Our Signature Crab: Three Must Try Dishes
From light and refreshing to rich and satisfying, we highlight the sweet, tender quality of fresh crab in dishes built around flavour and texture. Explore three of our absolute favourites.
Crab Mango Stack
The perfect pairing of sweet and savoury. Our Crab Mango Stack is a vibrant tower of tender, flaky crab meat, sweet mango, and cool avocado. It's a light, refreshing, and utterly irresistible.
Simple Boiled Crab
Tender, succulent, and full of flavour. Our Boiled Crab is the ultimate straightforward indulgence. Crack, dip in warm butter, and enjoy the freshest crab available. Perfect hot or cold
Soft Shell Crab Burger
The perfect harmony of crunch and flavour. A soft shell crab is fried and served on a homemade bun with Aioli Mayonnaise and a tangy Asian Coleslaw. A true seafood treat.
Most of our guests opt for full board, but half board is also available. Start your day with a selection of fresh juice, yogurt and fruit or indulge in a classic fry up. For lunch choose from the a la carte menu and in the evening we offer a 4 course menu, which changes every night based on what is fresh and in season.
Enjoy your meals served al fresco on the beach, at the kite chill lounge or in our dining room. All stays include complimentary afternoon tea/coffee and freshly baked cookies or cake.
In the evening guests gather round the bar or outside in our chill areas enjoying traditional Kenyan sundowners and bitings. Having recently revamped our cocktail menu, be sure to try one of our 5 Che Shale Special cocktails. Once the sun has gone down guests can choose to chill by the fire and enjoy the spectacular night sky which comes from being in a remote location or continue inside sharing stories with fellow guests.
