Serena Beach Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at the Serena beach hotel and resort with a group of friends in October this year. It is a very beautiful Arabesque style resort hotel set in vast well maintained grounds. The hotel rooms are cleaned every day to a good standard and have private balconies to sit and enjoy the abundant tropical trees and fauna. There is ample choice for breakfast and a choice of buffet and à la carte dinner for guests. Afternoon tea and cakes are served for guests on the hotel ground free of charge. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The hotel administration staff went out of their way ensure that we were comfortable and dealt with our minor requests immediately. We had a very pleasant stay here and I recommend this hotel highly."

Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa, Mombasa

8/10 Good

"Our stay at Sarova Whitesands Beach Resort & Spa was memorable, thanks in large part to Mr. Peter, the resort driver. He was waiting for us when we arrived at the Mombasa train terminal and immediately made us feel welcome. He was extremely friendly, taught us a little Swahili, and shared interesting facts about Mombasa’s history as we drove past various locations on the way to the resort. If possible, request Mr. Peter as your driver—he is the best! We also loved dining at Thai-Ci and we ate there every day. Our favorites were the tempura shrimp and wok chicken with fried rice. We paid for our shuttle from train station in advance. My husband and I requested an update on the $59 credit at least three times, and each time we were told that the staff were checking on it. At checkout, we were informed that we needed to pay for our transportation back to the train station. I asked whether our credit could be applied, and they agreed. The standard shuttle cost was $40, but we were not offered the remaining $19 balance. In short, the all-inclusive package covers only a one-way pickup from Mombasa Airport; train-station transfers may involve additional charges, so confirm the arrangements and any credits in advance. Bring plenty of Kenyan shillings for tips because the resort does not have an ATM, and there is not one nearby. Also, our room was very hot, and we were unable to adjust the temperature to and there were no fan in our suite."

"All was amazing"

Jumeirah Beach Front Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"My group of four had an amazing 9-day stay at Jumeirah. The property is clean and lovely. The staff - the staff - the staff - Jumeirah did an awesome job vetting their staff. We met so many amazing people - Linah, Prisca, Bilal, Mercy, Benedict, Elizabeth, Ann, Alicia, Najim, the staff in the reception area! Just to name a few. We had 2 separate rooms and they made arrangements for us to all have one whole apartment. If you are vacationing in Nyali or the surrounding areas, Jumeirah is definitely the best place to be. Please note, this is a hot spot for parties in the evenings, especially Thursdays-Sundays. If your room is close to the party area and a bit noisy for you, the team is very understanding and will relocate you. I’ll definitely be returning with my kids in the near future. Miss the place already."
