Swahili Beach Resort offers a stylish retreat on Diani Beach. The main buildings are impressive, with a blend of modern and Arabian architecture. The main foyer enjoys views over the eight infinity pools and to the Indian Ocean beyond.
During your stay, you can experience a variety of dining options, from The Spice Route restaurant, which serves a fusion of Indian and Swahili dishes, to the Zanz-i-bar Champagne and Oyster Bar, a dedicated seafood restaurant offering panoramic views across the ocean.
While staying at Swahili Beach, you can enjoy relaxing at one of the many pools, spend the early morning strolling along the white-sandy beach or enjoy various land and water activities. There is a spa and fitness centre located on the seafront, with its own cove and pool. A well-equipped water sports centre offers a range of beach and ocean activities, including snorkelling and PADI-certified diving.
Swahili Beach Resort is a favourite at Audley as you get a 5* resort experience with a lovely Kenyan personalised charm. Wonderfully spaced out, the resort offers an array of things to do (both in the hotel and on the beach) as well as a range of places to just sit back, relax, and let the world breeze by.
