About

The rooms are large with ocean views from everywhere, and the beach is peaceful with mostly just locals doing morning jogs or watching the sunset. It's private and intimate if you want a getaway, though be aware of mixed local community relations.

    A great public beach that's more like private. Only a few locals prefer to have a swim in the morning after their jogs or seat at the shores in the evening as they watch the sunset.

    To be quite honest I loved being in Kenya in 1999 I stayed in Shelly beach and Mombasa was lovely place to have been to celebrate New Years eve going into 2001 beautiful and very religious I miss that but all in all what a beautiful experience I had. Christine Sandell.

    This place is super amazing with a serene and peaceful atmosphere away from the usual busy city. The rooms are large with an excellent view of the ocean from every part of the room. Very private and intimate if you are looking for a getaway! A must try for all who haven't been here!

    The owner of tijara beach is extremely hostile to the poor local people, he does not want to see them near his property he sometimes arrests them and sends them to jail for no reason so that they stay away from his property

    Dear Ian & Larissa What a wonderful stay we had. Just about everything at Tijara contrived to be so good for the soul. So very many thanks to you both and all your staff for the T.L.C. We are already suffering acute withdrawal symptoms. Chris and Ria
