Fantstic place by a beautiful beach with limited number of other resorts. We had the luxury of staying at the Sunset Villa just by the sea and beautiful sunsets. The Aya Beach team treated us as royals and always with a smile.

The facilities were more than I could have hoped for and the staff top notch. I underestimated how remote and underdeveloped Kazimkazi was- while I felt safe, so many people trying to sell me something made me not want to leave the hotel. (There is no ATM in town!) An unexpected highlight were the Maasai staff! Absolute pleasure having the opportunity to get to know more about that community. I would absolutely recommend and will return. ##### Laurie Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 24 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Aya Beach Stay Aya Beach resort is a really lovely and quiet hotel tucked away in the corner of the beach. It has direct access to the beach and when the tide is up, you can go from the stairs to the ocean and have a swim. The food was really tasty and had good sized portions, they have specials that change daily which is a nice touch. If you fancy changing it up a bit, there is a really amazing local restaurant about 5 minute walk down the beach, called Sunset which serves amazing seafood at a good price. The beach is hard to relax on when the tide is up, but around the pool is full of sand so it gives you the vibe you are sitting on the beach anyway. The one negative, which is not Aya’s fault is the beach is full of beach boys trying to drag you in for a chat to sell you an excursion, which after a while becomes really annoying! You just need to tell them no and ask them to leave you alone. Stay away from a person called Mr Cool, he will not give you a nice experience and will not pay the local people their deserved money if you pay him. Overall, a lovely stay and we would recommend to others if staying in Kizimkazi. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F304477DF1E0E012EDEF5E9704579BB037D25D011724484493801.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julia 5 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities We had an amazing stay. ##### Julia Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurynjanet F. 6 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved the food so much.

Aya Beach is a perfect place for a relaxing getaway. I was only able to stay for 2 nights on a solo trip, but will try and return with family for a longer stay. The room was excellent and well maintained, with a comfortable bed. The shower had good water pressure and warmed very quickly. The service was excellent as well, with friendly and attentive staff at reception, restaurant and bar. I really appreciated the beachfront gym facility and the pool was perfect for cooling off. The stairs down to the beach were very handy as well.
