Set on the shining ribbon of sand known as Shanzu Beach, shaded by fronds of palm trees, with the vast expanse of the Indian Ocean before it, Mombasa Serena Beach Hotel is the quintessential getaway.
A member of Club "Best Hotels of the World", it is the only property on Kenya's coastline accorded this distinction.
Whether it is fine dining beneath the stars at Nyota Terrace, a casual but elegant ambience at the dhow-shaped Jahazi beachside grill with its sand floors, informal snacking at Makuti Bar, or sunset cocktails at the Mashua, the choices are always exceptional.
The 166 guest rooms are tastefully decorated with traditional design themes. Each is appointed with native art and furniture. Within these surroundings the guest has at his or her disposal the most modern amenities. All rooms have private balconies with vistas of the ocean or quiet courtyards with meticulously maintained gardens. Each room has a satellite television, air condition and direct dial telephone
At the water-sports centre scuba diving, windsurfing, deep-sea fishing, mini-sailing and coral reef snorkelling are available to all hotel guests. Professional instructors are available for lessons.
There is a large outdoor swimming pool with a "swim-up" bar and an adjacent wading pool for children.
For the energetic there are four flood-lit tennis courts, two air-conditioned squash courts, and beach volleyball. There are also pool tables, table tennis and shuffle board available to guests. Early morning aerobics classes are offered for those who want to begin their day with exercise, fresh-air and sunshine.
There is nightly entertainment to match your mood - dance bands by a floodlit pool, colourful floorshows or a lively open air disco lit, among other things, by the moonlight.
