Advantages: -Very nice gardens , variety of cuisine
Disadvantages: -access road under repair and no wifi access in the rooms

I stayed in the Safari Park Hotel on the outskirts of Nairobi from 31 October 2011 to 4 November 2011. For me, the major plus factor for this hotel is the surroundings. The beautiful expansive gardens offer a really relaxing atmosphere away from the hustl ... Read review

Our heavenly hotel in Mombasa!
Review of Southern Palms Beach Resort, Ukunda by Wickedinrock

Advantages: Great pools and pool bars, wonderful food, lovely rooms with balconies, a fantastic place to stay!
Disadvantages: The transfer from the airport wasn't fun!

After a miserable Christmas break with flu I desperately wanted to take a January holiday to beat the winter blues. My partner and I could only take a week off work but really wanted to go somewhere hot so decided Africa it was! I’ve always wanted to go o ... Read review

The Dolphin Hotel. Shanzu.
Review of Dolphin Hotel Shanzu Beach Kenya, Mombasa by GillyMN

Advantages: Fantastic staff. Lovely rooms. Fabulous location. Amazing wildlife. Lovely gardens.
Disadvantages: Not very disabled friendly. Electricity cuts. Boring food after the first few days.

How did we get here? After a particularly damp and dismal year we decided that a bit of sun was necessary. We looked online and after a lot of searching and indecision finally lit on The African Safari Club. We paid about £400 each for flight and 14 ... Read review

Advantages: An inexpensive way to get close up to some wildlife. Well laid out. Very good free guides.
Disadvantages: Not very disabled friendly but then I don't supose many jungle places could be.

How did we get to Haller? During our recent trip to Kenya we decided to pay a visit to an attraction that a lot of the other guests in our hotel had recommended. We walked down the hotel Drive and after a bit of haggling with a Tuk-Tuk driver paid ov ... Read review

Heaven is a place on earth! Voi Safari Lodge. Tsavo East,Kenya
Review of Voi Safari Lodge, Tsavo East by GillyMN

Advantages: Fabulous views of wildlife. Good food, lovely staff.
Disadvantages: Baboons are a bit frightening and can be very aggressive.

High on a hill Voi Safari Lodge stands high on a rocky outcrop overlooking the vast plains of Tsavo East game reserve in Kenya. It is possible to see for about thirty miles in three directions. This means that wildlife can be observed making the tr ... Read review

Review of Indian Ocean Beach Club, Mombasa by splendid23

Advantages: Queit, idyllic and relaxing

Then you will love it! There aren't many major tour operators advertising the Indian Ocean Beach Club. The last was Kuoni or you can book direct on the hotel website and enquire about airport transfers (they will arrnage to collect you). by splendid23
