Tucked away on an unspoiled island in the Indian Ocean, yet only 15 minutes flying time from Mombasa, the Funzi Keys´ unique appeal is its luxurious seclusion and beautiful natural scenery. Surrounded by water and superbly located on a west-facing beach with glorious views of the African sunset, this remote and exclusive hideaway is the perfect place to escape from the outside world in style.
Funzi Keys has a large swimming pool with an extended deck area looking over the water which is used for outdoor dining. There is also a huge main lounge and dining area. Lunches and dinners have daily changing menus with an international theme from highly skilled chefs and meals can be arranged at a supplement either on cushions on the beach, on a sandbank or at your room. There are no set meal times and no dress code – being relaxed and comfortable is the theme here!
The accommodation consists of nine spacious beach front cottages set along the high-water line and constructed of stone and thatch with large netted windows open to the balmy sea breezes. Each of the individually designed rooms has a hand carved king-sized four-poster bed and is furnished with local wooden artifacts and colorful fabrics plus a Jacuzzi with spectacular sea view! All cottages are provided with fans, safes and beach accessories and an oversized bathroom. In front of each cottage are private sitting areas where guests can enjoy a drink and watch the sun go down in total privacy.
There are also eight sea view cottages set back between the beach front rooms. These also have four poster beds and all other facilities the same as the beach fronts but not Jacuzzi baths. The large lounge area is full of huge Swahili sofas and squashy cushions and from the dining room upstairs you have an amazing view across the water.
There is a massage room and a variety of activities on offer, but most people just want to stay here and enjoy the exclusive retreat for what it is – a little corner of getaway from the world
