    The place let you feel like in heaven. The staff & the owners are simply amazing. It's totally worth a stop by if you are planning your holidays in Kenya. It's the most relaxing place I have ever been.

  • When is the best time to visit your property for the perfect beach holiday?

    With an average of 300 days of wind per year; and an average of 16 knots, the best months are July through September and January through April. Our beach is protected by a reef, there are no rocks or sea urchins and you can kite on both low tide and high tide. For the perfect beach holiday, we would recommend anytime from September to April. Its warm and sunny and you will have miles and miles of uninterrupted beach.

  • hi, is there decent surf near you guys? I know mambrui and malindi has good surf. and by surf I mean waves, do you guys have boards or do any lessons?

    Hi there, sorry for the delayed response. We are very close to Mambrui so you can visit the spot there and occasionally we have a small break in the bay but do not rent boards or offer lessons.
