Travellers Beach Hotel & Spa - Mombasa

You stay at Travellers Beach Hotel & Spa on the north coast of Mombasa, a beachfront property with five swimming pools and a spa. The hotel has two hundred and eighty-eight rooms, some facing the sea with private balconies, others looking onto gardens with coconut trees. The spa offers hydrotherapy, facials, and massages using local oils like moringa and lavender.

Dining options include Safina Restaurant for buffets, Sher E Punjab for Indian food, and Suli Suli Grill by the beach. Bars serve drinks at the poolside and along the shore. The hotel is thirty minutes by road from Mombasa town, close enough for day trips but set apart for quiet.

Conference spaces accommodate groups from ten to four hundred, with high-speed internet and projectors. The beach is the main draw — long, sandy, and lined with palms, with water sports available. Monkeys sometimes pass through the grounds, and the sea is audible from the rooms that face it.

The hotel has been here long enough that the trees are tall and the paths shaded. It is a place built for heat, with pools at every turn and ceilings high to let the air move.
