Surprisingly there are almost 50 rooms on the tiny island, ranging from semi-circular rooms with verandas, to traditional thatched bandas with private lawns, and Penthouse Suites swaying high above the treetops. There's also an Over Water Bungalow (the only one in Kenya!) and our favourite, the Suite on the Rock, built on its very own rocky outcrop and connected to the mainland by a bridge. All rooms have air-conditioning, en-suite bathrooms and all-important sea views.
Chale Island Resort can be booked with Timbuktu as part of a tailor-made Kenya trip, rather than as a standalone room reservation.

Stays at Chale Island Resort start from around $220, or US$220, per person per night as part of a tailor-made trip. The exact price depends on your travel dates, room type and the shape of the rest of your itinerary. A Timbuktu travel specialist can give you an accurate quote for your dates.
