    I stayed at Aberdare Cottages in the Lake Elementaita room, and it was such a lovely experience. The room was spacious, spotless, and all the appliances worked perfectly, which made the stay super comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout. My biggest highlight was that they prepared fresh, baby-friendly meals for my 7-month-old, such a thoughtful touch that made my stay feel even more special. Overall, a peaceful, family-friendly place with genuine hospitality. I’d definitely go back!

    had a wonderful stay at Aberdare Cottages. The environment is peaceful with beautiful gardens that make it a perfect place to relax. The rooms were very clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff were warm, helpful, and went the extra mile to make sure I felt at home – small touches like cleaning my shoes and serving a hearty breakfast really stood out.
