The whole ‘Whitesands Resort concept’ began in 1930 and the following is the chronology of what happened afterwards:
1930 - Mr. H G Robertson bought a new house with two bedrooms flanked by a long lounge. Robertson was working as an Editor of Mombasa Times, which grew into present day "Standard". He said he will call his new place Whitesands. Ali Bin Salim – The Liwali (Chief) gave Robertson a few more acres of land on the beach.
1941 - Mrs. Stocker bought ‘The Whitesands’ from Widow Robertson.
She built a larger Establishment of 8 cottages and Whitesands was open for business. Incidentally – the first business was from the Royal Navy a Brigade of enlisted lady Sailors known as WRENS, who were sent to assist in shore duties. A Phrase was coined at this time to describe Whitesands as WHITESANDS Waving Palms, Silverstrands, Luck, Love, Romance and Revelry.
1946 - Mrs. Stocker sold Whitesands to David Durwood Brown. He is credited with making Whitesands popular with the locals and it became known as the "PUB BY THE SEA".
1960 - Akberali Manzi bought Whitesands from Widow Stocker. Seventy new rooms were built, the central complex was reconstructed and a boat bar was introduced – later a bathing pool called ‘LIDO’ was added. Renovation went on and by 1976, the ‘Pub by the Sea’ was turned into a five star hotel.
1976 - Sarova Group of Hotels bought the Whitesands Hotel and set into motion ambitious development plans which changed the hotel from 70 rooms in 1976 to 173 and then to 340 by 1996.
