Our stay was absolutely magnificent at the hotel. The rooms were elegantly decorated and offered stunning views of the ocean. The service was immaculate, with attentive staff ensuring our comfort at every moment. The peaceful location right by the beach provided a perfect backdrop for relaxation. On the downside, while there were multiple dining options, the variety could be broader. Overall, a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility!

Mwezi Boutique Resort offers a serene escape with spacious rooms and stunning ocean views. The pool area is pristine and enjoyable, making it a great spot for relaxation. However, the dining experience fell short, with slow service and a generally bland menu, which is disappointing given the region's culinary reputation. Overall, it's a comfortable and tranquil stay with room for improvement in dining options.

Mwezi is an incredible venue with stunning beachfront views that made our wedding unforgettable.

Mwezi Boutique Resort is a wonderful escape right by the ocean with spacious rooms that offer stunning views. The dining options are delightful, especially the seafood dishes, but I found the variety of starters somewhat limited. There are also excellent facilities such as a calming spa and a pool, but some room features, like the shower, could be improved. Overall, it’s a great spot to unwind after a safari, but be prepared for a few minor inconveniences.
