From the moment we were met at the airport, the service was exceptional! We were greeted with water in the car, then towels etc on arrival at the hotel. The positive energy from all of the staff made us feel welcome from the first moment…. Nothing was too much trouble! The lovely lady (I think from Cuba , apologies don’t recall the name) she welcomed us so warmly. Angela (our villa host) showed us around the resort and the amenities, she saw we were two friends so immediately offered to change the twin beds to a double in the second bedroom. Angela was informative and knowledgeable about both the resort and the excursions. We met Esther on our first night at the beach party (very chilled not a wild party), we casually mentioned we wanted to try Swahili cuisine. Each day, she ensured we had a Swahili dish to try (which was a lovely surprise!). She also gave us recommendations of local sunset views and things to do. She was friendly, she checked in on us daily and went above and beyond. Esther, your aura and energy with your personalised touch contributed to an amazing stay at Baraza. Food overall was good but not exceptional (except for the swahili food, that was 10/10). They had lots of variety, i.e. each day was a different theme. Evening meals are a combination of buffet and a La carte. All of the staff are extremely warm and friendly. We had lunch on the beachfront, it had a personalised menu and was a lovely experience - we would highly recommend! The resort grounds are beautiful and well maintained, each day the gardeners are out maintaining the gardens. The spa… wow!! The BEST massage we’ve ever had, the body butter was insane, left the skin feel smooth and hydrated. The decor gave a deluxe luxury feel, so beautiful! Staff come to the room twice per day, cleaning in the morning, turn down in the evening setting up the mosquito net and folding back the duvet ready for bed.

The room was fantastic - one of the best rooms we have ever stayed in (certainly rivals the water villa we stayed at in the Maldives). The set course menu was amazing (disappointed not to see a lobster on it, but suspect the menu rotates). Good range of complementary activities included in the rate. Although a room check out time of 10am, we could use the facilities, and eat/drink until we left for our flight (early evening) at no extra charge. Staff were very friendly, particular shout out to Isaak (cocktail bar) and Mtawa (pool bar).

Dreamy property, we were a family of 5 traveling for the Christmas holidays. The property is so well maintained, it is lush and green, beautifully located on the beach. The villas are spaced out and you feel total privacy and peace. Everyone is so caring and nothing is ever too much trouble. Asante Sana to the team at Baraza!

Alexandra

The resort was absolutely gorgeous! Lucas, Angela, Juma, and Zach made it an unforgettable experience for us! My sisters and I had the absolute best time. They were so caring and thoughtful regarding my nephew’s allergies which meant the absolute most to us. Such an amazing and unforgettable experience!!

The food options were absolutely amazing througout our visit. There were always staff ready to assist and serve you too. My family had a great time on the beach relaxing everyday and the really helped with booking additional tours within the city.
