NGong,

That sounds exactly like something I'll do.

It would be great if I can find a trusty driver too. A local who doesn't mind and welcomes our hobby. That will make it more efficient.

I will let you know.

Thank you.

Brasil.

Car hire is 3000. 5000 ksh for a day with transport you can go to the small towns round MB and sleep in local hotels.

When you take the road to Voi and go of the main road and want to hunt look for a target and ask of they can help you.

Special in the rual area is it a good hunting they are always ready to asist you special when you are a muzungu (white man).

Special in the area a 20 km from town is it easy to find a good and cheap target.

Most of the time when they ask you for a soda it is a easy way to get what you want with a soda and a lunch you invite to make a trip andth rest is how you want to do it. You have your fun and not a pro.

Mickeynator,

Thank you for that. I just called and reserved.

The guy who sounded like a local haphazardly took my first and last name only and honestly I am not sure if he even spelled it right. LOL.

I'll just have to have faith and hope I'll have a room when I get there.

Apart from the numbers on the website, there is another number on their facebook-page.

SteveGerman. Luck apartment is not a 'few bucks more' it's triple the price of Hibiscus (11 USD vs about 35 USD per night).

I would check out Tamu Tamu as well. They were pretty good and give good rates if you stay the week. Great location!

BrasilSoccer0. See my responses inline below.

KG,

- Why did U-turn down the phone ladies invitations? I ask cause it would be something I will jump on since I am mainly there for NON-Pros. Any warnings I should know as a newbie about cellphone company reps! [i][b]I prefer pros. You pay and you have fun. If you go for non-pro then there is all sorts of additional emotional baggage, buying them stuff, trying to get rid of them, etc...

Gents,

It seems Hibiskus Lodge hasn't updated their phones on their website. And you can't reserve from the website!

I need to call them to make reservations. Someone please pm me their number.

NGon, thanks for the info.

Been reading ten pages back and so far my concern is with long term stay and cost of lodging...

The garden of Hibiscus is nice; the equipement of the Luck Apartments much better; only a few bucks more.

KG,

Nice and informative report for a newbie like myself planing a trip in 7 gays.

Got a couple of questions for you based on your report if you be generous to help with;

- Why did U-turn down the phone ladies invitations? I ask cause it would be something I will jump on since I am mainly there for NON-Pros. Any warnings I should know as a newbie about cellphone company reps!

- You paid 1500 Ksh from airport to Kerstin's? Or to where? Also I will have one suitcase, you think the airport shuttle to town can accommodate? Which is more comfortable?

- You said you paid the girls from (Casaurina) 1500 for long time. How many hours was the long time? Where they all WGs? Can you find non-pros in Casaurina for 1000-1500 Ksh for a 12 hr term?

- The Hibiscus lodge seems like a great deal to me. Just checked their website. Any issues with the facilities or staff you had? What was missing; safe, A / see or fan? Any theft issues?

Gracias.

After mongering in about 20 countries, I finally decided to go to Mombasa to see if I can find me a new Pattaya! Kenya is talked about so much that I changed my flights to Tanzania to spend time there. I wanted to add my contribution to this website. So I have created a map of the mtwapa town and details about the various accommodations, clubs. Unfortunately for me, Mombasa was a very very distant runner up from Pattaya but I would say a place I am glad I went to. I have now concluded that Pattaya is an anomaly and there can be nowhere that even comes close to it. Just have to accept that fact and move on.

Transport.

========

Landed in Mombasa intl airport and took the taxi from there. Was charge 1500ksh. As already mentioned, there is also a shuttle to mombasa town for 100 ksh; and from there I suppose you can get a shuttle bus to Mtwapa for 70ksh. These are not great if you have any luggage, and eventhough I did not have much I decided to take the taxi. Mtwapa is a fair way away from the airport. I wanted to visit Diani Beach also but it's 70km away from Mtwapa I think.

As soon as I got there I got me a local SIM for 80ksh + 40ksh credit. The phone girls immediately gave me there numbers and wanted to meet me after work for dinner / drinks. Yeah right! As if I would.

I visited Bamburi Beach a few times but it was quite dead and boring. I went to Casablanca / Casanova but it too was dead (I was there quite early. Left before 8pm on Sunday).

Venues.

=======

Low season is a real bummer as the place is literally dead. I think I might have seen about 4-5 mongers in the week I was there. Casaurina was definitely empty all the time except after 11pm. I went past it at all hours and it was completely empty besides after 11 on some days. Beers are quite expensive in these places, relatively speaking, at about 190-200ksh / large bottle.

Ladies.

