Diani golf club fees on multi-day packages
Holiday golfers who plan to play most days can buy a green fee package instead of paying Diani golf club fees round by round.

|---|---|---|---|
| 3 days | KSh12,700 | about KSh4,233 | $100 |
| 7 days | KSh29,650 | about KSh4,236 | $225 |
| 14 days | KSh59,250 | about KSh4,232 | $450 |
Each package works out at roughly KSh4,230 a day, about KSh1,370 less than the daily 18-hole fee. That is a saving of around 24% if you play every day. The page does not say how many rounds a day the package allows, so confirm before you buy.

- Couple: KSh186,800 is KSh33,200 less than two single memberships.
- Corporate: the minimum of four people means at least KSh330,000 a year, which suits firms that host clients at the coast.
