Great hidden gem with really grand villas each with a pool & a Jacuzzi at the top. You get to live how you’d wish to live for a couple of days. They also have a tennis court in the compound and serve great meals.

The villas are lovely and the private plunge pool and jacuzzi were a real highlight—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. The staff were generally very helpful and friendly. On the first day, there was a hiccup where specific dietary requirements for members of the group, which had been communicated in advance, were unfortunately overlooked. However, the team handled it well and completely made up for it during dinner that evening and breakfast the next day. The manager was especially helpful and ensured everything was sorted promptly. One downside is the road Google Maps directs you through—it’s in very poor condition and can be quite challenging, so plan accordingly. Overall, a lovely place to stay with great service and beautiful grounds.would definitely recommend, just be mindful of the access road.

Not a good experience. No hot water in the shower after the 1st guest showered. Hot tub is advised as rooftop and open until 10. You have to reserve a tine. At noon at check in we reserved a 9 pm time, confirmed the time before dinner with front desk worker Lizzy.Hot tub was half filled & cold at 9. Also we asked for a luggage pickup at checkout, Lizzy said ‘not possible the golf cart is broken’. So guests needed to walk from the villas with their luggage to lobby on a cobblestone street over quarter of a mile . Front desk service worker was not only not helpful but extremely rude. Restaurant workers were all excellent. All the other workers we encountered beyond the front desk were above average. Grounds, amenities & villas need updates & maintenance.

Great place to unwind and chill. Serene, good food and drinks. Ask for Edna for the Spa massage experience, horseback riding was awesome too.

First of all, the food was on point. My villa was good. The villa settings is most suitable for families. The place is big enough to have a morning walk or run and hit your target, in other words it huge! I walked from the restaurant to my villa late in the night (willingly coz I enjoyed it) peacefully. My room was spacious with a balcony. The roof top pool had heated water. Generally, I loved and enjoyed my stay at my villa. It's about 45 minutes from Nanyuki town...maybe because of the rough road...but that part of the experience.
