Wedding Venue
We've put together a few accommodation options to suit different budgets and travel styles.
We'd absolutely love for as many of our guests as possible to stay together, it's one of the best parts of a destination wedding!
We have negotiated special rates for our wedding guests.
If you'd prefer something a little different, we've also included a few of our favourite boutique hotels and villas nearby.
Indian Ocean Beach Club (Our Wedding Venue)
This is where both our ceremony and reception will take place. It's a comfortable 3-star beachfront hotel with everything you need for a relaxing stay, including air-conditioned rooms, a swimming pool, restaurant and bar, and direct access to beautiful Diani Beach. It's simple but beautiful. We've negotiated special rates for our wedding guests per room not per person.

Travelling Together? Boutique Villas
Travelling with family or a group of friends? Renting a private villa can be one of the best (and often most affordable) ways to experience Diani.
Many villas offer private pools, spacious living areas and multiple bedrooms, making them perfect for spending quality time together before and after the wedding. Most villas are self-catering, but many owners can also arrange a private chef if you'd rather sit back, relax and enjoy your holiday.
Tequila Sunrise Beach Cabana
A beautiful beachfront villa with a private pool and direct beach access. Perfect for families or groups wanting a relaxed, private stay just a short distance from the wedding venue.
