Serena Beach Resort & Spa, North Coast

Serena Beach Resort & Spa is located on Shanzu Beach, just an hour by road from Mombasa. Fringed by white beaches and shaded by coconut palms, the silver ribbon of the Swahili coastline offers the ultimate tropical paradise. The architecture of the Serena Beach Resort & Spa replicates the winding lanes and colourful marketplaces of a traditional 13th Century Swahili town. The hotel is a lovely mix of tranquil relaxation, active watersports and great cuisine, all rounded off with five star service. At its heart lies the coral-built ‘Fortress of Tranquillity,’ the exquisite ‘Maisha’ Spa.
