IT COULD BE BETTER TO BE A 5 STAR

The hotel needs to improve the communication between the stuff and check that the amenities are always working inside and outside the property. Foods is excellent. The junior suite the rooms needs renew as well as the bathrooms.

Want happy with the fact that water kept being turned off for a very long time. Had to complain and get upset for it to be turned back on. Loved the room and restaurant. Was not happy with the half board option of going to tropical restaurant for lunch. It was not clean and floors everywhere and very dirty on tables. View was great though.

Very disappointed with our experience, I wouldn't classify this as a 4 star hotel its at most a three star. The rooms were quite old and run down and the same with the facilities. The restaurant felt very unclean, we saw crows eating some of the food at breakfast, flies in the butter dishes and were quite disappointed with the quality of the food. We left after one night.

Diamond is getting old

The hotel is very good but needs some revamping, the tiolet fixtures are old and corroded, the rooms are very clean but need to be upgraded. The food choices are very good however the staff really needs some motivation. They are extremely slow and not customer oriented. We waited almost an hour just to get snacks. Overall, the location and setup is very good but the hotels really needs an upgrade for it to be 💎

Beautiful hotel with very helpful and kind, smiley staff who made a huge and much appreciated effort to make our stay as happy as possible. My only criticism was the very slow service in the beach restaurants. Our room was large and airy with lots of space in both the bedrooms and bathrooms but mattress was rather hard!

Amazing!!!

If you are travellers, families or couples seeking a remote hideaway, with excellent service and a sense of adventure then this is perfect! Staff from Collins (@reception) to Dolla, James, Constance are very welcoming. (Theses are the few namws i remeber) Service is at times taken to the next level. Very attentive and friendly staff who can cater for many requests and make you feel like a friend rather than a guest. Dining options are plentiful, and Saturday evenings they have a bbq, the real treat, though, is the Jambo cake dance;) Location is superb , overlooking the Indian Ocean.
