The place was true luxury. Great service, super soft white sheets on a comfortable bed. Excellent staff who went above and beyond to make me feel at home. Antonina really knows how to make you feel like you are at your home away from home! I will be back with my family!

Bonnie went to great lengths to ensure our comfort during our stay. He was especially helpful when some of my family members fell ill and even made sure to regularly check in on us. The apartment was very clean, well decorated and spacious, with good wifi, TV (and streaming services), washing machine, and kitchen facilities. There are several popular eateries, pharmacies and a supermarket within walking distance from the apartment complex.

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.
