Our Signature Service

At The Residence, personalised service is at the heart of your experience. Each villa comes with its own private chef, waiter, and housekeeping team, ensuring that all your needs are taken care of.

Whether it’s crafting bespoke meals, organising excursions, or simply making sure your stay is as comfortable as possible, our attentive staff are dedicated to delivering the unparalleled level of service synonymous with Almanara.

Rooftop Terrace

Perched atop each villa, the private rooftop terrace is your exclusive escape to soak in the breathtaking beauty of Diani Beach. Designed with an expansive seating area, it provides a serene space to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the warm coastal breeze. As the day draws to a close, the terrace becomes the perfect setting for sundowners, offering unobstructed panoramic views of the nature surrounding you.

Whether you’re sipping on a cocktail as the sun dips below the horizon or stargazing under the night sky, the rooftop terrace promises a truly magical experience.

Swimming Pool & Beach

The villas share a stunning beachfront infinity-edge swimming pool, where you can take in panoramic views of the Indian Ocean. Situated a 5 minute walk from the main hotel, The Residence offers the best of both worlds: a private and serene beachfront setting, with easy access to the full range of Almanara’s luxurious amenities.

The white sands of Diani Beach are just steps away, inviting you to explore the pristine coastline, enjoy water sports, or simply relax in the sun. The pool bar located at the beachfront provides a casual spot to unwind with refreshing drinks and light snacks.

Absolutely perfect!!!!! You can stop looking and book now🙌🏻🩷 Why do I even begin to describe this property ?My husband son and I were fortunate enough to go on safari with Angama and arrived directly from there to have some rest and relaxation at Diani Beach. We were picked up seamlessly at the airport and driven to the villa which is very close. The grounds and boutique hotel are absolutely immaculate and the villas share a common pool, which is shaded and absolutely lovely. But I think the star of the show are the villas! We stayed in Villa number six, these are three bedroom air conditioned villas that are thoughtfully decorated, incredibly tasteful, and truly comfortable. Each villa has a rooftop terrace and a beautiful outdoor terrace for dining. Each villa also has its own private chef and server which I cannot overstate how amazing that is!! Every day Dixon would ask us what we would like for breakfast, lunch and dinner and he more than delivered! The food was incredibly fresh, made with local ingredients, spotlighting the amazing seafood on the coast, and was plated beautifully. Our server, Faith, went above and beyond to make sure that each meal was amazing. The spa is also amazing, some of the best treatments I’ve ever had! Make sure that you utilize it while you are here! The beach is white soft sand that is clean and beautiful and goes on for miles. And the staff have been amazing at organizing things for us to do. My husband played golf nearby. We had two amazing dives nearby, and they have kite surfing next-door. It is absolutely the perfect place to sit back and relax and enjoy the beauty of the Indian ocean. All in all we were completely and thoroughly impressed at the thoughtfulness of the staff and we look forward to returning again. Thank you for such a truly memorable and wonderful stay🩷

Above and beyond in all aspects!! This small boutique resort is amazing and exceeded our expectations! The room was very clean and the service was above and beyond. The beach view is excellent and service at the beach area is likewise excellent! The chef and waiters went out of their way to please us and their skills in preparing the entrees really were awesome! Absolutely a pleasure staying here!!

Beautiful beachfront location but hotel wasn't ready for guests Beautiful setting on the beach, which goes on for miles and miles. Water is clean, with some nice waves. We stayed in a three bedroom villa which was well furnished and spacious. The team (chef, cleaner, waitress) looking after us were very nice, committed, and flexible, after the first day. But the place wasn't ready for us. It had just opened and it didn't have many of the foods ('we can get that for you tomorrow' was the regular response) we wanted on the first few days. At this price level - it is expensive - foods should be available (as they in other hotels in Diani). They were still working on maintenance of Sails restaurant for two days which meant construction noise (e.g. drilling) whilst we were trying to relax on the sun loungers. We weren't told of this work otherwise we wouldn't have come. Also, my wife had a massage which resulted in a back injury, which she is having to get help with back in the UK; the masseuse used far too much pressure. When she mentioned it at the time, and afterwards, she didn't even apologise (yes, the cost was taken off the bill). The place has a nice beachfront location and the villas are beautiful but there was no atmosphere because there were only one or two other guests

Don't miss this one! This hotel resort is superior in every way. We stayed in the boutique hotel part which featured five gorgeous rooms all with a view of the lovely white beach and Indian ocean. The hotel runs on an all inclusive basis which includes almost everything you could think of with an excellent warm smiling staff always willing to serve you. one review gave this hotel one star based on the fact that if you choose to eat in the separate beach restaurant you have to pay as this is not part of the package. This is made very clear to all guests on arrival so it should not be an issue and in no way reflects on the hotel. A lovely exclusive swimming pool is never crowded and there is also an option to sunbathe nearer the beach again in an exclusive area served by the hotel. Room are huge and very comfortable, the food is excellent and provides enough choice for most people. The chef is always willing to adapt the meal to suit your personal preferences. The hotel feels like it is home for a very wealthy family (which it is) rather than a hotel with a 'snooker' room and extensive reading material for most tastes. The room do not have TV in then (why would you want it in such a beautiful place) but there are two separate lounges where there are TV and DVD facilities. A chauffeur service is provided for this wanting to visit the local town and for trips to and from the local airport. Finally a superb masseuse is on site and at extra cost one can have a very relaxing and invigorating massage. Definitely a great hotel fully recommended without any reservations.

Amazing This place is amazing. We stayed in the boutique hotel and the room was huge. The air conditioning in the room worked great the entire time. We stayed in room #3 on the bottom floor of the hotel and I thought I wanted to be on the second floor. I was not disappointed when I realized there really wasn’t a view from the second floor due to the palm trees and we spent almost no time on the patio. The grounds of the hotel are just beautiful and peaceful. We had the full three meals today and they were cooked to perfection. We didn’t order off menu as the chef everyday had really good selections. The lobster and salad were off the charts good as well as the banana toffee ice cream. Yum! The WiFi worked great in the room and even at the lower beach section. We spent many hours on the loungers overlooking the beach. The hotel booked us two excursions and arranged for pick up. Everything was smooth and efficient. We were so glad we booked this hotel for the end of our safari trip as we really needed the peace, calm and relaxation this place provided.

Beautiful Place. My husband and I have just spent 6 days in their boutique hotel ‘Casa Bella’. What a beautiful and serene place to end a safari. With only 5 rooms it was intimate and quiet. We had Suite 1 and it was HUGE, with a very comfortable bed and seriously large bathroom. The views of the ocean from the spacious balcony were straight out of a holiday brochure. The grounds are full of palm trees (it looks like no trees were disturbed in building this resort) and the black and white Colobus monkeys swing by on a regular basis which I loved. We spent our time relaxing by the lovely pool or strolling along the sandy beach. The food was divine. There was a daily menu board that you could choose from, but the chef was happy to offer alternatives if they weren’t to your liking. All the staff were amazing, from the gardeners, security, the pool guys, the drivers, housekeeping. Literally everyone was engaging, smiley and pleasant to talk to. There was always someone on hand and nothing was too much trouble. Exceptional service in paradise. I cried when we had to leave. A very special place and thank you for ending our trip on such a high.
