When our slogan “Discover the spirit!” was born, we meant to build up a hotel where people love to spend their holidays. A resort where guests can laze away the day on the beach or go on thrilling safari trip into the surrounding nature. Our aim was to deliver the “spirit” of Kenya.

Today, I may proudly say: We achieved a lot more. “Discover the spirit” has turned into more than a simple slogan. It is the feeling of happiness in the hotel, the true Kenyan smiles you see here everyday — A spirit of friendship, of collegiality and a sense of responsibility and respect for each other.

It became an atmosphere of love and enthusiastic effort that flows into Temple Point Resort each day.

Last but not least we managed to build up a high class accommodation, but the thing that transformed it into a paradisiacal holiday destination are the people who live and work at this unique place, making you feel at home.

Let us invite you to discover this special spirit that you can’t find anywhere else in Kenya’s other resorts!

Temple Point Resort is located in Watamu Marine National Park at the junction of the Mida Creek and Indian Ocean. Overlooking a coral reef and its own private beach, it offers traditional Swahili-style rooms.

All of the air-conditioned rooms at Temple include a modern bathroom. There are views of the Indian Ocean, Mida Creek or lush tropical gardens from a patio or balcony.

A la carte or buffet-style African and international cuisine is provided at Temple Point’s Clubhouse Restaurant. Panoramic views of Mida Creek can be enjoyed at the bar, which serves cocktails.

Relax by the elegant pool surrounded by sun loungers or enjoy a massage or hot tub session at the spa and wellness centre. Many sports activities or excursions can be arranged by the tour desk or animation team.

Watamu is situated 5 minutes’ by car, and contains many shops, restaurants and bars. The Ruins of Gedi are 15 km and an airport shuttle is available for Mombasa or Malindi Airport for a surcharge.
