Ngutuni Wildlife Conservancy Tours and Activities

What I liked: the oceanfront room was exactly as advertised; beautiful stepping out to the porch and watching the ocean. The room was decent and comfortable. The water pressure and hot water was great. The size of the property is amazing, multiple pools, cleaned daily. The interior of the hotel, the reception area, all very nice. The hotel also has a waterfall, garden feature. Plenty of beach beds. The afternoon tea was unexpected and great, really helped me to manage my meals. The massage was blissful. I enjoyed a lot of the features of the hotel. What I didn’t like: People complained about the monkeys but my issue was the flies. I don’t get why the hotel wouldn’t have fly catchers and repellants at the restaurant and around food. You’d find flies in the syrup and flies consistently buzzing around food. The internet was just okay but not very stable. The hotel needs a wifi booster. The hotel also isn’t very accommodating with outside food. They won’t warm it for you and there were no microwaves in the room. That wasn’t very cool. It’s a good enough hotel but working on the flies and Internet would be very good. And microwaves in premier rooms like oceanfront rooms would be good.

Pros: The staff was very welcoming. Facility is Well maintained. Would be a great place for honeymooners. Rooms are beautifully done. Their sister hotel next door had more kids at the pool so also family friendly. The food was great, mainly Kenyan inspired. Patrick at the main bar was a great guy with a good attitude. A short taxi ride to several nice clubs. Reasonably priced excursions nearby. Overall, very happy with the hotel. Cons: The shower water pressure was close to none, very low. Parts of shower and bathroom wall was dirty. There was a curio/shops next to hotel with overly aggressive sales people. If you are not a local or from Kenya, beware of them and the prices. If you get the all inclusive, be ready to get bottom of the line drinks. Anything else you pay extra which is pretty much standard in most all inclusive hotels around the world.

Stayed at Sarova Whitesands after very many years. I was extremely happy to have spent time here. The hotel facilities, staff, and food spread are all immaculate.
