The ensuing competition for numbers has seen hotels, especially those from the South Coast, introduce free transportation from the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) Miritini terminus and Moi International Airport to their premises. The hotels are, however, facing stiff competition from cottages and apartments charging relatively lower prices compared to renowned beach hotels. In Kwale County Kaskazi Beach Hotel is among the facilities which have introduced free transportation from both SGR Miritini terminus and Moi International Airport to the hotel. “As festive season kicks in, we have lined up different strategies to attract more domestic and international tourists. For instance we are ferrying our visitors from SGR to our hotel,” the hotel’s official Daniel Ogechi said.
