Southern Palms Hotel, Kenya

The magnificent free-form swimming pools at Southern Palms are the star turns at this modern hotel. Around its azure waters, you'll find a bar and a restaurant cleverly tucked under two Arabic-style white domes. At night the domes are illuminated and cast romantic reflections on the water. The Swahili/Arabic culture of the Kenyan coast influenced not just the architect but the person who fashioned the attractive woodwork and furniture in your room.
