The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Local Cuisine

I had an very nice experience at the dining facility of Kasa Malindi. The beer-buttered fish with chips was absolutely divine! It was recommended by the assistant manager, Lysa, who had great conversation and made us feel welcomed. The deliciousness of the food was a highlight of our stay.

Charming Villa Accommodations

Our villa, Villa Moringa, was an absolute gem! Designed by the director, it offered fantastic privacy and had all the essence that made our stay nice. The decor was stylish and cozy, making it a perfect retreat after a long day of exploring.

Convenient Parking Facilities

The guest parking facilities at Kasa Malindi were very convenient. I appreciated how hassle-free it was to park my car close to my villa. It made our stay easier as we didn't have to worry about parking far away!

Our experience at this resort was quite mixed. While the location was beautiful and the staff were friendly, the service left much to be desired, especially during our celebratory dinner, where we faced long delays in receiving our food. The accommodations weren't up to par either, with some bathrooms having issues and no hot water. Overall, it’s a lovely place, but the execution needs significant improvement.

This resort is a true hidden gem with a beautiful setup and a commitment to showcasing local culture. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, creating a delightful atmosphere for guests. The private villa experience was outstanding, featuring stunning views and a personal pool. However, with limited outlets in the room and some pesky cats around the dining areas, it's not without its quirks.

5.0/10

Leopard Point Resort is situated in a beautiful location with a great beach view and some very nice villas. However, the service and dining experience were severely lacking, with long wait times for food and inconsistent room conditions. While the resort has potential with its comfortable private spaces, the overall experience felt disappointing in multiple areas, which makes it hard to justify the cost.

Rooms

5.0

Our beach view room did not meet expectations, as it felt like a downgraded space used for storage. The noise levels made it hard to relax and sleep.

Service

5.0

The hospitality varied significantly, with some staff showing genuine care, while overall service efficiency was poor, especially in the dining area. It took an astonishing two hours to serve our meals during a birthday celebration.

Location

The resort is beautifully located right by the beach, providing a sort of sanctuary away from the daily grind, which is definitely a plus.

Dining

5.0

Dining was subpar, with frustratingly slow service and small portion sizes that didn’t live up to the meal atmosphere. It detracted from the beautiful setting of the restaurants.

Facilities

5.0

While the facilities have great potential, such as individual pools for villas, the maintenance and cleanliness issues overshadowed the positives.
