Property information

Experience tropical living at this beautiful cottage nestled within a resort that sits right on approximately 10 acres of tropic beauty and tranquility ! This property is located right next to, and shares a compound with a Beach Resort. It is a beachfront property, but the cottage is not right on the sea, because of the vast compound. It is approximately 400 metres away from the beach and not sea view. Guests have direct access to the beach through the resort. The entire property consists of several cottages that surround a big pool that is both adult and child friendly. Guests can take a nap on the sunbeds there as they are serenaded by the soothing water falling from the fountain. On a lazy day, guests can chill out at the beach bar, lounge bar, restaurant / spa in the compound. There are also additional pools and a jacuzzi on the resort side although guests that may want to use these resort amenities have to pay to use them, including the beach beds. The cottage compromises of one bedroom with an attached bathroom/ shower / toilet. The bedroom features a Swahili crafted King-sized bed that comes with a mosquito net. The bedroom comes with an air conditioner and an over head ceiling fan, a dresser and closet. We provide toiletries and towels for your entire stay, as well as hot showers for those of you that love a nice hot shower at the coast. The kitchen comes fully equipped with a cooker, microwave, refrigerator and sufficient cooking utensils, cutlery etc, minus groceries. Chef services are available on request and at a fee. It is important that at this point i emphasize that unlike other properties at the coast, there are no monkeys at this property, so guests don't have to worry about monkeys making away with their bananas 😎 lol The living area comes with a divan sofa that can sleep one person meaning that the entire house can accommodate upto 3 guests. Also comes with a smart TV with Netflix and YouTube and guests can enjoy other live streams.

Getting around is an easy breeze either by cab, or the many bodabodas (motorbike taxis) or Tuktuks (two wheel taxis) that are most popular with tourists and residents.
