Mombasa Hotels

Mombasa hotels have it all. Get away from the crowds, ride a camel on the beach, snorkel in a protected lagoon and sail in a dhow – all these await you at the hotels along the idyllic Indian Ocean coast. Of course, sun-worshipping on palm-fringed blindingly white sandy beaches is a priority. For those who can tear themselves from the sunbed, the laid-back historic town of Mombasa is less than 10 kms away from the nearest beach resorts.

Most hotels in Mombasa offer a choice of all-inclusive or half-board. However, not all guests are created equal, and some travelers have complained that full and half-board guests can be allocated a lower priority in terms of service.

Mombasa Beach Hotel

3 Stars
The Mombasa Beach Hotel has twin advantages. It is minutes away from Mombasa’s Old Town but, with huge beautifully landscaped grounds, it is a nice sanctuary as well. It is an older hotel and this shows in the slightly outdated décor. However, it has a lively atmosphere and is more popular with African guests than the other beach hotels. Many of its guests are weekenders from Nairobi.
