This is a excellent gateway spot from the hustle and bustle of Nairobi. Great and ambient scenery, wonderful staff, and fun activities to keep guests busy. Spacious and cosy rooms which are also family friendly. New units are ready for occupation. Access is a challenge if you have a small car, though this will change with the completion of Mutongoini road.

A place of serene tranquility, a perfect way to unwind from the bustle of the city. Vast nature perfectly landscaped to give you a peaceful atmosphere and beautiful ambience both at the same time. The service is soo personalized your every need is catered to...it feels like home. Beautiful living spaces that create thrill and a feel of relaxation. Perfection lives here.

The Last Village is halfway between Athi River, Mombasa Road and Joska, Kangundo Road, out there in the expansive plain with scattered households. From Kangundo Road, you drive through a rough road for about 10km or so ( just estimating from the length of the driver). From Mombasa Road, follow the newly tarnacked road from Kitengela Junction or from Devik. It's out there, in the middle of nowhere nestled among the scattered villagers. It's waaay out of your way in either direction and you have to purpose to go there to get there. Which is what makes it special. It gets you away from the hustle and bustle of your hectic daily life into an environment so serene you don waña leave. The pool, yes especially the pool, my favorite spot. It's thoroughly inviting and you will just want to dive in. Not a pool person? okay. The place is so expansive you will need guidance to know where to go. Make your choice. Zip lining? They got that too You got juniors, they can play ball, pool games or internet games all they want. And you, can sit by the pool and make your order. Your service person will be with you until your ticket (which you get at the entry) is signed when you are ready to leave. And like me, you will most likely be wanting to go back sooner than later

We had a Family day out here We enjoyed great service and meals. The platter fpr 10 and the kids platter was very nice. Customer service was top notch as they kept on checking if we are okay and satisfied We also had a Birthday surprise for our Dad and the team did a splendid job in celebrating and singing as they brought the cake. Day made! We are certain to visit again!

Spent Christmas holiday here with family it was a great 3 nights.I got great service from staff I interacted with. Asante sana to Felix for very good customer service, patience ,courteous and always very helpful ,great guy . Stanley at the pool is so so good with the kids this guy has so much energy and loves what he does,he is a happy soul one of the best staff here , the sip and paint guy very patient and polite . Waiters I interacted with were also very friendly and happy to serve, viona, Lawrence, achieng , Ruth ,Mitchell and Beverly all super good. I loved the fact that the owners dinned with the clients having the same food as the client was a very good gesture. Downside is the cold food and slow service when the place gets full hope you can improve on this,overall it is a good place and all the best in your expansion.
