Description

The white sands of Watamu Bay and its crystal waters form Kenya's finest stretch of beach. Vasco de Gama passed this way and erected a tower on the headland to mark his progress. It is an area of great beauty and interest; there are coral reefs to marvel at, the ruins of ancient Gede to be explored, Marlin and Sailfish to be fought and, of course, Hemingways Resort in which to be indulged. There are 78 luxury bedrooms and suites within earshot of the surf, all having views of the activities of Hemingway's deep sea fishing fleet. There is also a bar dedicated to the master himself in which many a tale is told. And yet, as many who have been to the resort will tell you, one of the principal attractions is the food; it is inspired and ranks among the best in the world. Add to this, the impeccable service, the water sport and fitness facilities and the legion opportunities for big game safaris and you have all the ingredients for a memorable encounter with Africa.

The Best Day of My Life!!
By Lance P, 8/25/05
On the 11 Feb 1997 we were married at Turtle Bay but stayed at Hemingways. Truly one of the best privatley owned hotels in the world. From the moment we arrived we were treated as one of the family. Our room, a delux Ocean fronting, was covered in rose petals on the floor and heart shaped on all of the three large beds. Fresh flowers, fruit and Champagne also in the room made us feel very special. Each evening the fresh roses and poetry on our pillows was so romantic. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom was of a high standard and the veiws to die for.The general ambience of Hemingways must be a huge secret and only the staff have the knowledge to supply it, everyone from the gardeners, and their beutiful white smiles, to top Management greeted us as if we were family and maybe their only guest's. The food was fantastic from morning till night and again nothing was ever to much trouble. This was our second stay at Hemingways so we did have some inside knowledge of what to expect, but it is also the reason why I was searching the internet for Hemingways as I wish to take back my wife for our 10th Anniversary in 2007. Were else could I go? It just has to be Hemingways! This review is hard to write as we don't want to many people finding it, but we must not be selfish and if other couples experience what we did I'm sure they will write the same reveiws. I hope this gives you sufficient information and look forward to your reply. Regards, Lance Prince.
