Could it be the hotels are looking to renovate through insurance compensation?

Two more adjacent hotels also caught fire, Ziwa Beach hotel, and bamburi Beach apartments…

Moto not the issue as of now.
Start or look for building codes, zoning, infastucture etc. Fire preventive and maintance measures cames at end tail

Ni ukweli bana, beaches are public areas that should be opened up to locals. Except in military or important government facilities.

Fire Safety is neglected. I just thought about it and noted I dont have any fire fighting gear in my house. Nani hapa yuko nazo?
…Hehe, the fire department, shares a huuuuuge border with Indian Ocean
Beach hazijafungwa, it’s the access routes, from pirates the next place you can access the beach is at dolphin

Mombasa beach area is a unic area to build a tourist infastrure. A kin beach land developer has what you Tarpology in mind. Makutu fits well around(landscape) coastal area.
Wind is a part of the area equation. make no mistake about.
