Welcome to paradise

Nestled along Kenya’s stunning east coast, just south of Mombasa, Diani Beach is a pristine stretch of white sand that meets the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. Spanning 25 kilometers, this tropical paradise is framed by lush green forests and offers serene views that extend to the open plains of the nearby Shimba Hills National Reserve.

Each villa is fully serviced, with a personal chef and maid at your disposal, allowing you to experience the perfect blend of 5-star luxury and authentic African charm. At Almanara, every detail is designed to provide an unforgettable stay in one of Africa’s most breathtaking coastal settings.
