Expectations met

Reviewed By damawangarig

The place met my expectations in terms of the ambience, large rooms, awesome outdoor facilities and the hospitality right from the guard and Naomi who was at hand to attend to our matters with alot of concern. Having the pool right outside the cottage made it very convenient to supervise the kids swim. They also organised a chef who is well versed with modern cooking and we enjoyed the delicacies. Moreso they have 2 pools which ensures there is no congestion at any time. I also loved the convenience to the shopping centre just a 100metres away and less than 10 minutes from Ukunda airstrip. The beachfront restaurants are also just in the vicinity across the road, thus made our stay very convenient . Transport options are also easily available. The only issue was availability of a hot shower, the rains had just started so of course it would be viable to avail hot water.

On the beach retreat

Reviewed By rans_web

As I chose the upper scale apartment (penthouse) that has all the benefits, I gave it a 5 star review. Might have been 4 star. Pros :amazing view (upper floors), huge rooms and space. Crazy appliances. All you need for up to six ppl vacation space. The beach access and pool are great, diving area right on the beach, with nice veriaty of dishes (at reasonable cost). Service is good. I am on the fence regarding transportation, as there is limited tuk tuk/ boda boda outside the perimeter. Safety is high. Beach is clean. Cons: the place is clean, but room cleaning is not done unless asked specifically. As usual when you leave the perimeter toward the beach, expect hassle from beach boys and others. And it's a bit pricey. Some tour offers being arranged (ie wasini/shimoni) are better done outside. Not all actual operators are good and price varies.

Best Apartment in Mombasa

Reviewed By fbegum801220

The rooms were clean and spacious. The kitchen was very well equipped. There was fan and AC in the living room and bedroom. The room had 3 balconies with beautiful views. The swimming pool was clean and a good size. Everything was perfect. The neighbourhood wasnt loud but also good for those that wanted to go out for drinks such as to the backpackers next door. Good restaurants nearby, although a shame there wasnt one on location. But honestly I rarely ever give a review but genuinely believe this place deserves it. It was such a lovely place to stay with a baby. There were couples and people having parties in the apartments but the noise level didnt reach our apartment so perfect for those who want a quiet place or for those who need it to be a bit lively.

Horrible place

Reviewed By 832tetianav

It's the worst hotel I have ever been to. It's located in a very dangerous and noisy neighborhood ( we were robbed near this hotel). It is far from everything (ocean, malls, SGR, airport). Many times in a row we would have no electricity. Staff is 'friendly' but not helpful ( for 3 days we've been asking for towel and drinking glass) Breakfast is disgusting, better eat elsewhere. In short, total waste of money. They spoiled our vacation.

Home From Home - Looking Forward to going Back!

Reviewed By zeekaM2015

We have just come back from a wonderful family holiday in Nairobi and part of the reason our trip was so great was down to Mimosa Court. We travelled as a Family party of 6 adults (that inculded grandparents) and two children aged 5 and 3. We booked two apartments and stayed for 17 nights. Mimosa is a well known landmark, next to the Royal National Golf Club, on a very well known major road so was a great choice of place to stay for accessibility. Very close by for any animal experinces as The National park entrance is only about 15-20mins drive from there. There are a couple of malls and plazas a short taxi ride away as well so getting supplies is no problem. You can also order in for take out food and groceries. Security is 24hours and the whole complex is very safe. We started communicating with Victoria and the team well before we travelled to make sure that everything was in order, to sort out paperwork we needed for visas and to arrange an airport shuttle - ( which they provide at a very reasonable price!) As our flight was landing quite late they even offered to do a grocery shop so we had some basic essentials which was above and beyond. Our airport pick up was smooth and without issue as was check in. The apartments were and are well maintained and thoroughly cleaned on a daily basis. Very spacious, with a living room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen which gave us options for looking after ourselves and plenty of room for two excited children to not get under our feet. The apartments were true to all the marketing pictures that we saw before we booked. The main bedrooms all have mosquito nets which we were very grateful for and the fourth bedroom came in handy as a work space. They also have DsTV which was good for the kids and meant that my football loving family members didnt miss out on any crucial matches lol! Free Wifi was a welcome addition. It was patchy at times but that didnt bother us too much. Sound proofing was very good too as we never heard our neighboours unless we were outside the front door. Breakfast was included in our package and what a delight it was! Something we looked forward to every day. You can eat by the pool in the mornings but we chose to order up to our apartment. The light meals offered by the grill kitchen are delicious and we did often end up ordering something for lunch or early dinner - especially for the kids. The kichen currently shuts at 6pm so be aware of that for dinner choices. Mimosa offer a next day laundry service at a very reasonable price which we took advantage of twice during our stay and there was also facilities for hand washing in our apartment. The pool was definitely a bonus and offered welcome relief from the heat as well as daily entertainment for the small ones. Be mindful what time of day you swim as its not heated so later in the cooler hours it can be chilly but that actually made the swim more invigorating lol! There is also a small but well equipped gym which I made use of so again another bonus. The gardens are pretty, well maintained and quite lovely in the late afternoon. For us, one of the BEST things about Mimosa is the dedicated, hard working staff team who do everything with a high level of professionalism and are focused on ensuring their guests are well looked after. Any issues we did have (very minor) were sorted quickly and efficiently. They were super friendly and really made us all feel at home espcially my children who came to know and fall in love with some of the housekeeping and kitchen team. The office team were SO helpful in helping us sort out our sight seeing itinerary and even arranged for me to have some on site beauty treatments at the spa. From a COVID point of view masks were reguarly worn by staff, there was access to sanitizer in all public places and like I said everywhere was cleaned daily. All in all, I can't think of any other place that I would think about staying when I return to Nairobi. It was definitely value for money, our experience was worth every penny we paid. We literaly cant recommend them enough and are really looking forward to staying there again.

Nairobi stay

Reviewed By Connector402193

The location was perfect for what we needed to do. Spacious room, lovely quiet neighborhood and made use of the safe walks nearby away from the busy traffic. Booking was easy and prompt replies. Staffs were helpful for any queries we had – next time I would just pack a small kit for washing up as we made full use of the self-catering opportunity. Also with the new access road from Wayaki Way towards Village Market meant getting to and from was easy.

Bad check out experience

Reviewed By Maps40914481577

I had made a booking for a couple travelling to Nairobi for their first time together and they were excited to stay at the grand gables. The checkin was smooth and overall experience was great. The issues started at checkout as the lady at the reception hit my friends with a surprise bill of 38 dollars for late checkout. No mention had been made since check in of any checkout time of late checkout fee if one is to checkout past that time. The lady was rude and unwilling to listen even holding the gate closed insisting we pay. The mistake coming from the hotel and whoever handled check in, they eventually accepted and let us out. There needs to be better customer service and clear communication and most of all a certain level of decorum when talking to a client.
