The food at the buffet was mind-blowing, with delicious beef, seafood pasta, and polenta. The staff were super friendly and helpful, always ready to assist. There were plenty of spots to hang out, like the terrace, poolside, bar, and reception area. And the best part was the great value for money, with rates as low as USD 45/night during the low season.

Loved the hot tub, perfect for relaxing after a day of diving. The staff at reception gave me so much advice, I felt like a local expert! And the continental breakfast? Well, let's just say it was continental.
Who needs WiFi in public areas anyway? It's not like I wanted to browse Instagram while sitting on the private beach.

The staff at Aquarius Club were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our family had a great time. They always had a smile on their face and were very helpful with any requests or questions we had. The atmosphere was very welcoming and made us feel right at home.
For dads, it would be great if Aquarius Club had more outdoor activities for children.

The staff were super cool and totally understood our vibe. They hooked us up with all the best spots to party in Watamu and made sure our nights were unforgettable. They even organized exclusive access to a sick beach club and we partied like rockstars all night long. We felt like VIPs the whole time!
The only thing we wished for was a dedicated party area at the hotel. Don't get me wrong, the pool and bar were awesome, but we wanted a place where we could blast our music, dance like crazy, and just let loose with our crew.

We chose this hotel to celebrate a special birthday and wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed. Close to the beach with access to pools and activities, the friendly atmosphere and sense of family amongst guests made our stay even more enjoyable. The staff provided excellent service, going above and beyond to make our celebrations unforgettable. The hotel layout was beautiful and the manager was incredibly helpful, providing insider tips on local attractions, clubs, and restaurants. We can't wait to return for a longer stay next time.
Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

I recently stayed at this luxurious 4-star hotel and I was extremely impressed. The location of this place is simply stunning, right next to the beach in a beautiful themed park that celebrates the Italian culture in Kenya. Being able to wake up and walk a few steps to the beach was absolutely amazing.
I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

I had a great stay at this resort! The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The location was also excellent, close to the beach and attractions like Gede Ruins and Mida Creek. The food at the resort was amazing, with a wide variety of options to choose from.
There were a couple of minor issues during my stay. there was no WiFi in the rooms, which was a bit inconvenient.

The rooms at Aquarius Club are so comfortable! I stayed in a single room and it had air conditioning, which was a huge relief in the hot weather. The tile floor was nice and cool too. I felt refreshed and relaxed the whole time I was there.
Personally, I found the casino at Aquarius Club a bit too loud for my taste. But hey, I know some people love the energy and excitement, so it's just my own opinion.
