We stayed 3 weeks in the Sun n' Sand hotel in Kikambala and had a wonderful holiday. This hotel is tired in places but on the whole the hotel is lovely. The food is really scrumptious and the choices were just right.

This hotel is in need of the renovations promissed for later in the year, as some of the fabric of the hotel is 'tired', but it is kept very clean. However, the Staff are friendly & helpfull. There were loads of sunloungers & lots of space arround the pools. The grounds have pleanty of shade from palm trees. The food and beverage service was polite and efficient. The food choice varies every day, but for vegetarians would be limited.

Me and my partner visited Sun n Sand in March 2011. After reading some of the reviews on here I have to say I was nervous about what state the hotel would be in. But I shouldn't have been! The hotel is lovely, the rooms are clean and spacious with free air conditioning, a safe, tea and coffee facilities.

On arrival at the hotel you are warmly welcomed by the staff, you are provided with a welcome cool drink and soothing towel. Rooms are clean and the food is first class. Entertainment is suffice for the resort.

We have just returned from the Sun n sand and it was great. We were worried after reading some of the reviews on here but some people just expect more than others. Some areas need some attention but the room was fine for our needs with comfortable beds, kettle, hair-dryer and free safe.

Just got back one of the best holidays we have had . Yes the hotel does need some modernisation but every thing else makes up for that . Staff are great cant do enough for you food is very good plenty of choice. The swimming pools are great cleaned every day while we were there.

Kikambala, is great if you want to relax but is really a small village with 3 resort hotels 500m from each other and NOTHING else to do or see. It is 15-20 minutes drive from the nearest restaurant or nightlife. It is also the most remote of the hotels offered by First Choice.

2011
Very good if you can put up with the hassle of the beach boys .but at the end of the day they are only trying to make a living. suitable for all sorts of people.

It is very safe to wonder around, nice places to eat, didn't go into the town much, but theres a bird park, easy access to safari.

An amazing holiday, the kenyan people made my holiday, from the hotel staff, to the people in kikambala village. To experience africa you must step outside the hotel, drink end eat in the village and talk to the fantastic beach boys.Take a walk through the village and witness the poverty that these people live in; and yet the kindness and generous spirit will last a lifetime in your heart and mind.The safari and lodges are breathtaking.

2008We had to move rooms four times, once when the ceiling caved in in the bathroom but there was no help from the first choice rep who said it was nothing to do with her as it was the hotel's responsibility. We had a few power cuts but although the (noisy) generator cuts in there is not enough supply for the air conditioning.

2008 Check in was long as rooms were not ready for arrival. Changed rooms three times as were not very clean. Food was excellent, with so much choice in main buffet, chinese good, but have to give special mention to the Outdoor Ranch BBQ, which was superb. Staff at hotel very friendly, especially our waitress who kept our table every night and treated us as a long lost friend. Entertainment was varied, and animation team worked hard. Safari was suberb and well worth the four hour road trip.

2008 I find it difficult to recommend this hotel or the resort location on any level. The location is far from anywhere and a taxi ride costs a fortune for some strange reason leaving a feeling of being trapped in the resort.

2007 Kikambala can be a little out of the way for some people, but if you go to hotel with relaxation in mind, you will get it. Hotel needs a push at times to get things done, repairs etc, but see reception and it will be done. Generally the place scores very very highly for me. I personally have been going to this Hotel for 26 years.
