Ary Homestay Nyali Town Home Behind Citymall Nyali, Mombasa, Kenya

After two weeks relaxing at Diani Beach it was good to have plenty of activity and facilities nearby. However, the property was several metres from the main road so time in the property was peaceful. Plenty of beaches close by - some of the finest in the world. At the top of the street is City Mall, a large shopping arcade with a vast mix of shops, restaurants and a Carrefour supermarket. Plenty of tuk Tuks and Mombasa within easy reach. The house was spotless. Carol the cleaner was totally diligent, cleaning everywhere. The beds were changed every day. There's a massive lounge/dining room, a fully equipped spacious kitchen, a fridge and TV in every bedroom, water and hot drinks available on the large landing. The highlight was the roof terrace with plants and plenty of seating and views. Jarvis, the host, was extremely helpful, giving us a comprehensive briefing and at the end of the phone when help or advice was needed. The pool is clean and inviting. We would readily come to stay again, perhaps for much longer next time.

No problems. However, although the pool was kept clean the facilities, a block of toilet, changing and shower room needs attention and needs to be much cleaner.
