Mombasa Serena Beach Resort & Spa has won two awards. The hotel’s General Manager Tuva Mwahunga (pictured) said Mombasa Serena has outdone itself and scooped two internationally acclaimed awards.

The first award was conferred by Tripadvisor where the hotel was recognised as one of the best in business. Mr Marc Charron, President Tripadvisor for business and CEO, Mr Stephen Kaufer signed the congratulatory recognition certificate on behalf of Tripadvisor.
