Resort near The BeachSummary of reviews related to the 'Beach' categoryChale Island Resort boasts one of the best beaches in Mombasa with direct access to a pristine, private and clean white sandy shore. Guests can enjoy paddling and wading walks during low tides. The beach is renowned for its stunning beauty with some describing it as a spectacular private spot that is almost like a peaceful retreat filled with natural beauty. The beach banda was also highly praised by guests. The private island itself is amazing with a location and beach that is stunning, making it the perfect place for a serene and peaceful getaway. However, some guests have noted that the beach can be littered with washed-up seaweed and there may be pesky vendors trying to sell snorkeling and diving trips. Furthermore, during low tide, guests will have to take a tractor transfer to swim in a small pool, but this is a small inconvenience when experiencing the paradisiacal island and can be balanced out by the nice bar on the beach and the opportunity to take a walk around the mangrove trees in the morning. Monkeys can also be seen on the premises, adding to the unique experience.

Very Good

From $224

Resort near The BeachSummary of reviews related to the 'Beach' categorySwahili Beach presents a mixed bag of experiences when it comes to its beach. The private beach offers scenic beauty and tranquility with its stunning, soft white sand and tidy appearance. Many guests appreciated the beautiful beachfront, calling it a gem and a fantastic spot for relaxation. The hotel's beach bar and nearby restaurants received positive remarks, adding to the overall beachside experience.

However, several challenges were noted. The beach is often described as rocky, making it less suitable for swimming. The presence of seaweed and coral, particularly at low tide, further complicates access to the water and many found it impossible to swim due to these conditions. The beach also faces cleanliness issues with some areas being somewhat dirty, having overflowing garbage and swarms of flies. Despite good maintenance efforts, seaweed remains a persistent problem.

Beach service was criticized as being poor and the presence of vendors was seen as an annoyance by many, diminishing the sense of seclusion. The rocky nature of the beach and limited swimming options make it less appealing compared to other areas in Diani. While the beach itself is beautiful, its practical limitations and cleanliness issues make it less friendly and enjoyable for some visitors.

The beach access is notably convenient and well-maintained, offering guests the opportunity to enjoy the pristine white sands and warm, inviting waters.
