Your Accommodation
The 40 detached bungalows overlook well-tended tropical grounds. They are air-conditioned, spacious, simply furnished and have a large terrace, twin beds and a private shower and wc. There is also a 13-amp power point and a safe, for which a charge is made. The bungalows have the added attraction of a small, separate lounge area. Please note: It is possible to accommodate a third person in a
standard twin room.
Wining and Dining
A small open-air restaurant overlooking the lagoon offers varied hot and cold buffet style meals at breakfast and lunch. Dinner will be served from either a buffet or table d'hote menu in an intimate, open-air restaurant which overlooks the pool. For
that special occasion, a separate à la carte menu specialises in local seafood dishes at very reasonable prices. Refreshing drinks are available throughout the day from the 'Dhow' bar which has stunning views over the beach and lagoon beyond. In the
evening, the Laguna bar is a popular meeting place.
Facilities and Entertainment
The unique location of the hotel on Kilifi lagoon means that it benefits year-round from perfect conditions for windsurfing and canoeing, both of which are free of charge. Snorkelling equipment are also available to hire at the hotel.
For the less energetic, simply soak up the atmosphere of Kenya by relaxing on a sun bed, which are free to guests, around the swimming pool which overlooks the hotel's small beach. Please note that pool towels are not provided.
The pace on dry land is more relaxed - the hotel has a tennis court (free equipment and court hire) and the staff organise occasional daytime activities such as beach volleyball, water aerobics, table tennis, darts and board games. In the afternoon, a lesiurely boat trip to Bird Island should not be missed, where you can see the many varieties of bird life that live in the mangroves (payable locally). Evening entertainment is provided several nights each week.
