If relaxing by the pool next to your luxury tented camp while watching Hippo pods wallow in the natural spring pools is what you are looking for then Finch Hattons is the place to be. With private suites fitted with indoor and outdoor showers, copper bath tubs and creamy white linens offset by soft lighting, the suites are reminiscent of the glorious golden days of safari, when wealthy adventurers would spend nights in the bush surrounded by wildlife while enjoying the comforts of home provided by accents such as beautiful hardwood writing tables, intricate chandeliers and ornately carved chests lending to a rustic yet luxurious ambiance.

Kilindini offers a luxurious serene stay with each pavilion having its own private tropical garden, infinity pool, an extraordinary rainfall shower room and your own dedicated butler. The Ocean views from the pavilion are spectacular offering a liberating sensation of being “at one with nature”. Kilindi achieves the perfect marriage between Scandinavian minimalism and the dramatic architectural overtones of Middle Eastern heritage, whilst encouraging an open, ‘back-to-nature’ ambiance throughout. This same openness allows the gentle ocean breeze to waft throughout each of the rooms and carry with it the delightful soundtrack of Kilindi’s colourful birdlife. Any stay at Kilindi will be a delight for the senses.
