    Lovely warm welcome from the owners, who were charming and interesting to chat to over dinner. Very caring when 2 of us felt ill. Interesting farm setting for our children to explore and a nice change from staying in a hotel or safari lodge. Handy for visit to Giraffe Centre.

    I had a very good time at Masai Lodge. the staff was really friendly and helpful. I have never experienced such nice employees anywhere: James, the reception and restaurant staff, the gardener and the security guards. My husband uses a wheelchair and they always helped us before we could even ask. Such wonderful people, a cozy room and really beautiful nature.
