Bit dated feeling and clearly not as nice as its sister property in Nairobi. The staff were nice. Food was fine. A nice enough stay but not particularly memorable.

Such an authentic experience. The rooms and grounds are amazing and you feel right at home. You are completely shut off from the city in your own little sanctuary. The pool area is gorgeous and we loved watching the monkeys in the trees as we sunbathed. The staff are brilliant and so welcoming. Drinks at the restaurant were fab. We were upgraded to the main suite in the house as nobody else had booked which made our stay extra special. We can’t thank the team enough for such an unforgettable stay! Would definitely recommend staying here

Room was interesting, staffing was minimal. This is an experience property. Not suited to business travel. Would work well for a holiday African experience seeking traveller. Monkeys and all
