Diani Blue is a charmingly small, intimate and exclusive beach lodge, lapped by the waters of the Indian Ocean and features just six spacious Swahili-styled rooms clustered around a central pool and overlooking the silver-white sands of Diani Beach.

Immediately adjacent to all the many amenities of Diani, Diani Blue is accessed via a bridge over a lily pond and stands amid exquisite tropical gardens, which are home to our own troop of Colobus monkeys. Ecologically sensitive, Diani Blue is committed to wilderness preservation, energy conservation, recycling and to ‘giving back’ to and supporting the local community that surrounds it.

Exclusive in concept but relaxed in ambiance, Diani Blue has been designed to echo the spacious elegance of the colonially styled Swahili villa it once was, while guaranteeing all the amenities of the internationally-profiled hotel it has now become.

Diani Blue offers an al fresco dining terrace, a resident’s lounge with private bar, an airy veranda with views over the pool, a dedicated beach health spa and a palm-shaded beach restaurant – The Edge, which looks out over Africa’s most famous bay.
