Hotel The Funzi Keys (Mombasa, Kenya)

About Hotel The Funzi Keys

Tucked away on a private peninsula of Funzi Island, The Funzi Keys’ unique appeal is its luxurious seclusion and beautiful natural scenery, where the sight of local fishing dhows sailing by evokes colourful images of Swahili history and timeless traditions. Superbly located on a private, west-facing beach with glorious views of the African sunset, this is the perfect place to escape from the outside world in style. Accessible by a convenient 15 minute air transfer from Mombasa, or a short distance by road and hotel boat from Diani with its daily air services from Nairobi and the Maasai Mara. The accommodation consists of eight Sea-view Cottages and nine Beach-front Cottages. Each of the Sea-view cottages is shaded under a lofty thatched roof, fronted by a sandy terrace. The spacious, deluxe Beach-front Cottages also boast a jacuzzi with the sandy beach on the door-step. Two of these cottages have extensions specially designed for children, complete with their own en suite facilities. Life at The Funzi Keys is relaxed and many guests do little more than unwind by the spectacular free-form pool or laze on the pristine white sandbank with chilled drinks and a good book. The more energetic guests can enjoy sailing, windsurfing, canoeing and creek fishing or perhaps take a boat trip up the Ramisi River or Funzi Creek in search of brilliant kingfishers, crocodiles and dolphins. The hotel also has its own luxury deep sea fishing yacht. The essence of The Funzi Keys is bare-foot luxury and total informality.
