The Sands at Chale Island is a 5-star resort near Diani Beach. The resort boasts to be the only individual island resort in Kenya. Here, nature offers up a nice blend of natural features with a white sandy beach edged by coral reefs and a saltwater lake enclosed by a mangrove forest.

Accommodation

 

Rooms at the Sands at Chale Island are designed to blend in with nature. There are five room categories to cater to varying accommodation needs. The room categories are:

  1. Standard Rooms – 28 semi-circular rooms in a natural environment overlooking the ocean
  2. The Bandas – Swahili for ‘small houses’ the Bandas feature thatched roofs typical of Swahili architecture and have views of the ocean.
  3. Penthouse Suites – these suites are set high above the treetops giving the best views on the island. The suites feature a living area and an upstairs grotto with a Jacuzzi.
  4. Overwater Suites – These are water bandas supported above water.
