Thanks! I've made a note of these ATMs for next time.

Equity ATMs have good rates.

I use the ATMs at the back of Cafeserie at City Mall. to find my free one.

The Diamond Trust Bank doesn't charge.

There is also a branch in Mtwapa Mall.
And the bank there on the upper floor also doesn't charge.

I use the ATMs at the back of Cafeserie at City Mall. There are 4 or 5 together. One of them gave me free withdrawals the others wanted to charge the 400/- but I can't remember which was which sorry. I just went down the line in them to find my free one.

Just be careful I would go to this branch only in Nyali. Sometimes it need 3 minute processing and you might think something wrong and your card is gone, I also saw blue screen and all of bizzar shit. So just go to this branch in Nyali mall.

Was in Diani just one night midweek.

Seems people go Manyatta club first, outside was busy at 11 pm but inside almost empty. People later move to Tandori down the road but never really gets busy there either.

I decided to just go home after a few beers, there was only three I likely across both bars and after speaking to them, two seemed too pro for me and the other had kids so I left it.

One of them did say to me 5 k for the night, I had a girl in Mombasa say the same, but when I say I will take their number and think about it they go straight down. This girl then said 3 k and then something like ' I want you to be happy, so you tell me', I'm sure many go home alone so they need a client. I wasn't interested so just went home after this.

I'm recently back from Mombasa.

I stayed at Cowrie on Bamburi beach, good location, not far to get a taxi to either Mtwappa or Nyali at night.

Cheers and Safari Inn are early spots in that area, then later around 11 pm people move to Causarina. Causarina on a weekend will be packed at midnight and there are enough options to find something you like.

In Nyali, Sheeba is closed which I visited last time, went Tapas once which is chill but no good options. I like it in Hypnotica, gets busy, though they tried to overcharge me and the twerking competition wasn't that good compared to last time I was here 2 years ago. Moonshine has live music on Sunday early evening, I was with a girl but didn't seem to be too many options. I think Mtwappa probably has the better options if you're out on your own and then go Nyali on dates, that was my strategy at least.

Jumeriah, AJ's and English point apparently have options but will be more expensive in those places.

I paid 1. 5-3 k depending on the girl and time. All but one I didn't discuss money and they were happy. Did meet one girl who asked if I could give her 5 k, so I said I would just take her number and then she straight away said could I do 3 k and she has a car, so we don't need taxis, so we went.

I've still never had a bad experience with a girl in Africa, but I find I don't often have amazing sex here either. Compared to my experiences in South America or North Africa, you will have bad experiences to work through but when it goes well the sex is much better in those destinations.

I'll definitely be back to East Africa though; nightlife is great and girls are always hassle free.

Also does anyone know what bank ATMs have no fees, last time I definitely found one but I tried maybe 3 different ones this time and all had $5 or 400 shilling withdrawal fee. Not much but I'd rather avoid it.

I spent one week in Nairobi took the the SGR to Mombasa for my 2 week trip to Mtwapa I love the training very relaxing. I stay at Prime comfort hotel and Apartments I was very happy there breakfast was include I paid 3500 a night since the dollars is strong now when I pay my credit card I always paid in shillings so 3500 is the same as 31.50 dollars with a nice breakfast and a big Apartments and the air con work I will stay there again. I was in Mtwapa during the curfew I just focus on online girls I was very happy with the girls I met. The hotel had a nice club called Pinnacle bar and grill they were able to stay open after the curfew so a lot of would show up after the other bars had to closed.

Am staying in Bamburi starting from 23 Nov. Initially planned to stay at Big Tree but they've no AC rooms available on my arrival date. Yeah I know it's easy to get used to the heat, but after a long flight I prefer AC for a couple of days.

Could someone recommend accommodation near Pirates beach in 40-70 USD range?

Sai Rock apartments have AC, 100 yards north of Big Tree. Mosque over the road calls out at 6 am but couldn't wake me up, get a bit of noise from Cheers next door, some people complain of them.

Indiana hotel have AC too further up the beach.

Both GF and safe.

Could look at Kahama as well.

If you want more info pn these let me know.

I know Amazing GF girl in Mombasa she don't care LT / ST give her 1500 bob per day and she will stay with you around the clock. Super calm personality and below zero risk.

Now take hotel on bambury beach and stay with her a week or two far away from the shit in Mtwapa. It is an option. I can send her WhatsApp.

She is 22. No kids.

Am interested. Would love to contact her.

with a mosque at a few meters distance on one side and the new club on the other side.

You want quit? Mtwapa is the worst place in the world for peaceful life. For building there are no laws what so ever. Just go to see the new section of Merry* Villa it touch the road, and the distance to the Mtwapa palms hotel is one meter. You can't sleep at night as they put the TV loud all night just next to you ears. The construction noise is non stop and can disturb a dead person.

But why you mention noise in Mtwapa? Its like saying that Dubai / Toliara residents will suffer sand storms and it may get cold in Bogota.

[Zimzam]

It seems that Club Legend in Mtwapa had closed for now.

The American guy has gone.

Meanwhile the manager of Zodiac is building a nicely decorated kind of beergarden along the circle road behind Jambo Travellers hotel, just next to Mtwapa Luxury Apartments.

I don't know if the luxurious habitants will be so happy now, with a mosque at a few meters distance on one side and the new club on the other side.

I was in Shanu two weeks ago and I paid 3-4 K for LT girls from Tinder.

Girls price in Mtwapa is 1 K to 1.2.

The Israelis around catolic church / Bakary never pay more the 1 K. And the girls are not from Tinder, even not one.

[Jersey86]

I was in Mombasa two years ago, back then I was paying 3 k for LT, mainly girls from Tinder. Should I expect to be paying anymore this time?
