From Diani Airport to Trish House
The villas are located within the Sands at Nomad property, so the journey begins just like getting to the main resort. Upon exiting Diani Airport, head north on Diani Beach Road. Follow the road for about 5-10 minutes as you pass by local shops and restaurants. Keep an eye out for signs to Sands at Nomad, as the villas are part of the resort complex. Upon arrival, the resort staff will guide you to your private villa, where you'll be welcomed with a more secluded, intimate atmosphere. The entire drive takes approximately 10 minutes.
From Mombasa Town to Trish House:
From Mombasa Town, you’ll take the Mombasa-Kwale Road (A14) south, passing through the Nyali Bridge and continuing toward Diani. After crossing the Likoni Ferry, drive along the Diani Beach Road for about 30-40 minutes until you reach the Diani Beach area. Sands at Nomad is located along this road, and once you arrive, the villas are within the resort. The private villas are tucked in a more secluded part of the resort, offering privacy and exclusivity, but they are still easily accessible. The entire trip typically takes around 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on traffic. The resort staff will direct you to the villas upon your arrival.
