The Kenyan Coast
Situated on Diani Beach, 34 km south of Mombasa, Leopard Beach Resort enjoys prime position on one of the world's most stunning beaches. Tropical gardens drop onto the white sandy shores of the Indian Ocean below where waters are calm due to the coral barrier reef – a haven for divers. The in-house diving school is a PADI Center which offers a range of courses for adults and children as well as a host of water sports, including windsurfing, kite surfing, kayaking, pedelos and snorkelling, not to mention big game fishing beyond the reef and glass-bottom boats trips.
The resort offers a wide range of high quality accommodation, a choice of dining and entertainment venues – including the award winning 'Chui Grill', an Italian speciality restaurant, the Pool Bistro and Bar, and even an ice cream bar. The resort also boasts several bars including Marco's al fresco bar where a wonderful selection of cocktails can be enjoyed whilst overlooking the pool and ocean.
The Uzuri Spa and Fitness Forest offers a range of treatments and therapies as well as the fully equipped Afya gym. For the active, there are 2 floodlit tennis courts, a splendid 18-hole golf course next to the resort, and a full-time 'Animation Team' organising volleyball, water polo, table tennis, gymnastics and aerobics. Or simply spend the day by, or in, the magnificent pool. And just a few steps down from the pool are the white sands of Diani Beach, miles of unspoilt shoreline kissed by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean.
Dotted throughout the vast 28 acres of magnificent tropical gardens are 158 comfortable and welcoming rooms, suites, cottages and villas. The cottages have their own private gardens or patio, and the villas boast an extensive terrace area with sun loungers and facilities for outdoor dining.
Set in a peaceful corner of Leopard Beach Resort; The Residences is a distinctly up-market development of 16 fully serviced villas within 15 acres of tropical forest. The Residences offers four villa types - with private pools - each boasting a modern and spacious design, privacy and security, and a host of amenities that set a new benchmark for the region. The villa complex also features an Asian-fusion specialty restaurant - Lemongrass - with an adjoining Grasshopper cocktail bar overlooking a rock pool. Guests at the Residences also benefit from the excellent facilities and services of the adjoining resort.
For families, the Little Leopards Kid's Club is ideal for younger guests and the trained staff supervise soft play, bead-making and craftwork, movies, and even camel rides and treasure hunts on the beach. Interleading rooms are available on request.
