For the last 4-5 years, I've stayed at the Prestige Apartments. These are fully furnished 1 bdrm apts, with aircon and ceiling fans, electronic safes, 2 pools, 24 hr reception, security is very good, and any outside guests must have an ID to be allowed inside the property. I posted pics of my apt in my previous Kenya trip report. In addition, it is under ownership by an Indian-Muslim family, but they are very cool and treat me as family since I've been a returning customer. As such, there is no alcohol sold at the restaurant and none is allowed to be consumed in the pool areas. But there is no problem with purchasing from an outside store or shop and drinking inside your apt. There is also the Mona Lisa Hotel, which I haven't stayed at in about 5 years, Prime Comfort Apts, Jambo Travelers Hotel among others. You can find a list on Tripadvisor or just google "Mtwapa hotels and apts", and you'll find just about every accommodation available. On this last trip, Prestige gave me a rate for a 1 bdrm at 2500 shillings per night, which equaled roughly $21.50 USD per night. But this was pretty much the low season. It would be higher from about November through March or so. And if it's just a standard room you want, they expanded a few years ago by adding on two floors with just regular rooms, but all with tv, aircon, fan, room safe and double bed. Those run about 2,000 KES per night, or about $17 USD, in the low season. 3 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mr. Smooth Posted September 10, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 10, 2022 As the days passed, I settled in to a nice routine. Get cleaned up, out the gate of the complex only to be met by a couple boda boda drivers waiting to drop me off at a local coffee shop run by a German expat who had been living there for 12 years. When I told one guy where I was going, he asked, "the coffee shop across from the church?" I replied yes. He said, "Oh, you are going to see the c**t." I nearly fell off the bike. "So that is what you call him? A c**t?" The driver replied yes. From that day on, whenever he would roll up outside the gate of the apartment in the late morning to give me a ride, I would say, "I'm off to have coffee with the c**t." Nothing like starting the day off with a good laugh. A late afternoon swim might be on tap before going out to dinner and making the rounds of the local pubs. And along the paved back road that started and ended off the main highway about 500 yards apart, but which made an almost perfect three sided pathway, each close to a mile in length, there were about 35 pubs of various sizes lined along the roadside around the path. Some were in small clusters of 3 or 4, one next to the other. Some were more spread out, maybe at about a seventy-five yard interval, while still others were stand alone that might also include a small liquor store off to the side for take away customers. It was along these roadside pubs that one could stop in and have a nice chat with the locals, and maybe even get the number from a barmaid. I definitely added to my whatsapp contacts in this manner from several stops along the way in the evening. It was a totally different experience sitting with the locals, learning about their lives, paying their prices for a beer, all the while keeping one eye on the lady behind the pub, or maybe exchange a few words when coming over to clear a table of empty bottles and glasses or bring over a new round. In the evening, while a few local customers would be holding court, I would grab a seat outside at a plastic table and offer to buy a drink for the service girl when ordering and she would then sit down between checking on other customers, and we would have a nice chat. It would pay off by arranging plans to get together, sometimes after the pub closed but usually on a night off, or paying a visit to my apartment before she had to go to work. In a couple cases, the bars these girls worked at were not 50 feet apart, so I would play it off if one saw me from a distance, wave to them and motion that I was coming over soon. At an appointed time, security might knock on my door with a guest, and after exchanging pleasantries, would get into it. What would follow was a caressing of skin, a swirling of limbs, an exchange of fluids in which these young Kenyan ladies spared no effort to please me, enhancing an already well-deserved reputation of sexual performance as if it was their birth right. My final week was a whirlwind of desires fulfilled, of promises made and kept, and of a return next year that I assured each lady was imminent. They would all be sad at my departure, and I wasn't too thrilled either, knowing a 40 plus hour trip awaited me until I arrived back at my front door. But the memories of the time I'd spent with each of them would sustain me and make the long trip home just a little more tolerable. Kenya did not disappoint. In ten trips it never has. It's a beautiful place filled with friendly people eager to make your acquaintance, wanting to know about your country while being proud to show off theirs. The food, the beach, the music, the culture......the women. All plentiful and waiting for those who are ready to experience all of them. I've been enjoying this country for a decade with no plans to stop. And for anyone who is ready to step out of their comfort zone and experience something new, to allow themselves to fall prey to the charms and beauty of this African jewel, then I encourage those ready and willing, to do so. It's all good. Or, as the locals might say......"Hakuna Matata" 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maipenrai Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Thanks for the report, I've been interested in Kenya for a long time - probably since your first reports, not to mention enjoying the odd Kenyan "visitor" in Thailand myself on occasion; a long way to go for us North Americans but would appear to be well worth it. I look forward to hearing more of your adventures there when we meet up again in Pattaya this December... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpuynarak Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Great TR and pics MR.Smooth TFP. I had the pleasure of a holiday in Kenya back in the early 2000's, it was brill and the gals were fun and great company. I stayed in a hotel about 20 miles north along the coast from Mombassa, i think from memory it was called the Flamingo Hotel. I will never forget the stunning young Whitney Houston lookalike that looked after me. I would recco to any guy looking for a fun time with sassy gals. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was first deciding on what country in Africa to visit, the one factor that had to be a necessity, was that it be an English-speaking country. Besides Kenya, my other choice was Ghana. I've seen pics, read up on nightlife, accommodations, the beach areas (Labadi Beach I believe is the primary public beach in Accra), women, the cost, etc...and whenever it is that I decide to give West Africa a go, Ghana will more than likely be the destination. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfingboy Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 (edited) Great TR once again Eric. Sitting here getting shitfaced in Montreal since 5 PM. An African bank manager sat next to me, at about 6 PM and a stunner, an 11, bumped into me on the way to the terrace. Finally at 8 PM we’re both paying out tabs, I politely ask where everyone is from. She was from Senegal, I wanted to grab a snap but as pissed as I am I just wished them both a good evening. A freaking knockout…..No words Moral of my story…..African ladies SEVERELY underrated IMHO Edited September 15, 2022 by Golfingboy 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A deceased Welshmen who went by the nickname of "Bugle", due to a prominent nose, who I first met at the Shamrock Bar in Pattaya in the mid to late 90's, once told me that some years before, he worked for a French oil company as a foreman in the Nigerian Delta. The men working under him were all paid a $10 USD per diem "allowance" in addition to their salary. When he asked what that was for, the guy who was interviewing him said that he hoped he wouldn't be offended, but that the men on their off-duty time, were known to have a drink and "enjoy" themselves with the local lasses. Sure enough, when he told me how gorgeous some of these Nigerian women looked, he mentioned that even Naomie Campbell, who was probably the top black model then, couldn't even compare with many of them.

Jambo Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 I have never been to Africa. The closest I got was on a Company all expenses paid *"beno" to Spain via Gibraltar. Why we flew to Gibraltar will forever be a mystery. One of the optional trips was taking this ancient DC9 (?) over to Morocco to visit the Kasbah to buy overpriced carpets. A few of us more sensible types stayed behind to play the Spanish Hotel's own Golf course. 😄 *Cockney for "Piss Up" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
