Baobab Beach Resort & Spa, Diani Beach, Kwale

Diani Beach, Kwale

Overview

Diani’s largest house: 323 rooms and a full activity programme. For dealer conferences and family-heavy incentives that need scale on the south coast.

We brief Baobab Beach Resort & Spa as part of a meeting, incentive, conference or executive retreat — not as a consumer hotel checkout. Availability is on request from the Arusha desk, with Nairobi and Mauritius covering hub and island programmes.

Location

Baobab Beach Resort & Spa sits in Diani Beach, Kwale, Diani Beach, Kenya. There is often no street address in the bush — the pin is the property name, the airstrip, or the hotel road in town.

Accommodation details

Rooms and occupancy

About 323 rooms

Occupancy limits

Occupancy follows the inventory above: sharing versus single is the usual swing on a MICE rooming list.

Bed configurations

Doubles, twins and singles as the property actually holds them — we collect the rooming list before we lock the block. We do not invent a suite mix the lodge has not confirmed.

Room sizes

Published square metres are a consumer-hotel spec. We brief the category — tent, suite, villa or room — and any ground-floor or interconnecting need in the annex.

This stay is briefed when the list needs a working room as well as beds. Meeting-room capacity is confirmed on proposal — bush lodges are typically 80–120, not a 400-person plenary.

Services and amenities

What we actually brief for this stay. Paid extras, spa hours and meeting-room AV are confirmed in the proposal — not as a consumer extras menu.

Policies

Check-in and check-out

Hotel hours are confirmed when we contract the block. Typical city and beach houses use afternoon check-in and late-morning check-out; we request early or late as the diary needs it, subject to the hotel.

Cancellation

Cancellation follows the programme contract and the supplier behind this stay — not a one-line website percentage. Peak safari, gorilla lodges and island peak are the least flexible lines. Force majeure and airstrip clauses sit in the annex.

Children

Family rooms and interconnecting stock are requested with the rooming list. Age rules, cots and extra beds are confirmed with the hotel — not assumed from a brochure.

Pets

Not for MICE rooming lists unless the property and the brief both say otherwise. Service animals are a named conversation, not a website toggle.

Payment

Payment is through Serengeti Experience DMC as part of the programme invoice: a confirmation deposit to hold the block, staged supplier payments, and a final payment before arrival. This is not a consumer booking engine and we do not take card payments on this page.

Other terms

Baobab Beach Resort & Spa is contracted subject to availability. Park fees, conservancy fees, gorilla permits and internal air are separate lines unless the proposal says they are included.

Planner notes

We do not publish star ratings or scraped guest reviews. Fit is scale, access and the operations annex — not a 4.8 average that we did not collect.

Diani’s largest house: 323 rooms and a full activity programme. For dealer conferences and family-heavy incentives that need scale on the south coast.

FAQs

How do groups reach Baobab Beach Resort & Spa?

About 4–6 km / 10–15 min from Ukunda Airstrip (UKA) Kenya airports we actually use: Jomo Kenyatta International (NBO) — Main international hub Wilson Airport (WIL) — Safari departures to the Mara, Amboseli, Laikipia and coast — 20–40 minutes from most Nairobi hotels Amboseli Airstrip (ASV) — Scheduled and charter hops from Wilson — typically 45–55 minutes; lodge transfers 20–60 minutes depending on camp Moi International, Mombasa (MBA) — Coastal add-on; less common for our incentive mix than Zanzibar or Seychelles

Can we hold a meeting at Baobab Beach Resort & Spa?

A closed working session can sit here if the rooming list fits. Slide-heavy plenary belongs in Kenya city or beach inventory. Diani’s largest house: 323 rooms and a full activity programme. For dealer conferences and family-heavy incentives that need scale on the south coast.

When should we contract Baobab Beach Resort & Spa?

July–October for Mara migration theatre; January–March and June, November for quieter luxury camps. Amboseli is excellent in the dry months for elephants and mountain views, and still workable in green season when the swamps hold wildlife. Flagship safari and gorilla inventory still wants 12–18 months. City board nights can often be placed in 6–9 months.

Do you publish a nightly rate for Baobab Beach Resort & Spa?

No. Availability and the commercial are on request through Serengeti Experience DMC as part of a meetings, incentive, conference or retreat programme. We will not invent a website price the lodge then contradicts.

Can we book Baobab Beach Resort & Spa without a MICE programme?

This page is for incentive houses, corporate travel buyers and event planners contracting through Serengeti Experience DMC. We confirm the block, the rooming list and the operations annex together.

Do we need yellow fever certificates for Kenya?

Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda and Zanzibar require a yellow fever vaccination certificate upon arrival. We collect it with passports on the rooming list — do not leave it to the airport queue.
