“The first lacto-ovo vegetarian beach resort on the Kenyan Coastline offers something different with its focus on wellness, meeting rooms, and beachfront location; the pool and the private beach access are definite pluses. If you are seeking a serene, budget-friendly getaway with friends or family, especially for church camps or wellness retreats, this could be a good fit. Despite some reported maintenance issues, the location remains a draw.”
