Positive: The Swahili Resort totally surpassed my expectations. It was shear bliss staying here and I can't wait to go back. The staff go out of their way to make everything perfect all the time. It is a very romantic place which is perfect for couples. Their pool area is jaw dropping, there are ten separate infinity type beautiful pools on a tiered system with water running from one to the next. The food here was amazing, a great buffet, or Japanese or Indian Restaurant to choose from. And our room was simply incredible. Every single thing here was perfect and easily the best hotel I've ever stayed at.
Negative: It's not the hotel's fault but the moment you step on the beach from this resort, you'll be hounded by beach boys desperately trying to take money from you, they are persistent and won't leave you alone. There are camel rides on the beach which we did but the poor camels are very badly beaten and scarred by their owners which is really sad.
Summary: 100% Perfection. A Beautiful, Romantic and Amazing Resort

Positive: Its a nice resort for relaxing. Swimming pools are great, restaurants have nice food.
Negative: Its my 4th visit to this resort over the past 8 years. The neglect is visible. Veranda of the room I stayed in is crumbling away, the floors that used to be white is now stained brown, window latches broken, taps at basins corroded, window blinds broken ( I had to fix the two blinds in the room I stayed in just to get it closed) , the shower is halfway blocked and split open on one side for water to just gush out. The outside areas are maintained but not the rooms to the same standard. My room couldnt lock from inside as the lock mechanism was jammed.
Summary: Been there, done it
