How much money would be recommended?

Answer 1

we were at the sister hotel to the flamingo called shanzu paradise last november, the hotels are on the same complex owned by african safari club, the food was diabolical, the room was awful, and if you wanted a sunbed and beach towel, the hotel charged £1 for each, we moved out after 1 night and paid £50 a couple to move into travellers beach at bamburi (all inclusive) it was well worth the money, so if you need to do the same, just wheel your cases out of the complex,get your own taxi outside, and tell him to take you to the travellers, it will cost approx 400 kenyan shillings for the taxi, the outside taxis are not allowed in the asc complex. the person who said you lose your money when you leave kenya is talking nonsense, we have been to mombasa many times. if you need any more information , just put message on here, by the way, we are going to bamburi beach hotel in october, arriving on the7th, we would not go back to asc for free, at the moment they are advertising flamingo 2 weeks full board for £349. they can keep it.

Answer 2

$300 dollars per day inclusive of everything i.e accomodation,meals and a bit of entertainment

Answer 3

don't take too much, they make you hand over all you have left before you leave.

Answer 4

don't limit yourself too much. u can use the safe in your room. but don't carry along all your cash though. about usd350 per day is ok
