Kick back in the balmy afternoon sun with a long drink and watch the fishing dhows sail by, the only sound the haunting call of the fish eagle. The exclusive resort of the Funzi Keys is just 15 minutes by plane from Mombasa on the Kenyan mainland and yet a world away.
The stone and thatch hotel is intimate and secluded, with the feeling that you have discovered a very special secret. Spacious guest cottages have been individually designed in natural materials and are subtly injected with brightly coloured fabrics to blend unobtrusively with the idyllic beachfront location. One of the many highlights of the cottages are the oversized Jacuzzis with breathtaking sea views.
At the heart of Funzi Keys is the informal yet stylish main building, crafted from local materials and furnished with comfortable sofas and colourful cushions. On the upper floor is the restaurant, which serves delicious island fare featuring freshly caught seafood and locally grown fruits and vegetables. There are no menus as guests are invited to ask for what they desire, then the expert chefs prepare the dishes to perfection! After dinner, relax with a drink in the dhow shaped bar.
Located on a west facing white sandy beach, you can sit in front of your own campfire and watch the blazing African sun sink into the sea in complete privacy. For more energetic guests, it is possible to enjoy sailing, snorkelling, windsurfing and canoeing or perhaps take a boat trip up the Ramisi River or Funzi Creek for an unforgettable glimpse of a kingfisher, crocodile or even a dolphin! At Funzi Keys it is possible to do as much or as little as you please!
The unique appeal of the Funzi Keys is its unspoilt and beautiful natural scenery and indulgent, discreet atmosphere. Funzi Keys really is the perfect place to escape and hide away from the outside world. |
