible host—she thinks of every little detail to make your stay even more perfect. All the staff are really friendly and helpful too. I couldn’t have asked for anywhere better for my honeymoon—we liked it so much that we want to come back for our wedding anniversary!!”

“We had the most amazing five days staying at the Azhari Suite—our only regret was not staying for longer! It is an absolute luxury, beautifully designed and very peaceful. The pictures look amazing, but even so, they don’t do it justice! We had our own secluded area as well as direct access to the beach. We had breakfast every morning and dinner on a couple of nights—all delicious! Nicole and Simon were wonderful, and we can’t thank them enough for making us feel welcome and relaxed and for helping us book restaurants, taxis, and anything else we needed. The staff was very friendly and attentive and kept everything very clean and well made up at all times. All-in-all a wonderful stay, and we can’t recommend it enough!!”

“We had a wonderful weekend at Azhari and will definitely plan to return when we are able. The suite is very private and beautifully located with fantastic views of the ocean. It is very tastefully decorated, and every comfort and detail has been thought of—even down to the provision of a wireless speaker so that we could enjoy some music while we were there! The fridge was well stocked with drinks, which were replenished whenever we required them. The staff is very good, and I have to mention Catherine, the cook, in particular! She is a great cook, and we thoroughly enjoyed all our delicious meals. Nicole was very accommodating of all our particular food requests in her menu planning! She is a very attentive host and makes sure that her guests really enjoy their stay. Thank you so much to everyone at Azhari for making our stay perfect!!”
