Look at Diani beach on Google maps and stay adjacent to the wider parts of the beach

3/5 - Okay

Quite a distance from Nyali. Best bet would be to rent a car and drive - Uber (one way) cost just as much as a one day rental.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

Be ready for locals to harass you to buy the same bracelet over and over again! I visited several bars and restaurants along the way. Columbus shades has amazing food. Watch out for the monkeys though! LOL
