The Fort Jesus Museum is one example, and we recommend staying at the Sea Esta Suites as they are close to the museum.

Besides the crocodiles, the centre also has a botanical garden, offers horse and camel rides, and even has a snake park.

One of the most important benefits to staying in rental accommodation compared to hotels is the freedom that you have. It is like staying in your own home, and for a lot of people, being able to prepare and eat your own meals not only offers more opportunity to manage your allowance but can also help if you have any dietary requirements that may be hard to manage when eating out. A stay at the Tamarind Village Apartments, which offers an oven, microwave, stove, and fridge offers you the chance to know exactly what goes into your food, as well as being close to the Old Town in Mombasa, where you will find plenty of stalls and shops influenced by Portuguese, Asian and Arab culture, as evident in the choices of fruit and vegetables and spices on display. The Villa Ninety-Four – Home Away From Home accommodation has an ice maker, fridge, oven, microwave and a dining area, and is close to Biashara Street, where you will find stalls filled with kikois and khangas, as well as fresh locally sourced produce.
