This is a very unique place in a fantastic location. Truly magnificent views, nature-harmonised architecture and excellent food. And there is a waterfall just outside of the property, making this place truly one of the kind. Stuff is great and accomodating to your extra needs - i.e laundry (extra charged), breakfast times and late check in. By far, my favourite place in Nairobi!

I liked the pool, the breakfast on the terrace and the relaxing environment. The place is very clean. Standard room are very nice, but budget room is very small and the showers is bad. Some members of the staff are extremely nice, like Susan, others make trubles... Overall in a good place to stay, we spent 2 weeks and the location was good for us because we needed to travel to magadi everyday.
