About

Relaxed, rustic permanent tents, plus breakfast, dining, a bar & safari excursions.

Wake up in a canvas tent inside Nairobi National Park with coffee delivered to your door and monkeys overhead. The hot water bottles tucked into your bed at night are the kind of detail that makes this place feel like you're in the Mara, not 20 minutes from downtown.

    An incredible place to stay. The food and service are amazing, and the cabins are absolutely charming and comfortable. You can wake up in the morning to a pot of coffee delivered to your tent and watch monkeys in the trees above and butterflies all around you. It feels like a dream. We took a half day safari and saw hippos, giraffes, rhino, and many other wildlife, you can’t believe you’re a few miles from the city centre. I think this is one of the nicest places I have ever stayed.

    Lovely experience! Right in the heart of the park. Even as it rained, the atmosphere was magical and we could hear so many cool birds and creatures. The food was excellent and staff was so kind and gave us a first class hospitality experience. The hot water bottles in bed at night were the kind of attention to detail that blew me away. Would stay here again in a heart beat!

    A Porini group hotel with 9 tents around a central dining room and lounge tent. Lovely situation in a forest in Nairobi National Park. Food is good. Food allergies are catered for. Accommodation is very spacious, comfortable, clean and private. Staff are all friendly. They offer game drives in the park but we didn't use that facility as we had our own vehicle.

    What a fabulous surprise this was. An oasis on the edge of Nairobi. We stayed two nights, and were looked after so so well. The food was delicious and our lunch table was laid in a couple of different places under trees. Such a peaceful location. Daniel took us on drives and we saw an amazing number of animals. Many thanks to Poul and all his team.

    The staff are very friendly, good food. A very good place to unwind away from hustles and bustles of Nairobi. The tents are also classic fully equipped with all the amenities you need. George was also a very good waiter. Loved everything about this place. You actually feel like you are in The Mara. Great work!
