This magnificent beach front property is available on a B and B option. We are a family run guest house. Couples have really enjoyed the quiet romantic appeal of the property. Our proximity to the beach and lush gardens are a draw card. We participate in a number of local conservation initiatives.
I was born in Nairobi in 1962 and have a passion for Nature. Kenya's biodiversity is spectacular and within half an hour from our property are 4 IBAs (Interesting Birding Areas)
There are so many things to do, to name a few: walking on the pristine quiet beach, goggling in the Marine Park's phenomenal Coral Gardens, amazing restaurants and bars, conservation projects, historical sites, kite surfing, diving, fishing and much more
