Vacation rentals with breakfast in Shanzu

**Location not as shown on Airbnb** HOWEVER, the location was actually (I think) better than Bamburi, although it depends what you like - Mtwapa has a lot more going on and is way less tourist-centred, and there is a beach in walking distance. On arrival, Carol was very helpful with directions. I took a cab from Mombasa airport for about $20. There is AC available however I preferred to the normal fan. The area has occasional power cuts and water pressure issues but there are ways around it ! They have several bathrooms so if one shower is coming out weakly you can try another. It was no issue. Regular change of linen. Relaxed atmosphere. Carol is a great cook and is available to show you round the area if you wish. As a solo traveller I took her up on the offer and had the most incredible time. It's a very interesting & fun part of the world. (I recommend a trip to Gedi Ruins for affordable information, sightseeing and playing with monkeys. Nearby Watamu is beautiful)

Fantastic host. Ann was very welcoming and the house is clean and beautiful. The breakfast was great too. The place looks just like the photos. The pool is beautiful. Highly recommended.

Très agréable séjour j’ai même voulu rester une nuit de plus Tout était parfait merci

Der Aufenthalt bei Ann war schön. Die Kommunikation vorab mit Ann lief reibungslos und auch während des Aufenthaltes stand Ann einem mit Rat und Tat zur Seite u. a. mit Tipps zum Sonnenliegen mieten am Strand oder auch die Bestellung eines Tuk Tuks, da wir keine afrikanische Handynummer hatten. Der Strand war gut zu Fuß erreichbar. Das Frühstück war jeden Tag außer einem frischgepressten Saft und einem großen Obsttelller eine Überraschung, da es nie das Gleiche gab. Trinkwasser stand auch kostenlos zur Verfügung.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Nora's. The room was very clean and the bathroom is very spacious with 2 large windows. The breakfast is very filling and delicious. The only con was that the wifi didn't work properly in the room. So if you wann get good reception you'll have to sit in the common area or around the pool. which was absolutely fine for me. The poolside is very relaxing and quiet.
