Featuring sea views, Ary Beachfront Homestay Nyali- On Mombasa Beach provides accommodation with a private beach area, a garden and a shared lounge, around a few steps from Mombasa Beach. This beachfront property offers access to free WiFi and free private parking. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, full-day security and currency exchange for guests.

The hosts, both Javis and Ary, were just the best, I not only felt safe but felt I was family. They took their time to ensure my stay was comfortable. The facility was cleaned daily, and the staff were really friendly. It was very clean, safe, and in a great location. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone. One can easily visit the nearby malls, restaurants, clubs, and movie theaters all near to your apartment.

    Amongst the hustle and bustle if Mombasa you can enter your huge room with peace and quiet. Upon arrival, we were greeted with smiles and a great host. Nothing was too much. As we had an early start, they provided us with a take away breakfast, enough to feed a few! Yummy dinner and yummy breakfast!

    The apartment is not very big, but sufficient for 1 or 2 persons, it is well equipped - fridge, air conditioning, wi-fi and hot water always working, the location is close to Mombasa old town, easy walk to grocery stores (Quickmart or Naivas). The entrance might look a bit shabby, but it's not an issue, there are locals around that will kindly greet you. The host is always available for any questions or doubts. In general, highly recommended, thank you!
