Going back to Funzi Keys is like going home! As soon as your feet touch the jetty, you're engulfed in the particular aura of this charming island. Nothing is too much in order to make the guests feel at home. Correction - there are no guests on Funzi - only friends and family. I've already commented on the huge rooms,... More

Charming hotel, good food, very warm and friendly staff, but disappointed by our room which was fairly new and a class less comfortable than others. Make sure to ask for the huge and beautiful rooms which have beach view and then you cant go wrong. There's a very nice pool area but beach worshippers will be disappointed as not quite... More

We spent 5 nights at Funzi Keys in April 2012 and had a fantastic holiday! I would highly recommend this place! The best things about Funzi (hands down) is the incredible sand bar that forms a couple of hundred meters from the shore, and is available for 3 or 4 hours during low tide. The water around the sand bar... More

Thank you very much to all the Torriani family for a wonderful stay I had at Funzi last week. The huge beautiful rooms, the hot tub, the wonderful sun-sets, the surprise champagne in our room made for a great stay. Being on an Island you loose track of time at Funzi which is of course what you want to do... More

I was in Funzi Keys in April in a group of over 30 travel agents from Nairobi and I have this comprehensive comment... The thrilling Funzi Island on the south tip of Kenyan coast is a place of sheer seclusion. Surrounded by thick mangrove forest and assorted natural vegetation, the island enjoys a unique and cooler micro-climate as opposed to... More

I stayed at Funzi Keys as part of a family holiday in December 2011 after we'd had to relocate from another resort further up the Kenyan coast as a result of pirate attacks earlier last year. We had a lovely stay, and particularly enjoyed the spacious bungalows, comfortable bar and charming service. Claudia, Alessandro and Alex made us feel extremely... More
