Leopard Beach Resort And Spa On Diani Beach: A Paradise For Divers And Beach Lovers Alike

Situated on Diani Beach, 34 km south of Kenya's bustling port of Mombasa, Leopard Beach Resort enjoys a 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.

Leopard Beach Resort offers a wide range of high-quality accommodations, a choice of dining and entertainment venues - including the award-winning 'Chui Grill' - as well as extensive sporting and leisure facilities ranging from diving to golf.

The resort's PADI 5-star Dive Centre provides a comprehensive range of courses and equipment for underwater exploration. Glass bottom boats take visitors to the nearby coral reef, while an adventure centre and deep sea fishing provide more land-based activities. All the while, guests can enjoy kayaking along miles of pristine coastline, exploring Fort Jesus or discovering the ancient Gedi Ruins. Alternatively, take a day trip to Shimba Hills National Reserve - one of the last remaining areas of coastal rainforest in Kenya.

Leopard Beach Resort and Spa is more than just a place to sleep and relax; it's an experience that will stay with you forevermore. Whether you're looking for ultimate luxury or a family-friendly getaway, the 158 rooms are superbly appointed and offer a range of amenities. From Diani Beach chalets to suites with private plunge pools, guests can choose the style and ambience that suits them best.
