Location
Waterside Villa is situated in Tiwi on a cliff top right on
the Indian Ocean just 14 kilometres south of Mombasa in Kenya,
and three kilometres off the main Kenya/Tanzania road.
There are air links from the local Ukunda airstrip to all other major
parks in Kenya. Mainly to the famed Maasai Mara, a mere one and a half
hour flight.
In addition, the marine parks of Shimoni and Kisite are less than half
an hour away by car.
Tanzania is only a one hour drive down a sealed bitumen road.
Mombasa is serviced by Moi International airport and the town itself has
just recently achieved city status. Almost anything can be bought or
made in this thriving, historically important old Swahili town.
Mombasa has a rail link to Nairobi, Uganda and soon to southern Sudan.
A cruise ship operates regularly to Zanzibar and the other Spice Isles.
