A luxury retreat on the Kenyan Coast

Somak Holidays is delighted to announce the launch of a brand new luxury resort, Tented Beach Retreat, Gazi Bay on 1st October 2007. The secluded retreat is owned and managed by the same team behind the celebrated ‘Cove Luxury Tree House’ resort, also in Kenya, and is book-able exclusively through Somak Holidays.

An intimate collection of 12 Arabian-designed tents dotted along the white sand of Gazi Bay in Mombasa, this exclusive hideaway offers a ‘back to nature’ experience that’s second to none. Guests are close to the beach and surrounded by nature, yet will indulge in utter luxury inside their private tent where an attentive butler caters to their every whim.

Each deluxe tent has a four-poster bed, dressing table, bathroom with large shower area, air conditioning, mini-bar and a lounge area leading onto a patio that overlooks the swimming pool. Breakfast is served on the tent patio, lunch is chosen from the snack grill and dinner is on offer at the restaurant. Activities available during the day include bush walks, heritage visits, diving and deep sea fishing, water sports, sunset cruises and rejuvenating treatments at the retreat’s health parlour.

Somak Holidays’ Tented Beach Retreat, Gazi Bay is in keeping with the ‘Cove’ philosophy that a holiday should be a time to relax, leave the rest of the world behind and do as little or as much as you like. This is barefoot luxury at its best!

The team behind the new development whole-heartedly supports responsible tourism and works closely with local communities to replenish resources used, and contribute to local development projects.

Prices start from £1,099 per person for seven nights on an all inclusive basis including return flights with Kenya Airways from London Heathrow.
