The hosts are really kind, friendly and wishing to help on amy mattter. The pool is kept perfectly clean. The design all over the property is amazing. The breakfast and dinner we ordered were fresh and of best quality products. The location is really quiet, and nothing disturbs your sleep. We'll definitely choose this place if we come to Kenya again.

Best stay ever! We usually hesitate booking an accommodation that doesn’t have a lot of reviews and damn would we have missed out! This was the best accommodation we have ever been to! Stunning house and the loveliest service personnel. Everything was absolutely perfect. The only thing we regret is not staying longer. 12/10 would 100% book it again.
