Hotels Own Introduction

Kinondo Kwetu is the perfect retreat for those who wish to do absolutely nothing, yet it also offers an array of exciting activities for adventurers of all ages. From serene yoga sessions to exhilarating skydiving, the possibilities span both ends of the spectrum. Some activities are seasonal, influenced by the winds and tides.

Each room and cottage at Kinondo Kwetu is uniquely designed, adorned with handcrafted Swahili décor and antique furnishings, adding a personal touch to every space. Many accommodations are spacious enough for more than two guests, and our reservations team, Lucy and Philippa, are happy to assist in arranging the perfect setup for your stay.

Dining at Kinondo Kwetu is a delightful experience, with three-course lunches and dinners served in picturesque settings—beneath the shade of trees by the beach or under the starry night sky. Our fresh fruits and vegetables are locally sourced, while seafood is freshly caught straight from the Indian Ocean, just steps away.

We envisioned Kinondo Kwetu as an African "home away from home"—a place where you can truly connect with your surroundings, unwind completely, and embrace a slower pace of life. But for those seeking adventure, endless possibilities await.

Nestled at the secluded end of Galu Beach, south of Diani Beach, Kinondo Kwetu offers a level of privacy that is hard to find, with the nearest hotel two kilometers away. Whether you choose to relax on a sunbed gazing at the vast ocean or sink your feet into the incoming tide from a foldable beach chair, the tranquility of this hidden gem is yours to enjoy.
