My only regret is not taking more photos to preserve the experience. Swahilli House was great, with amazing views, great staff and calming sea and pool. The sounds of the ocean and breeze will bring you to the ultimate state of relaxation. The chef food was amazing and I never managed to stay awake while getting a massage!

We had an incredibly bonding and enjoyable time with our family, creating memories that will last a lifetime. The private beach was absolutely perfect for a family-friendly experience, offering both relaxation and adventure. The serene atmosphere, soft sand, and crystal-clear waters made every moment feel magical. The entire place was simply amazing—a hidden gem unlike anywhere we’ve been before. The tranquility, breathtaking views, and well-maintained surroundings added to the charm, making it the ideal getaway. A special mention to Gilbert, whose warm hospitality, kindness, and accommodating nature made our stay even more delightful. His attentiveness and friendly demeanor ensured we felt at home throughout our visit. We truly appreciate the effort to make our trip comfortable and memorable!

Nous avons passé un séjour inoubliable à Swahili House à Tiwi Beach et tenons à remercier Gilbert, le gérant, pour son accueil chaleureux et attentionné. Il a été aux petits soins tout au long de notre séjour, prodiguant des conseils précieux pour découvrir la région et s’assurant que tout soit parfait pour nous. La maison est tout simplement incroyable, dans un style swahili authentique, avec des espaces très spacieux et d’une propreté impeccable grâce au ménage quotidien. Nous avons adoré la vue imprenable sur l’océan Indien, le calme de la propriété, et la belle piscine qui invite à la détente. La présence d’un gardien ajoute un vrai sentiment de sécurité. La cuisine a été une autre grande réussite : le cuisinier, à disposition, nous a préparé des plats délicieux, notamment des calamars et poissons locaux ultra-frais. Mention spéciale pour les excellents pancakes du matin, accompagnés de noix de coco fraîchement cueillies sur place. Un grand merci à Gilbert et à toute l’équipe pour avoir rendu notre séjour si mémorable. Nous recommandons Swahili House à 100 % et espérons y retourner bientôt ! Ce texte est chaleureux et complet, idéal pour mettre en avant votre expérience et le soin apporté par Gilbert et son équipe

Hidden diamond The Penthouse is a blissful experience and if you need anything Gilbert will ensure your get it. We asked if he could get us snapper and vegetables for dinner and he organised for it to be delivered and grilled for us by an onsite chief. It was delicious 10/10 and we could continue our holiday without worrying about food. Swahili house is everything we were looking for, Diani beach experience but more peacful without the crowds. Thanks Gilbert

Best week ever!!!…I got here and forgot about the rest of the world, literally! I even had a routine..wake up, go to the beach, come for breakfast, dance a little, dip myself in the pool, lunch, dance some more, head to the beach then come for dinner and hang out with the rest of the family. OMG and the staff!, led by Gilbert..God bless you guys, never felt so warm away from home. Hope to be back soon!
