About the host
Hosted by Wanjiku

Hi, I'm Wanjiku and I'm excited to be your host during your stay in Mombasa.
As a frequent traveler myself, I understand the importance of having a comfortable & convenient home away from home. That's why I've designed my VRBO space to provide all the amenities and comforts you need for a memorable stay.
When I'm not hosting guests, I love outdoor activities and I am a hotelier by profession. I look forward to hosting you.
Karibu Mombasa!
Why they chose this property
I chose this location because it's a very secure neighborhood and offers peace & serenity. It is centrally located in Nyali. It is 500m to Nyali Cinemax, 12km to Moi International Airport and 13km to SGR Mombasa terminal.
It is 6 minutes drive to Nyali beach, and 5kms to Nyali Centre. It is also 6kms to CBD Mombasa. You may order food delivery from nearby eateries such as Big Square, Pizza Inn/Chicken Inn and KFC. (download Bolt Food, or Glovo or Uber Food app to order food)
There is also a Pizza Inn/Chicken Inn is 30metres (1min walk) across the road so you can just walk to grab something to eat.
What makes this property unique
My apartment is unique because it is centrally located in Nyali. I have also made it a home away from home; and it is my "heaven"
