The fish curry with naan here is the best some guests have had, period — ask Charles for his recommendation. Liz, Boniface, and the team are attentive hosts, the rooftop breakfast view over the water is stunning, and the rooms have swinging day beds. A few minutes' walk to Shela's cafes and shops, 15 to good swimming.

An intimate, all-suite boutique hotel in Karen with four-poster beds and Out of Africa ambiance. At $350 for a Deluxe Suite, Hemingways offers genuine luxury — but Karen's isolation is the trade-off.
