Immaculate rooms, unforgettable dining experiences and remarkable service made our 5 day visit extremely memorable. The staff at the villa bent over backwards to ensure that we were comfortable and catered for our extensive food demands.

Kalista was really a wonderful place. The villas are so spacious and the staff were very helpful. The kids enjoyed the pool most of the day whilst the mums n dads relaxed around. Lovely atmosphere. Great holiday all in all! :)

We stayed at Villa Kalista in a group of 20 people and had a great time. Service was par excellence and Villas were magnificent. Long streches of beaches - unparralled anywhere. Best property in Diani

Initial reaction on arrival was simply, WOW! as have not seen a property such as this on the Kenyan beach. Views were fantastic and each villa seemed remote with the way they were setup. We had travelled with our family and had... More
