Palms is situated on the beautiful white sandy shores of the Indian Ocean
at Diani Beach, 35 km south of Mombasa. Our 4 star Beach Resort has a
unique blend of traditional Swahili and Arabic architecture. The property
spreads over 10 acres of mature tropical gardens and coconut palms, and
our facilities are of a world class standard.

four-poster double bed, and a standard size day bed that can convert into
a second bed. Average room size is 26 square metres. There are tiled ceramic
floors throughout the room and bathroom. Every room is fitted with a mosquito
net that covers the entire double bed to ensure a peaceful night! Each
room is fitted with a combination safe and direct dial telephone for your

All our rooms overlook the swimming pools and gardens, there is however
a possibility of pre-booking one of our Ocean Front rooms - please enquire.
