Millions for love: Kisumu's Acacia Hotel takes Valentine's Day to another level

It was branded A Night of Diamonds at the Presidential Suite. When Villa Rosa Kempinski pulled the Sh2.4 million one night Presidential suite offer for anyone daring enough, what a vibe it created.

The offer included a night in the Presidential suite, a butler (man servant), private chef, dinner serenade, champagne treat and Jacuzzi moments at the rooftop luxury spot, 40 bouquets of flowers, massage treatments and luxury diamond and sapphire jewelry.

The jewelry set was worth Sh1 million shillings.

This time round, Pulse has exclusively learned that new Kisumu spot Acacia Premier Hotel has planned for a Valentine’s Day to die for in a special package, a romantic treat that could feature a helicopter and a limo ride.

The unique offer will be an exclusive affair for a lucky couple that will also be expected to enjoy an exclusive lunch set at the picturesque Maboko Island in the Winam Gulf of Lake Victoria; with a yacht ride from the island to the hotel for a private dinner at the presidential suite.
