August on the coast of Kenya brings us back to the scents of holiday, of nature to be enjoyed in all its forms, of sea breeze that creeps into the palm groves and green bush and moments of relaxation seasoned why not, from healthy fun and tasty food.
This has always been Watamu, for example, and even this year the splendid tourist resort would not have escaped the rule if the Covid-19 hadn't a little bit upset everything.
However, there is one of the enchanted places where you can dive into the "holiday dimension" or even escape for a weekend or even a day.
It is the Palm Garden, an elegant and informal garden, an oasis of serenity and pleasure among the "whispering palms" of Watamu, where emergency has become a virtue.
Totally adapted to the new guidelines for the Coronavirus pandemic, the Palm Garden has not lost its physiognomy of boutique hotel, meeting place and relaxation and well-kept restaurant.
For those who already know this little gem, the spaces have been redesigned to ensure not only the distance and intimacy that automatically means prevention, but also to improve the experience of your stay: in the comfortable and private verandas of the suites, for example, you can dine even after 7 p.m. with room service and the consequent personal use of alcohol (an excellent idea for a romantic night with delicious food and a bottle of wine, which in a normal restaurant you could not have), while during the day the so-called "Ristorantino" with the tables spaced out by the pool allows you to enjoy the common areas in great tranquility.
Speaking of relaxation, at the Palm Garden a new corner has been designed, under the refreshing makuti of a large gazebo, with yoga mattresses and a contemplation area, but also a great video to follow, for example, the Champions League matches.
At the Palm Garden, in order to guarantee the intimacy and to better manage the service of the "Ristorantino", reservations are required. Tel. 0703845153
