I stayed at the Flamboyant with my girlfriend and some friends of hers from the 9th to the 12th of January 2013. The title of my review derives from what the manager, Nancy, said to us upon our arrival - "think of this place as your home from home". All of the staff; Nancy, Sarah, Benson, Geoffrey and Moses were... More

This is one of the best beach spots in Diani with beautiful white sandy beach and awesome views of the ocean. The staff is very friendly and supportive. Annex to Flamboyant is the "out of this world" Ali Baurbour's cave restaurant caved out of a series of natural coral caves for your romantic diners and the Forty Thieves Beach Bar... More

My wife and I (when we lived in Nairboi) would always stay at Flamboyant when we went on holiday to the Coast. I had spent 12 years in Mombasa and this is just heaven! We normally had the whole place to ourselves and the seafood platters the chefs would put together for us were brilliant. Nancy was always freindly and... More

Staff in Kenya hotels are exceptionally helpful and friendly and the staff at the Flamboyant “boutique” hotel in Diani were no exception. The location is beautiful - no doubt about that - but we did not get what the advertisement (found in a magazine on the verandah) promised, i.e. .... 'a bowl of dried fruits and chocolates ... complimentary laundry... More

While we originally baulked at the price of a stay here (and that's before we realized that the price was per person, not per room), by the end of our vacation we all decided that it was well worth it! The property is a large tranquil beachfront house, a welcome departure from the large resorts that dot Diani Beach. The... More

Had the privilege to stay here for 7 nights at the end of January, and it was truly fantastic. It is like staying in someones house (a very beautiful house) and the service was better than any 5 star hotel I have every stayed in. It is located on a beautiful stretch of Diani beach with white sand and amazing... More

We went to Kenya for a 9 day short holiday, 4 days in Masai Mara and 5 days in Flamboyant and it was wonderful!!! for those who hate large hotels full of tourists.... this was absolute heaven. I felt like at my own beautiful villa with all the great service you can imagine. Breakfast served on the terrace, lunches in... More

The place itself is an estate on the ocean. You feel like you are at a rich friend's house. There are restaurants that are fantastic. There is no pressure shopping at stores of all types.....jewellery, Kenyan/African souvenirs that people back home expect you to bring back ( masks, carvings, you name it, and CHEAP!!! ) The beach is IN-CRED-IBLE !...

This was a big holiday for us (my partner and three kids - ages 10, 15, and 16). It had been a very long time since we'd had proper vacation, and we all needed a break. I researched the options in Diani Beach thoroughly and knew what I wanted: sun, water, some action for the kids without intrusion on the... More
