Swahili charm and affordable prices.

Restaurant and sunbeds are right on the beach.

 

•  Mbuyu Beach is a tiny,  eco-friendly lodge in a tropical garden on the Indian Ocean. An old baobab tree ("mbuyu" in Swahili) has given the place its name. Far and wide, there are no big hotels.

 

•  We have just five cottages and three rooms that can accommodate up to 16 guests.  If you are looking for peace and quiet in an unspoilt environment - this is your place. Sustainability is part of our everyday life and we support green projects throughout the village.

 

•  Msambweni has still kept its friendly Swahili charm. The fishermen moor their sailing boats close to the bungalows – so enjoying the “catch of the day” is always guaranteed in our much-praised little restaurant. 

 

•  Located halfway between Mombasa and Tanzania, Msambweni is a good starting point for snorkeling trips to Shimoni or a safari in the Shimba Hills - if you want to leave your hammock at all...
