Kenya’s South Coast regained its dominance in hotel bed-night occupancy along the coastal beaches after three years of trailing its rivals on the back of increased tourism activity.

South Coast had 2.57 million bed nights or nights spent by total guests in a hotel last year, from 590,400 bed nights in 2024, says the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS).
