We stayed at the TBBC last September, as part of our honeymoon. Tired and hot after a week's safari, flight and long drive from Mombassa (approx 2.5 hrs), we arrived to a cool towel and drink and a warm welcome from the reception staff. As it was our honeymoon we asked for an upgrade and got one to one of... More

Having read the recent reviews I would like to say I've been to Turtle Bay 6 times & hope to return later this year. I have to say I've never noticed repeaters getting better treatment, myself included. Could it just be that the staff have got to know repeaters. I have to agree with one review about the beach boys,... More

Just returned from my third visit to Turtle Bay. Does this mean Im a 'Returner' which so many people seem to complain about? ;) I booked this hotel through a guy there called Jack by email, he was very helpful with very quick replies throughout the booking process. We flew to Malindi so we only had the 20minute airport transfer... More

When we arrived we were given a cold drink a cold face towel which we thought was a nice touch. Check in was quick and easy and the manager damian was there to greet us all.... More

We have been to Turtle Bay 3 times and wished we could afford to go more often. The staff are friendly, helpful and obliging. Our room was clean and bright and was checked every day by the staff. We enjoyed the food as there was always a variety. To be honest we cannot say a bad word about Turtle Bay... More

We came to the Turtle bay as part of our wedding/honeymoon. We got married at the Masai mara and came here afterwards for our honeymoon. We were told by the agent that we would be upgraded to a Lamu room on arrival, if available. We had to ask about the "upgrade" which was met with apparent annoyance by the reception... More
