Urgent: changes needed A wonderful hotel that needs make important changes to keep its reputation and 4* rating. We have stayed at this hotel for many years and enjoyed its fabulous position, great ambience, excellent restaurant and delightful staff. However, there have been recent changes under new management that need addressing Over the busy holiday period non-residents were allowed to pour in from the beach having reserved pool side beds for the day. 20 or more beds crammed together around the main pool available for a few dollars in preference to hotel residents who can only find beds around the family pool where small numbers of beds are available. If this is allowed to continue Kobe will become an overstretched beach club rather than a 4* hotel . The second change results from new restaurant management. The food this year did not live up to its reputation as one of the best restaurants on the beach. Missing items from the menu, frequent overcooked food, a much inferior wine list- only a single white available by the glass- and if you don’t like South African chardonnay you have a problem. Where were all the splendid Italian wines previously available. Lastly, no interaction of the restaurant manager with the guests, which was previously a major feature, and little supervision of the restaurant staff. This was until recently a superb hotel as confirmed by the many positive views reported on Trip Advisor. However, times have changed and the these new issues need to be resolved if the hotel is to retain its 4* status.

Ormai siamo di casa a Watamu, e questa volta abbiamo considerato tutte le opzioni. Alla fine abbiamo scelto il Kobe, anche se un po' costoso, perchè la spiaggia di fronte al resort è una delle più belle del mondo e perchè eravamo già venuti a cena con amici ed eravamo rimasti molto soddisfatti. Centrato in pieno l'obbiettivo, una volta vista la camera e conosciuto Chicco, il general manager, la struttura ha superato di gran lunga le nostre aspettative, che vi assicuro erano già alte in partenza. Anche le più "economiche" delle suite sono molto eleganti e confortevoli, ma spendendo un po' di più ce ne sono certe davvero strepitose, e tutto in armonia con l'ambiente circostante. Lo stile della struttura e la scelta dei materiali infatti sono basate sul minimo impatto ambientale e la massima valorizazzione della cultura locale. La minima distanza da Watamu è sufficiente per stare alla larga dagli scocciatori e allo tempo stesso comoda per raggiungere il centro in cinque minuti di tuc-tuc. In realtà però è la gente nei dintorni che viene qui per le maggiori attrazioni del luogo. La lingua di sabbia candida che si allunga nel mare di fronte, meta di tutti i safari blu del posto che possono sostare solo un paio d'ore, voi potete godervela per tutto il giorno mentre tutto il resto del litorale di Watamu durante la bassa marea non è balneabile. Il locale più in voga del momento per gli aperitivi, il Lichthouse, non è a Watamu, ma bensì qui vicino a 800 metri di distanza. Il ristorante N.1 della zona? Indovinate un po', è proprio il Kobe. Molto conosciuto anche da quelli che abitano qui tutto l'anno, il ristorante del Kobe stacca tutti gli alri di parecchie lunghezze, si mangiano prodotti locali con i piedi in sabbia e un servizio cordiale che fa taaaanta differenza. Ottimi anche i cocktail. La cosa che mi è piaciuta di più sono certe critiche lette su TA. E' vero, qui si sta come in Sardegna... solo che siete in un parco marino protetto con le mangrovie del Mida's Creek a due passi, potete nuotarci e abbronzarvi anche a Natale,e da qui è possibile organizzare dei strepitosi safari per lo Tsavo o il Masai Mara. Per essere equo avrei voluto anche far luce sui difetti del resort... ma aimè non ne ho trovato nessuno.... chissà, magari riproverò a cercarli la prossima volta che ci torno. Grazie Kobe per i meravigliosi momenti che mi avete regalato e che porterò a lungo nel mio cuore

Kobe Suite Resort is an excellently managed and very stylish hotel located in the most beautiful stretch of the Watamu coastline. Our family stayed for a wonderful week in which everything was perfect from start to end, including the suites, service, food, drinks, pools and garden. Beatrice and her team gave us a very warm welcome and made us feel at home throughout our stay. Thank you for your great hospitality and for giving our family such a memorable time at Kobe Suite Resort in Watamu.

Loooove this hotel so much! The staff is warm and gracious and the property and beach is gorgeous! Loved walking out to the sand bars when the tide was low and n snorkeling off the coast in the marine park. The food is fantastic and service is plentiful by all. A great pool experience with 2 options. We highly recommend the Kobe Resort in Watamu. A special thank you to all the waiter staff, bartenders, and cooks and Janet and Bernice in the front office! They all worked hard to ensure our total satisfaction! Our stay was amazing.

Ci voleva un po’ di riposo al Kobe Suite Resort di Watamu. Cibo, struttura, cortesia e pulizia al top! Consigliamo @Safari_Lenana_kenya per un safari senza eguali e poi un qualche giorno al Kobe prima di ritornare alla vita di tutti i giorni !
