Ciala is the best resort in Kisumu and the pricing is very affordable. We booked a couple rooms, since we had a big party. The staff was incredibly friendly. Security team was great. The pool was nice. They had a kids area and plenty of area to run around. One neat thing they did was catch your own fish and the staff would cook it for you from a giant fish tank. Think of it like picking a lobster, but with a lake twist. Very easy to recommend. Will gladly book again.

10/10 Exceptional

The property is well maintained and staff very friendly. I didn't like the fact that it took them more than 30 minutes to check us in but this disappointment was more than compensated by their juicy juices. The staff also were willing to go out of their way to carry our small bags, which was a bit vexing. They might have picked this habit from the expectation/attitude of some "waheshimiwa" guests. Breakfast was pretty good. We went in for lunch and it took more than one hour to get it ready. This was perplexing. However, the lunch turned out to be pretty good. Overall, some of us are very conscious of time and I more than mentioned to the receptionist this. It will be nice if the management can take this into account. Everything else was pretty good.

Overall good place to stay…. Salty food.. some broken amenities, typical to Kenya. Most of the staff were excellent. Would recommend - a bit pricey though. It’s not quite there.

Best place to be
Ich war in Ciala für vier Tage, Top-Service, sehr freundlich und hilfsbereites Personal. Ich war krank hatte Durchfall und Erbrechen, sie waren sehr hilfreich, ich bat immer wieder um Wasser im Zimmer, das ich ohne zusätzliche Gebühren bekam. Sie bereiteten eine spezielle Ernährung vor, die mir sehr half. das Personal war immer kompetent. Vielen Dank Ciala Ich werde sicher wiederkommen.
