Coral Kay Resort was lovely and the staff very polite and helpful, but if your not Italian dont go there. Everyone speaks Italian locals and staff. So my days were spent very much on my own until my brother finished work and we could spend time together. Went on amazing Blue Safari which is boats that take you out for... More

I just finished a two night, three day stay at the Coral Key. Let's start with the positive; they have a lovely restaurant called La Pizzeria. Their menu reasonably priced and the food, including the pizza, is excellent and the cappuccino is lovely, particularly if you've been traveling for a while, as I had been. Now for the bad news;...

Communication on the net with the hotel public relations can be... More

Overall a great place to stay. Clean, good buffets and friendly staff. Not sure what all the bad reviews were about. If you don't like the beach boys, the security will shoo them away. The alley next to the resort has many 'shops' where the locals sell souvenirs. They will bargain with you on price. Special thanks to the activity... More

Just returned from Malindi and a stay at the Coral Key Resort. Having read the reviews on this site I was unsure whether I was going to heaven or hell. Much, much closer to heaven. I am really unsure what those reviews that trashed this resort were after, but my family and I had a wonderful stay. The service was... More
