Designed in the style of a 13th century Swahili town, this resort is situated on the beautiful white sands of Shanzu Beach, adjacent to Mombasa Marine National Park, a great viewing point for turtles and host to 250 marine species.
Luxurious rooms are set in two-storey buildings and overlook manicured tropical gardens or the stunning Indian Ocean. For delicious fresh seafood we recommend the Jahazi Grill restaurant and if it's a little relaxation you're after, make sure to head for the excellent Maisha Mind, Body & Spirit Spa. Family suites are ideal for family groups and the children's animation programme will provide entertainment for younger guests.
Offering a free-form beachfront swimming pool and swim-up bar, sports facilities such as a tennis court and squash court and three restaurants, the Serena Beach Resort and Spa is ideal for those seeking rejuvenation in paradise.
