The service and holiday arrangements you made for us went like clockwork. Absolutely perfect thank you. I thought the Gazi Retreat was fabulous, and we were well looked after by Stephanie and Roland, and felt well rested and relaxed when we left. Food and accommodation were excellent.

We feel like part of the family as we take our leave! Time has flown by in a haze of lazy days and we have felt totally spoilt.
Thank you for your attentive service and we really feel so well looked after and will probably regret the weight we have gained with all the good food. p.s. Advice to future guests empty your plates or Steph will want to know why:)

Thanks to Steph and Roland and all the staff at Gazi Bay, especially Mulei who always had a smile. We have had a fantastice time relaxing by the pool, walking to the sand banks, and just chilling. Our wedding was exactly what we wanted and you made it possible and very special. We hope to come back to celebrate our anniversary!

Beautiful Location, welcoming hosts, fantastic food, and the staff's attentiveness to our every need for a perfect holiday. We enjoyed the mangrove trips, the walk to the boardwalk and village, the romance on the sandbank and the huge birdlife. We commend Steph and Roland for supporting the local village through their venture. We will recommend Gazi to everyone we know and we will be back!

We are not usually short of words as the people who became our friends who have before us written pages and pages will all tell you the same thing and their experience of their holiday at Gazi! The fact that under the influence of you Steph and Roland, you made us feel at ease with you and at home, the shoes off, get your own beers from the fridge. thank you for making us feel at home and realize "there is more to life" by being kind and genuine, guys like you will always make the world a better place. Sorry the "FLY" did not work better but will come back and try the fishing again!
Hope to see you again and lots of Love.

We cant believe it is time for us to already go home:( The days have passed in a blur, it must be the great ambiance, Fresh cooked great food, great activities, sleeping, eating good food, sunbathing around the exotic pool, watching the birdlife and the Gin and Tonics. Seriously we have had the best holiday ever. Steph you could have not been more hospitable. The food has been the best in Kenya. Gazi is certainly a piece of paradise and can't wait to return. Thank you for everything and keep in touch.

Stephanie,Roland,Mikhail and all at Gazi.
Thank you all for making our wedding and honeymoon better than we could have wished for. Everyone at gazi has been extremely kind and attentive and made gazi retreat an unbelievable experience. From the morning messages of flowers each day to the kindness, exotic cocktails, and the sumptuos seafood and could not do more. Every minute day and night has been an amazing experience. The one night at your hidden Gem sable treehouse and sleeping under the stars and above the elephants can be bettered. From the full moon, the walks to the sand banks, the snorkelling and the magical evenings. Thank you Steph for Gazi!
