Distant Relatives Ecolodge & Backpackers

Мы всегда любим возвращаться в этот замечательный эко-отель, когда приезжаем в Кению. Номера чистые, еда вкусная, а вид на это место просто выдающийся. Мы настоятельно рекомендуем остановиться там.

Мне понравилось уединение, которое он предлагал тем, кто искал тихую, расслабленную обстановку. Разнообразие предлагаемых блюд. Вся экологическая обстановка поблизости. Дети наслаждались непрерывными сеансами плавания и заведением друзей. Что касается уборки, они должны были убедиться, что это ежедневная рутина с точки зрения смены постельного белья и наволочек, уборки комнат, ванной и туалета, их дезинфекции и, возможно, назначить активного руководителя для выполнения последующих действий, чтобы обеспечить высокие стандарты гигиены.

Все очень удобно, кровати чистые, бассейн чистый, качество за такую ​​цену, очень рекомендую.

Недавно я останавливался в Distant Relatives Eco Lodge в Килифи, и это был поистине незабываемый опыт. Экологичный подход, от красиво оформленных бандас до устойчивых методов, заставил меня почувствовать себя ближе к природе. Атмосфера была невероятно гостеприимной, с дружелюбным персоналом, который делал все возможное, чтобы мое пребывание было комфортным. Расположение, укрытое среди пышной зелени и близко к пляжу, предлагало мирный отдых, при этом оставаясь доступным для местных достопримечательностей. Мне понравилась общая атмосфера, позволяющая легко знакомиться с попутчиками. Я настоятельно рекомендую Distant Relatives всем, кто ищет экологически осознанный и расслабляющий отдых.

If you like hostel/backpackersl vibe, this is the place for you! There are not so many options in Kenya, so Distant Relatives really stands out. You will be surrounded by nature, friendly and helpful staff, animals (monkeys, cats, dogs, insects, birds) and interesting people. When it rains, the roof might be leaking in some rooms, but the administrator resolved the issue quickly and moved us to another room. Communal toilets and shower were always clean and well-maintained. The location is a bit far from the main beach but there are always boda bodas outside the gate, and you can also call a tuktuk. They host different events such as musical jams and night parties. The food in the restaurant is also very delicious! A few suggestions for improvement: 1. Communal kitchen is not very well equiped as there are few cooking items available, especially clean ones if someone who cooked before did not clean after themselves. Maybe additional pots for heating water for tea/coffee and a couple of more frying pans would be good to have. 2. There should be dedicated smoking areas or much more non-smoking areas. It was unfortunate that many people smoked around all the time meanwhile we came to enjoy nature and fresh air - it just did not feel right that in the Ecolodge smoking is allowed almost anywhere. 3. Music sound control. Sometimes I felt like the music in the bar area was a bit too loud for morning hours when I would prefer to relax in silence as the day unfolds, but maybe I could just ask to lower it a bit. Sometimes at night it was a bit noisy too and there was some noise at around 4 am on Sunday coming from the village (must be the church!) Just bring your ear protectors :)

Staying at distant relatives was an absolute treat! We arranged for a car to pick us up from Malindi airport when we booked our stay which was very helpful. The driver was there when we landed and it was a smooth drive. The grounds at DR are beautiful, check in was easy and we were given a tour of the area. It was great to have the option to have food/drink on the premises when we weren't out and about in town. Our room was so nice and cozy (so nice to have options from dorms to private rooms with private bathrooms all at very affordable prices). The pool was such a treat and there's so many areas to hangout outside, almost always right next to outlets, as well! The staff is very kind and helpful and there's always something to do. I would definitely stay here again when I visit Kilifi!!
