South Coast hoteliers say unfazed by Brexit

A section of hoteliers in Kwale County have said Britain’s exit from the European Union (EU) will not affect tourist arrivals into South Coast.

They say numbers are unlikely to fall because most of the region’s market depends on Germans and Italians. Swahili Beach Resort General Manager Jeff Mukolwe says since Kenya faced some insecurity challenges three years ago, the British market had nearly collapsed and most hoteliers now depend on German and Italian markets.
