Zahari Oceanfront is a small, modern boutique hotel right on the white sand of Msambweni Beach, on a quieter stretch of Kenya’s South Coast around 30 minutes’ drive from Diani. Every room and suite faces the Indian Ocean, and the infinity pool has its own bar in the water, so you needn’t climb out for a cocktail. At the Oceanview Restaurant, the menu runs from fresh seafood and grills to Swahili and Indian dishes, whilst the spa takes care of massages, scrubs and pedicures. It’s a calm, unhurried spot to do very little for a few days…
