Kinondo Kwetu Resort

Overview

One of Kenya’s most compelling boutique resorts, Kinondo Kwetu is situated on the end of Galu Beach, south of the Diani beach, offering travelers a picturesque spot to enjoy the ocean and a tranquil getaway.
Because the lodge struggled with grid reliability and instability throughout 2019, the resort used a diesel generator to supplement their energy temporarily. An off- grid solar system came as a welcome solution for this property that aims to provide sophisticated sustainability and reliability for all of its guests.