======

It was quite easy to meet ladies. They are quite attractive and they dance. Which really is a turn on for me (unlike Ethiopia where they just stand around). I was paying around 1000-1200KSH (all from Casaurina) for long time but ended up giving them 1500ksh. When I was in Casablanca the ladies told me they hate Mtwapa, and especially Casaurina and that the women from mtwapa sleep with dogs (animals) for money. Literally. The girls in Casablanca told me they charge $100USD / hour to the stupid seamen that come in all the time. Anyway, I was happy with the service I got from the ladies. I don't have any crazy demands. Just a good GFE.

Conclusion.

=========

I was meant to be there for almost 20 days but cut it short to just a week. I got really bored. I found myself just taking a mutatu (shared van) everyday into town for the sake of it! There was nothing to do during the day. I checked out several of the places. Cheers, big tree, etc and they were all dead! The accommodation options are MISERABLE! No TV, internet, etc in most hotels and the rooms are just really tooo basic for my liking. Mosquito biting like never before. I suppose I was not drinking much (unlike Pattaya where I drink loads) so that might have contributed to me not enjoying the place as much. Seawater must have been cold cause I never saw anyone swimming.

The roads in mtwapa (besides the highway) are all mud roads and there are gigantic potholes full of rainwater, rocks, cars, jeeps, bikes, dogs, kids. And a 10 minute walk feels like an hour! It was really annoying that they haven't cemented the road.

I felt safe walking around and back to my hotel even at 3am (20 minute walk from casarunia). I never felt any danger, annoyance and nobody hassled me at all. Well besides the girls in the club. They just would not leave me alone eventhough I told them they are not my type, etc. As I was pretty much one of the few foreigners, they were just clinging on to dear life.

I personally did not like Mtwapa but I am glad I did it just for knowing it and that I have done it. The prices were great, the girls were horny as hell. I had fun when I was having fun. Except when my condom broke. Twice! With different girls. Rough sex!

The food in all of Mombasa / Mtwapa is CRAP. Oily, fatty, salty and limited choice.

I have attached a map of mtwapa town and shown the various accommodation options. I was staying at Hibiskus lodge and think it good value for 1000ksh. I intended to move out after the first day but I ended up staying there the whole time. Kendas Hotel is well located, etc but the potential for loud music playing till 5am put me off.

Been reading ten pages back and so far my concern is with long term stay and cost of lodging:

-Where is a good source of info on local apartments rentals? All I keep getting on google are fancy and nice villas. I like but even the weekly rate ($550) is out of my budget.

- Are any of the beach hotels open for a better monthly rate?

- I am arriving in less than a week and will tentatively stay at the "Hibiscus Lodge" from KuteGuy report. I know some described it as shithole but it'll be a temporary stay till I find something better in person when I get there. I also am soliciting the help of local girls I met online and a couple seem eager.

NGong,

Please tell me which small cities you had great luck with. Also, I am planing my very first trip to Kenya and will arrive directly to Mombasa, I been having good luck so far on dating websites. Can you recommen a small town with few tourists close to Mombasa?

Brasil when you arrived in Kenya hire a car 4 wheel drive and go around but not to the welknow area's but in Mombassa to Voi and underway you past small wvillages. Be not afraid to stop when you see a target but used the real way.

Willyboy I never pay more than 1000/2000 Ksh but not in Mombassa / Nairobbi but in the small city's book a hotel in small city where the tourist onle passed and have a good time. I.

It is my place for fun and I get always what I want.

And make a clear situation that it's possible to change the girl; in some other hotels.

I heard if she's checked in; then she's the only one; f. E. Indiana Beach.

Cheers

Hi. I have stayed several times in the Severin Hotel on business and leasure. I made my reservations directly by e-mail. No problem. The hotel is good...

Carlos I was asking about that and was told that I can bring a girl but have to pay for her the full room charge.

How much was the joiner fee for your girls?

[Irony Monger]

Hi. I have stayed several times in the Severin Hotel on business and leasure.As a monger they will give you a room in the side buidling and not in the main building. That is good, nobody will disturb you and you will not disturb others.

The Severin is an upscale beach hotel, maybe 4 stars or so, comfortable, clean, good food, but is more family oriented than GF. However, you should be ok in that environment if you and your temp GF are reasonably discreet.

Thanks Carlos and Lusty! Just what I needed. I will likely stay at the Severin, as I can be discrete when the occasion calls for it, and for this trip a quiet retreat with nice accomodations where I can shag a bit on the side is just what the doctor ordered. I will likely go for one of the bungalos away from the main building to increase privacy a bit.

I'll post a review of the resort with pics and GF details when I return.

Thanks Zimzam for the clip.

I didn't know Bahnhof has strippers.
