The bandas are pretty and comfortable. Nice pools. Food was mediocre at best. There was a lack of variety and the quality wasn’t that good.. Staff was okay but some services were lacking e.g no kettle in the rooms, no phone to call room service, and no slippers. I had higher expectations considering the beauty of the island and how much potential it had. ##### Rita ### 8/10 Good #### Susan Oct 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely place for a couple of nights.

Es ist neu renoviert und uns hat das moderne aber gleichzeitig traditionelle sehr sehr gut gefallen! Wir hatten eine kleine HĂŒtte (Bandas) mit herrlichem Blick zur Lagune! Das Sunset Deck war auch nagelneu und es gab einfach nichts schöneres als abends bei Sonnenuntergang dort einen Drink zu genießen! Es gab kaum Moskitos und jeden Abend ein Roomservice, der das Moskitonetz ĂŒber dem Bett ausgeklappt hat. Das Personal war unfassbar freundlich!! Die AktivitĂ€ten sind vielfĂ€ltig und bequem an der Rezeption oder per App buchbar. Hierbei war va die Kajak Tour oder eine Inselumrundung bei Ebbe erwĂ€hnenswert! Wlan war wirklich ganz gut (am besten an der Rezeption, wir hatten es aber auf der gesamten Anlage empfangen können). Das Essen ist sehr gut und europĂ€isch angehaucht. Viel Fisch und Fleisch aber auch Obst (va das FrĂŒhstĂŒck war sehr gesund). Tipp: Barbecue am Pool buchen, da es ein besonderes Highlight war. ##### Theresa ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Apr 11, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Heaven On Earth This trip might have ruined the Kenyan coast for me because I don't know how I'll find anything even remotely close to being as wonderful! The rooms are luxuriously comfortable and the three pools are each lush and pure bliss. The management was personal and friendly and even though I was traveling alone I did not feel lonely as they went out of their way to greet me and remember me by name. Worth every penny: I will be back. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yana Jan 31, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful hotel This is one beautiful place. One of a kind. ##### Yana Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Abby Jan 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you are looking for a beautiful place to visit at the coast and also feel relaxed this is your place. The staff are very friendly, efficient and ready to help and make sure you have a great visit. This is a small Island so there is not much to do, but if you are looking for a place to disconnect for a few days it's perfect. They do over a few activities within the Island and you can also arrange for trips outside the island. The is Amazing food . Fresh fish everyday . They use a generator to power the place so you don't have power during the day. Its turned off about 10am-5pm. Wifi available if needed. Beautiful place. We had a great time. Thank you ##### Abby Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great place. We were pleasantly surprised by the food— great taste and variety. The beach is great during high tide, and there are plenty of swimming pools to keep you busy during low tide. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/02EAE5ED5497FA67F6A233DF4BF481A616F4D4441640187834511.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/24E9C803EBFBBD917DADB669AD240D7E8CD8D54B1640187872828.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Demetris Dec 20, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The property is magical.Great experience.Unfortunately a 2hr return to Mombasa city turned into 6hr traffic jam.I would advise you to leave way before your outgoing flight as you would possibly miss it.The BIG problem is the ferry to cross over.Normally there are 5 ferries crossing but today there were only 2..... Besides this ,everything else was perfect. ##### Demetris Stayed 1 night in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alejandro Dec 8, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities great hotel! ##### Alejandro Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Oct 25, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A true tropical paradise This island is truly a magical place, with its dense vegetation, stunning ever changing beach, the local animal population from monkeys to colorful coral fish. We stayed in a bungalow, and if possible I would recommend it as you get the best out of you stay on this little charming island. The staff was friendly and professional, the food was delicious and with daily catch of the day.

Der Hauptstrand ist sehr schön, aber die Insel ist (wie auch Diani Beach) kein baden Paradies wegen der vorgelagerten (abgestorbenen) Korralenfelsen. Schnorcheln kaum lohnenswert. Sehr starke Gezeiten. Bei Ebbe ist eine sehr schöne und wirklich empfehlenswerte Umrundung der Insel möglich. Bei Flut können Familien mit Kindern auf der Lagunenseite in der NĂ€he des Bootssteges baden!!! Unbedingt eine Banga (Beach oder Lagunenseite) nehmen. Die zwei Wasser Bungalows liegen auf der Lagunenseite und liegen bei Ebbe trocken. Die 3 HotelgebĂ€uden mit Standardzimmern wĂŒrde ich nicht nehmen da in diesem Fall ist der Preis/Leistung deutlich zu schwach. FĂŒr eine Erholung nach einem Safari sehr empfehlenswert. Wir haben jedoch unsere „Erholungsphase“ auf Chale Island und Diani Beach geteilt. ##### Christoph Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Audrey Jul 5, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### If you’re looking for relaxation.

Le personnel est au petit soins, la chambre est grande et moderne (nous Ă©tions dans un bungallow plage) avec une terrasse privative. Nous avons eu du plaisir Ă  utiliser le centre de sports nautiques, lequel Ă©tait inclus dans le tarif de la chambre. La nourriture est correcte, voir mĂȘme en dessus de la moyenne par rapport au pays. Le seul point que nous pouvons critiquer est l'offre "all Inclusive" qui est beaucoup trop chĂšre par rapport au tarif incluant uniquement la demi-pension. Le all Inclusive n'est ainsi pas rentable pour les clients qui consomment normalement. Mais pour le reste, nous recommandons sans hĂ©siter cet Ă©tablissement. ##### Benjamin Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa Jun 13, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### FABULOUS!

I cannot begin to say enough about this resort, island, staff and stay. It's all amazing. The ambiance and atmosphere are just the beginning. The staff are as friends and family. The food is outstanding. Every dish made to spec... in taste and appearance not to mention the vast selection. FYI- I now have 10 lbs to take back off! :o) We stayed a week before going to Zanzibar and immediately realized Zanzibar was a waste and headed back to Chale for another week stay. I can't begin to tell you how much I miss this place since returning to Montana, USA. I hope to be back very soon! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 19, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A one of a kind -amazing place! We liked it so well we extended our stay in Kenya to return for another week. The location, property, food, staff and atmosphere make this place a once in a lifetime experience- well at least until you return again. The beaches and reefs are perfect for exploring, snorkeling etc. The rooms- bungalows are very clean, private and well kept with amazing views. The staff is extremely friendly and I can’t begin to tell you about the quality and assortment of food offered throughout the day. I am so glad to have found Sands of Chale! It clearly is now on my top list of places to stay again future.
