Who We Are
Set on Africa’s Leading Beach, Flamboyant is a family owned collection of five beachfront homes surrounded by tropical gardens and the Indian Ocean. Whether you’re escaping as a couple, travelling with family or gathering with friends, you’ll find authentic hospitality, comfortable accommodation and a home away from home in the heart of Diani Beach.
Meet Our Founder
George Barbour
Flamboyant began as a family home, built by George Barbour and his family long before Diani Beach became the destination it is today.
A farmer, Kenyan national rugby player, rally driver, founder of the South Coast Pirates Rugby Club and winner of the 1990 Rhino Charge, George believed that the best things in life were built with care and shared generously.
The gardens have witnessed it all. They watched his children run barefoot beneath the trees, welcomed friends gathered around long tables and echoed with decades of laughter and stories. Today, those same gardens welcome guests from around the world, inviting them to become part of the next chapter.
What began as George’s family home remains exactly that at heart. A home, now shared with the world.
