Shambani is a stupendous place to relax in an absolute way and is the ideal base to undertake a safari. The staff that handles the cottages is highly professional and always available. The furnishings of the cottages leave a visitor breathless. The beach is undoubtedly the most beautiful part of the coastline of Diani; there are not even too many beach boys and those that are there never excessively are intrude on the visitors. If there are annoyances, visitors have only to escape and refresh themselves in the swimming pool of Shambani: absolutely stupendous! The safaris organized in Shambani offer the maximum one that can be asked in professionalism and organization; Salim is a fabulous driver, an experienced guide and a fantastic person, the lodges proposed to spend the nights are the best on the market and the games driver are assured to evoke some great emotions in their guests and to deliver some wonderful momories. Vacation for 2 persons from Italy, Tuscany, 38 and 35 years old; Period vacation from end January and early February 2010.

Recommended for: Tourists without a car, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.
