I have always said that Big Tree is not for everybody. Apartments are simple, aircon is just in a few rooms, not all rooms have hot water. More hot water rooms than before though.

For me Big Tree has been many years choise for accommodation. There are nearby hotel Sheratton (yes, two t), that is more expensive but has higher standard rooms. Also Azul, but I liked Sheratton more. Remember book room for two.

Big Tree bar area has been improved lately a lot, by one Italian investor, it is better than before. And people have noticed, there are much more people in daytime and evening time than before. So there are more girls also. And there are shows in many days. Big Tree is a place to go at the moment.

What exactly are you trying to demonstrate with your post my man? I'm not sure I got it to be honest, are you saying that we should not go in Mtwapa? Are you sharing any kind of useful info with the forum users? Where exactly are we going here?

There is a very good feature on this forum. It's the "ignore" button.

Mwalimu.

Hey guys,

Any idea where is model type of girls? Maybe you can say me name of clubs or bars near Mombasa?

Define model type of girl? As there are different types of models.

In casaurina, I have been speaking with a girl who for me, could easily be a model, but a model in Africa, could be different from a model in Europe for example, what are you looking for?

My observation still is, you will find all type of shapes everywhere you go anyway, but big / round / large curves are usually very frequent (and I do not mean obese, I really mean strong & firm curves). There are some slims, not the majority from what I have seen.

I believe if you're ready to pay the european / foreigner price, you may find some "top model" girls on escort sites. I have only seen a few of these during my time there when I was moving around, very few.

This is my second adventure in the chocolate factory and, if you have traveled around the world for a while, by now we learned quickly what little there was to understand about this country. No choice was better than getting an apartment in Mtwapa. 1600 shillings for a nice large and clean apartment including Wi-Fi and cleaning, I could not ask for more. If I think that last year I got robbed by the big three I feel like slapping myself. The big tree as I see it today is truly a place for desperate losers. Rooms falling apart, neglect, bitchy maids, nine sunbeds on the beach, at least three of which are broken and with the mattresses gnawed by mice, 28 for a room infested with mosquitoes and with salt water, you have to be mongoloid morons to stay here. But right now next to me is a laid-back septuagenarian who is having lunch hand in hand with some kind of thing (a woman, perhaps) and so I can understand. Casaurina works well even if it only fills up on weekends with its usual review of cheap working girls, eagle best always full in the evening and perhaps the karaoke a little too intrusive but that's okay anyway. As far as prices are concerned, I don't find big differences and women cost based on where, how and when you met them, but this is a rule that applies everywhere in the world. Obviously I'm doing well by keeping foreigners away, Italians first, there are a couple who live permanently in Mtwapa and who feel they are the most beautiful and smart of all. Of course there is a reason why they ended up here where a person with a modicum of balance comes just to have fun and then goes home leaving it all behind. At Goldfidsh the chicken is always good and the employee nice, the gym behind the Kendas is ok, we are always in Mtwapa on the other hand. The model girls that someone asked for are instead found in the usual places where luxury working girls roam. I don't know, in my country there are millions of them and looking for them here makes me smile a little. No working girl will ever make me really happy in bed, that's their job, while I like beautiful women but with a normal life. Matter of taste. Tomorrow I start my English school, at least people will stop laughing when I speak.

I've been to the Big Tree 8 times and I really don't think I'm a loser.

It's a matter of your own expectations. If you don't like Big tree, go somewhere else.

But insulting people just because they're not like you sucks.

That guy in Goldfish terrace, I haven't seen him for a while. Christmas vacation in village?

In Cobacapana, be ready to wait for your food two hours minimum. I don't understand why it takes there always so long. Also, that beach works with mpesa, there is no change. Your bill is 950 but bar don't have that 50 shilling to pay back from 1000, that has happened couple of times. If you pay by cash they go somewhere to look for change, forr a long time.

I think Casourina is back for normal prizes, Christmas season s finished.

Goldfish guy, he did not go anywhere. He just moved to other side of the street because Goldfish manager lady did not want him there anymore. So he has hist own business space in other side of the Goldfish.

In the street level, on the front of the Eagle Nest, therre are many small restaurants and cafes. You can sit in one and order stuff from other one. So I have often drring beer in one, order chiecken from other, pojo from yet another and tea from yet another.

Goldfish manager lady seems to be tight ass, no more chicken to her bar, although that guy was before kind of working there

[Member #4828]

I ate there three times in October. It never took more than 30 minutes. And if I get a bill for 950 kes and pay with 1000 kes, then I certainly don't want any change back. We're talking about 40 cents. LOL.

At Oiste:

There is a good gym in the Posta, behind the Kendas Hotel. (From Kendas half way to the Country club then on the right side).

Thank you very much!!

If you mean local restaurants, a good one is the Zero-Five place along the tarmac road known as Beachway Road. Follow the left bend it's opposite the large Mango liquor store. They offer different kinds of grilled meat with chips or ugali. If you are lucky they have mutton.

The best grilled chicken is made by the guy who is grilling chicken on the Goldfish terrace.

And very fresh grilled fish in different places on the Cobacobana Beach (but not at the original Cobacobana restaurant).

If you want to economize on the cost of beer (which has reached 400 ksh now at Casuarina) try the dark Senator beer from the handpump operated kegs. Available on different places starting from around 50 ksh per glass.

According to the Nairobian newspaper Bamburi has taken over the title of "Sin City" from Mtwapa.

(See attached scans).

It's obvious that the author has never been to Vegas. Nothing in Africa will never even remotely resemble Vegas.

[Leblon]

That newspaper article about Bamburi. I don't know what are they talking about? Asian girls in Naivas places? What is that massage in beach, there is no beach in Bamburi commity. And not so much massage in Bamburi beach that it would be worth of mentioning. (notice that Bamburi beach is not in Bamburi community, confusing).

Some years ago I knew all the bars in Bamburi really well because I went there to see couple of waitresses, I was drinking with them (separately) in Bamburi bars. No success ever with them but it did not matter since I went to Casourina always after that.

I visited Bamburi bars again not so long time ago, seems to be same. There are no musungus there ever, there are local people in groups. I have heard also that that there are lot of Nairobi people now, locating to Bamburi on vacation.

In Bamburi there are no white people living, you don't see any walking in the street or in the bars, they are in Nyali and Mwtapa and Sanzu seaside. I would not want to live there either.

My personal opinion of the Bamburi bar scene is that it is boring and not worth of visiting. Those girls who looked pretty for me I knew already from somewhere else. If you want to see slim pretty Bamburi girls that are interested of musungu company go to Big Tree and Cheers, you find them there. Or casourina. Beach in front of Big Tree is good place to find Nairobi tourist girls or not so professional girls. Also by swimming there, in the sea, go to talk to girls.

In Bamburi public beach near by, Pirate beach, I have never managed to find anything although it is so crowded.

Very high prizes in Naivas bars. I know one girl that goes there and she has told me that some tourist guys or Diani guys are really paying her big money, suprisingly high, don't remember exact amounts. However with me she still goes for 2000 thousand shillings per night, in idle days.
