Just a 10-minute walk from the Likoni Ferry. Stay at Dune View Hotel on Jomo Kenyatta Avenue and enjoy easy access to Diani Beach, Shimba Hills, and the South Coast.
The Likoni Ferry is the gateway between Mombasa Island and Kenya’s stunning South Coast. Staying near the ferry puts you at the crossroads of adventure.
The Mombasa Ferry connects Mombasa Island to the South Coast, providing the most direct route to some of Kenya’s most beautiful destinations. The ferry operates continuously throughout the day and night, transporting both pedestrians and vehicles across the Likoni Channel.
For pedestrians, the crossing costs just 20 KES — one of the most affordable transport experiences in Kenya. Vehicle crossing fees vary depending on the size of the vehicle.
Whether you’re arriving in Mombasa and heading south, or returning from the coast and need a comfortable place to rest before your flight or train, Dune View Hotel is the perfect transit accommodation.
Our location on Jomo Kenyatta Avenue offers the best of both worlds:
Instead of staying far from the city center and paying for daily transport, base yourself at Dune View Hotel and explore everything Mombasa has to offer on foot or with minimal transport costs.
Just 30 km south of the ferry, Diani Beach is consistently ranked among Africa's best beaches. White sand, turquoise water, water sports, and beachfront dining await.
Kenya's only coastal rainforest national reserve. Home to elephants, sable antelope, and over 100 bird species. A perfect day trip from Mombasa.
Take a dhow to this car-free island for dolphin watching, snorkeling in the Kisite Marine Park, and fresh Swahili seafood lunches.
A quieter, more secluded beach experience compared to Diani. Perfect for travelers seeking tranquility and natural beauty.
Pristine coastline with excellent resorts, water sports, and a more relaxed atmosphere than the busier Diani Beach area.
