Top 10 hotels in Mombasa, Kenya

August 12, 2022 Malia Yoakum

Mombasa, with a population of 900,000, is no sleepy seaside village. Its beachfront hotels appeal to travelers in search of sun, sand and surf, while its Arab, Indian and colonial European heritage makes for a wide variety of sights to see. Can't find a taxi? Travel by tuk-tuk, a three-wheeled auto rickshaw.

Family holiday done right

Reviewed By daniellem2

We spent 4 wonderful nights at Whitesands as a family of 3. The weather was the only disappointment on our stay and the Sarova team went above and beyond to make sure we still enjoyed our stay. Food is delicious and plentiful, definitely something for everyone. With 4 swimming pools to choose from there is a quiet space when you need one. Rooms were spacious, newly renovated and fully equipped. The best part was the all day kids club. Our daughter woke up begging to go to kids club. The animation team led by Kai keeps the kids busy all day giving parents much needed R&R. I now know why so many people rave about Whitesands. We’ll be back soon for another visit.

Our room was lovely, the staff and service was prompt, cheerful and attentive. The food was so well done, and again the staff was incredibly helpful with recommendations and service. The lodge itself is a treat for the eyes, with excellent access to a quiet beach strip. Our stay was relatively short this time, we will definitely be going back for a longer stay next month.

Disappointed

Reviewed By TasneemN15

Had a pleasant welcome, rooms were decent but Was extremely disappointed as I had an early check out and no water in the showers at 1 am , telephones not working to report and after reporting had to follow up for the water issue by walking to the reception twice only to get ridiculed. Had cockroaches in the room and I was terribly dissatisfied with the way my issue was handles. I thought the service had improved with their new management but appears not to be the case. Never again .
