Life Ain't a Beach Here
Review of Travellers Beach Hotel, Malindi by
Seagreen
Advantages: If all you want is to lie by a pool and eat stodge, it's fine
Disadvantages: Pretty much anything else
*Overall - a disappointing stay. The grounds, pool etc. are pleasant enough and the rooms are fine. It was unfortunately the people that ruined it. As a young woman alone, I felt very much like an object of curiosity to all and often felt vulnerable.* ...

Quick review of Whitesands Hotel, Mombasa
Review of Whitesands Hotel, Mombasa by
ioio
my family has been going to whitesands for 15 years, and we find it, absolutely great. the rooms are comfortable and always, clean, the view is breath-taking, it is the hotel with the largest sea-front, and the five pools are just perfect. the food is always delicious, with a huge variety to choose from everyday, and all the staff are always helpful, polite, and eager to please you. Overall, the best exotic and relaxing experience in a beautiful landscape.

Worth the hassle
Review of Tsavo East National Park (Kenya) by
pbryer
Advantages: wildlife, scenery, people, game parks, safari
Disadvantages: danger of robbery and violence, beaches, hassle
The sense of menace was clear and tangible. We were in a taxi completing the brief journey from Malindi's tiny airport to our hotel on the east coast of Kenya. As we looked out of the car windows as we passed through a couple of villages we were eyeballed ...

The beauty of the Mara
Review of Masai Mara National Park (Kenya) by
Sophie-Kaia
Advantages: learning about an amazing culture/stunning scenery/up close with the animals
Disadvantages: food and drink where we were staying was not inclusive so rather expensive
I travelled to the Mara as a part of a seven day safari. I stayed at the Serena lodge for one night and spent two fantastic days here.
The beauty of the Maasai Mara is the abundance of wildlife, we went on four game drives and were not disappointed onc ...

Awful
Review of Sun n' Sand Beach, Kikambala by
HARVEYAPOLLO326
Advantages: Hot weather
Disadvantages: Everything else
I stayed here in December 2007 and have to say I had the worst holiday ever! The resort is a secure compound and is very isolated.
This left me feeling as if I was under house arrest and I could have been anywhere - This would have been ok if the sea/b ...

Quick review of Mombasa (Kenya)
Review of Mombasa (Kenya) by
harvey1978
I stayed here for 2 weeks in December 2007, and had a truely horrific time. This culiminated when we left the hotel to go on safari and had our safe broken into and then relocked using our chosen code. We had cash and credit cards stolen leading to a loss of £2100. Aside from this, the hotel was a total disappointment. It was cheap to go here but you really do get what you pay for. The hotel standard is more like 2* or 3* at best. The location is terrible, very isolated and taxi's are crazily expensive, leading to a feeling of being trapped in the resort compound. This feeling isn't helped by the presence of lots of security guards constantly patrolling the perimeter.
