“One of the most fantastic holidays I have ever been...”

Written on: 09/04/2009 by kholland (1 review written)

One of the most fantastic holidays I have ever been on. It was far and above the conventional package holiday. It truely was a holiday of a lifetime. The resort was idiyllic, and staff were superb,. Exceeding all expectations. We had the chef catering for us morning and evening within the confines of our villa. Nothing too much trouble. He was able to cook anything you asked for, not that you would like cottage pie with the excessive heat. It really was one of the most chilled holidays... (read more)

Written on: 20/12/2006 by peteronthepc (1 review written)

Nice Place, Lovely people, Excellent chef - The people there could not do enough to help out. Pamela on reception is a real gem! It's at the end of a really bad road, cockroaches in the kitchen, spent several days in hospital with stomach problems and was not alone from the same resort. Sand flies bite all the time dispite the owners spraying every morning, 60 school children arrived for 10 days,two days before we left thank goodness. Would I go back....no thanks (read more)

Written on: 10/10/2006 by jobo065bay

It is a lovely secluded hotel, with the friendliest staff I have ever experienced. I felt completely relaxed as soon as I arrived. The hotel seems to major on offering the 'personal chef' option, and I can honestly say that it is worth doing to have the choice and flexibility. If you are doing a Safari as well within Kenya, I would highly recommend flying to the Masai Mara - our trek to Tsavo by road was physically draining because of the poor state of the roads. The Shimba hills... (read more)

After a week on Safari, it was so nice just to have a week to relax. That is exactly what Pinewood had to offer. The staff were so friendly and very helpful, and they couldn't do enough for you. Both my boyfriend and I had a fantastic time, and we would definitely recommend to others. (read more)

“We spent our honeymoon in Pinewood Village in April...”

Written on: 19/09/2005 by Fiona Hassett (1 review written)

We spent our honeymoon in Pinewood Village in April 2005 and to be honest we were disappointed overall with the standard of accomodation. Our suite was not clean when we arrived, for example dirty dishes in the sink and the bath had not been wiped down. We did complain and were told that the resort was to close in the next few weeks for renovations. Not an accepable excuse at all. The only positive comment I can make about Pinewood is their staff who are extremely friendly. We did... (read more)

Written on: 03/08/2005 by chelle5867 (1 review written)

My husband and I were married in January and we couldnt have asked for a better place than Pinewood Village. Galu Beach was superb. All staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble for the manager, who even came to visit me in hosptial and gave my husband a lift to and from the hospital - not many hotel managers would do that!! Food wasnt what we expected in Kenya but was still of a high standard - we also opted for a personal chef which is a great idea. The rooms were exactly... (read more)

Written on: 01/08/2005 by cleo78 (1 review written)

My husband and I got married in Pinewood, and we could not have asked for a better location. Everything about our time there, and all the efforts by the staff, that went into our wedding day, were amazing. The food is excellent, staff extremely friendly, location breathtaking, a total chill out. Thankyou Pinewood!!! We will return!!! (read more)

Written on: 02/09/2004 by pippa (2 reviews written)

We chose Pinewood Village as the beach element of our Safari Holiday in 2003. We'd spent 6 days on the dusty roads of Kenya, and flew from the Masai Mara to an airstrip just south of Mombassa. That in itself was brilliant. We waited a fair bit for our transfer minibus, but it was all part of the trip and wasn't really a problem. It was worth the wait, though. If you want to be waited on hand and foot (literally - see below), this is the place for you. Each of the two-bed roomed... (read more)

I don't agree with your comment about Raj Air. I found them unhelpful. I would not recommend anyone to use them as travel agents for any trips.
