LOCATION: "The sea at Mombasa is as blue as a cornflower, and, outside the inlet to the harbour, the long breakers of the Indian Ocean draw a thin crooked white line, and give out a low thunder even in the calmest weather. " (Karen Blixen, Out of Africa) Styled to resemble a 13th century Swahili town complete with winding lanes, carved balconies, fountained courts and bustling market squares, the Serena Beach Hotel provides an oasis of tranquillity whilst delivering a unique mix of high-action water sports, sybaritic sun worship, world-class cuisine and vibrant nightlife. Set back from the powder-white sands and shimmering waters of the Mombasa National Marine Park, the hotel décor blends the time-honoured intricacy of Swahili carving with the jewelled glow of Arabian lanterns, the white-gleaming splendour of a Sultan’s palace and the lotus-cool of a Persian water garden. The extensive coconut-palm cooled grounds offer an exotic mix of tropical trees and bright blossoms and centre on an idyllic sky-blue swimming pool with a thatched ‘swim-up’ bar and crystal waters that cascade into the tiled coolness of the market square below.

The cuisine, which features internationally themed menus and lavish buffets, also draws on a strong Swahili influence to introduce an abundance of tropical fruits, exotic spices, coconuts, limes, coriander and fresh-caught seafood to the colourful choice of dishes. The Pool Bar - Under the shade of a palm-thatched roof, looking out over the sapphire waters of the pool is Coconut Willy’s Pool Bar, a ‘swim-up’ bar that allows guests to enjoy a cooling drink, without having to get out of the pool. The Jahazi Grill - Drawn up on the shoreline, just yards away from the breaking waves, and built to resemble a traditional Swahili dhow - complete with sanded decks, painted prow, roped capstans, lashed sails and kanga-decked tables, the Jahazi Grill specialises in stunning extravaganzas of fresh-caught seafood. Choices include: crab, squid, lobster, prawns and a wide variety of sea fish. Vegetarian and non-fish options are also available.

Sample Swahili Life on the Nyota Terrace - The breeze wafted Nyota terrace offers a rare glimpse into the traditional Swahili world. A world where veiled maidens sit behind fretwork screens, brass lanterns swing in carved niches, visitors recline on sumptuous sofas and families sip cardamom-flavoured coffee and look down from carved balconies on to the bustle of the square below. The Piano Bar - The internationally designed piano bar features live piano music, a sophisticated cocktail line up and generous open-air terraces where guests may recline on cushioned benches as they trace the path of the moon across the ocean. The Ice Cream parlour - Centre stage to the bustle of the market place is the cool of the ice cream parlour offering everything from lavish knickerbockers glories to luscious fruit concoctions. The Makuti Bar - Set amongst rolling lawns, the thatched Makuti
bar offers teas coffees and freshly squeezed juices and hosts the
colourful Lamu Market where a wide range of traditional music, cultural
displays, local handicrafts and tempting Swahili snacks are on offer.
