Coastal Real Estate in Kenya

What is for sale on the Kenya coast right now, what each stretch of coast is good for, and how to compare a plot with an apartment before you commit.

Coastal Real Estate in Kenya

Real estate on the Kenya coast is three markets in one: Mombasa city and Nyali; the north coast through Shanzu, Mtwapa and Kikambala into Kilifi County; and the south coast in Kwale. Enclave Real Estate works across all three from its base in Nyali, Mombasa, covering development, estates, commercial leasing, brokerage, valuation, survey, property management and launch media. Since 2016.

This page is the map: what is for sale now, what is coming, what has been completed, and what each part of the coast is good for. Every price here is the one published on the listing.

The north coast: Shanzu, Mtwapa, Kikambala, Kilifi

North of the city the market is land-led. Shanzu has the sold-out Lillywhites Shanzu estate and the current Enclave Estates. Kikambala has Sea Breeze Estate on the beach. Mtwapa Creek has Moorings Residence, positioned for the new highway access. Bofa in Kilifi has the five-bedroom villas of the Kilifi Bofa Project.

The south coast: Kwale

Villa Kalista at Kaya Kinondo: three-bedroom villas set between the Indian Ocean and the Kaya Kinondo forest. Sold, and kept as portfolio proof of what the south coast can carry.

Commercial and retail

Nyali Bazaar reached 100% tenant bookings before completion. Greenwood Village is a retail village in Old Nyali set in a 2,000-home catchment. Likoni Mall is a completed leasing project. Landlords and tenants start at commercial leasing.

How to compare a plot with an apartment

  • A plot is land first, build later: more control over the final home, but construction planning, build cost and project management sit with you.
  • An apartment is a managed path: choose a unit, furnish it, use it, rent it, or hold it.
  • Decide the job the property must do before you compare prices. Buying for income, lifestyle, or both on the Kenya coast walks through it.
