Great staff, but rooms and fixtures are ageing
The staff throughout the hotel are friendly. No less than in the past or what you’d expect. The restaurants remain very good. The gym is very good too, for a hotel. But the room was old and disappointing. The shower flooded every time because the flat surface between the partition and tub allowed water to collect and then drip to the floor instead of the tub. The doorknob on the bathroom door was partially detached. The TV was old and angled upwards. The leather on the office chair was frayed and tatty. The bathroom/bedroom frosted window was loosely installed, which meant that it would rattle if other people on the corridor closed their doors.

Beautiful hotel for a rest after safari with lovely moorish style architecture. Staff were very attentive, great food, lovely uncrowded pool and beach area. Plenty of things to do inside the grounds including kayaking, paddle board, catamarran sailing, squash, tennis, table tennis, pool and darts. It is also adjacent to a marine conservation area where you can snorkel on the reef with tropical fish. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Serena Beach Hotel. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained, there is easy access to the beach, the rooms are big with comfortable beds & big bathrooms, and the staff go above and beyond to meet your expectations. For those on a family vacation there here is a kids club with kids activities (thank you Zawadi & Esther) and evening performances (music, acrobats, etc.). It never felt crowded, it was very serene and relaxing. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you!

A good enough stay
Beautiful grounds. Vast gardens and well maintained. Decent beach front with some activities. This hotel is 50 years old, I googled that and it’s been modernized to still afford a good stay. That’s laudable Where it lets down is the food. Breakfast was decent but dinner was a huge letdown. I’m not going to bore you with details, skip the dinner buffet by all means and if you must, the sea food restaurant was a good option. I will never understood paying for things like water when you have a buffet. What is one supposed to do? Choke on meals.
