Where to Stay

Where to stay in Kenya depends very much on the type of honeymoon that you are planning. If you are looking for remote and quiet beaches take a look at the resorts to the north of Mombasa such as Malindi and Bamburi. The majority of the beach resorts on the Kenyan coast including Diani and kilifi, offer water sports, snorkelling and scuba diving in the Indian Ocean.

For honeymooners looking for the city experience consider Mombasa. Mombasa is based by the coast and offers the best of both worlds, beautiful beaches and a bustling city full of culture and history. Nairobi is based further inland and has some great shopping, sightseeing and museums. Both of these cities provide a good base for safari trips to the various game reserves in Kenya and Tanzania.
