Looking for last minute sunshine in June or July? Take advantage of this irresistible offer for 5 nights for the price of 3 (and 3 nights for the price of 2) at Mswambweni Beach House & Villas on Kenya's southern coast (http://www.farsideafrica.com/countries/kenya/south_coast.html#mswambweni).

This wonderful family-owned hideaway is one of the more luxurious options in this area, and enjoys a quiet, unspoilt setting with its own private stretch of beach.

Set high on a cliff, it has three master rooms and an ocean suite in the main house, and three private villas, as well as a fantastic 25 metre infinity pool. The emphasis at Msambweni House is on relaxation, reading by the pool or perhaps a long walk on the deserted beach and a dip in the sea. Snorkelling, deep sea fishing, trips to Kisite Marine Park (an excellent spot for snorkelling or diving with sea turtles), swimming with dolphins, golf, mountain biking, local safari and massages are also on offer. Can't you hear the waves lapping already?

Travel with Farside Africa (www.farsideafrica.com; 0131 315 2464) from £695 per person for 5 nights at Mswambweni Beach House & Villas including full-board accommodation, soft and selected alcoholic drinks, and a 30 minute massage. Valid for travel in June & July. Combine with safari in Kenya's Masai Mara, Amboseli or Samburu parks for a complete holiday.
