I stayed at the Driftwood Beach 23 years ago. People always say one shouldn't go back because it always leads to disappointment. But the Driftwood Beach does not disappoint. Two decades on it is better than ever. It was slightly bigger but not too big; it still has that wonderful feel of a cosy, family run, resort, where the owners... more

Driftwood Beach is a truly amazing place nestled on the Indian Ocean. It is literally on the beach and boasts beautiful rooms which are ideal for family breaks or romantic getaways. The staff are all amazingly friendly and polite and the owners are always on hand to offer friendly advice or just to have a chat. During the course of... more

You may or may not love Malindi, but it is very hard not to be enamored by the Driftwood. We were booked in for five days by family members living in Nairobi, and could not be more grateful for their choice. The location on the beach is superb, most particularly if you are interested in changing seascapes and an amazing... more

The Driftwood Club has been known by Kenyans for years, as one of the best places to stay on the coast. I recently stayed there after a gap of 23 years and it was lovely! The hotel is small, simple and unpretentious. It is a collection of small cottages (air-conditioned) set amongst rustling coconut palms with a restaurant and a... more

We had the most wonderful holiday at the Driftwood. The staff are outstanding and nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are simple but spotlessly clean and air conditioned, the view from ours was just beautiful, looking out to sea. The food was outstanding, fresh lobster/crab etc. In fact we did go out for a meal in town one night... more

After visiting Sarova whitesands in Mombasa the previous year we were looking forward to a similar experience in Malindi. Unfortunately due to so many things it did not turn out to be as... more
