Monthly Rentals in Kabarnet

We stayed two nights at the chalet to go birding in the Lake Baringo area. Safe and tranquil spot with lots of birds, including a hornbill that visited our house both mornings that we were there. Kitchen is well-equipped but keep in mind that in Kenya it is common to have refrigerators unplugged until guests arrive so maybe don’t bring a ton of items that need to be refrigerated (we brought some and it was fine but we didn’t load up the fridge). The host would probably be happy to plug in the fridge if you communicate in advance that you will need it right away. The chalet was very clean, but living in the desert there will always be insects so be prepared for a couple harmless common wall spiders and a couple of their friends. There were mosquito nets for both beds. WiFi was excellent. Hot showers! The hosts will offer to arrange tours for you when you arrive which is nice but we politely declined this time. All in all the chalet was a great place for a self-drive birding stop.

We absolutely loved our stay at Koen’s from start to finish! Koen was one of the best Airbnb hosts we have ever had - incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate us during a very busy weekend and after we’d changed plans. The food was totally delicious and it was so nice to eat in the house which felt like home. We will be dreaming about the bread ! The view from the houses was absolutely spectacular and hard to put into words. Possibly the best view we have ever seen from any house - photos cannot possibly do it justice. The properties were all very spacious, especially the family house. We came to do some running and cycling, which was all superb. We enjoyed speaking to Koen about his impressive running career so much and found him very inspiring. We live in Kenya and have stayed in so many places. Would unreservedly recommend staying here compared to other local options. Thank you Koen, Florence and family for such a wonderful weekend.

Great home for a stop in Iten. A cozy house with functional amenities.
