Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Karen

We had a wonderful stay at this cosy and spotless family home. From the moment we arrived, Jue made us feel incredibly welcome, even going so far as to cook a meal for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Nairobi with plenty of great amenities within walking distance. The security guards were also very friendly and helpful, adding to the overall sense of comfort and ease. This truly felt like a home away from home, perfect for our little family. This is what Airbnb should be about! Highly recommended!

It was awesome

My family and I had an amazing stay at Agnes and Jeremiah’s place! From booking to checkout, they were super friendly, responsive, and full of helpful tips that made our trip smooth. The house was spotless, beautifully presented, and full of charm,truly a home away from home. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook comfortably, and every detail was thoughtfully covered. The location was perfect,safe, peaceful, and close to Nairobi National Park, the Giraffe Centre, and shops. Our kids loved the toys, books, and games, which kept them happily entertained. Mark the caretaker was fantastic, always helpful and quick to respond and the housekeeper did an amazing job keeping everything spotless. This was easily one of our best Airbnb experiences. We didn’t want to leave and are already planning to return! Highly recommended to anyone looking for comfort, warmth, and a memorable stay.

A Hidden Gem in Karen – Full of Charm and Exceptional Hospitality. Our stay at Amani House was nothing short of memorable. Nestled in the peaceful, leafy neighborhood of Karen, the property is full of charm and character—every detail from the rustic decor to the lush gardens gives the house a warm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly makes you feel at home. What truly sets Amani House apart, though, is the hospitality. The staff were attentive and kind, going above and beyond to make our stay smooth and enjoyable. A special shoutout to Russell, who was not only gracious and helpful throughout our visit, but even came to the rescue when our car wouldn’t start. He helped us jump it without hesitation—a small act that meant a lot and reflects the spirit of this special place. If you’re looking for a serene, beautifully designed spot with heart and soul, Amani House is it. We’ll definitely be back.

Tabitha et Lazarus ont été très accueillants et bienveillants. Malgré notre heure d'arrivée tardive, ils sont venus nous accueillir au portail. Le logement était magnifique et correspondait au photo. Parfaitement propre et équipé. L'endroit est un peu isolé mais très tranquille. Je recommande à 100 % ce logement pour un passage à Nairobi

Melvin is an excellent responsive host and his place is close to the shops and supermarkets. The animals in the ark are very quiet.

We loved our stay at five acres. Marvin responds very fast and correct. He is flexible and friendly. The house is exactly as described in the ad. It has a lush green garden and is located in a safe enviroment. Would def come again.

Mohan and the housekeepers really welcomed us with open arms. From the moment of our arrival, they were very happy to settle us in and attend to our needs. The treehouse was perfectly located within the leafy suburbs of Lavington in driving proximity to various tourist attractions, making it an ideal place to stay. The space was unique, surrounded by greenery with a beautiful tree in the centre. The kitchen was well-stocked and the overall layout was spacious. The bathroom was clean with warm water for shower. There is access to a beautiful, well-kept garden, tended to by Mohan himself. Travelling as two young women, we felt very safe and looked after. It strikes the perfect balance between nature and city. We would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet getaway with a easy access to the city centre !

The place is great, high end neighborhood and very peaceful. the house was neat, great amenities and furniture. With an amazing host. I will definitely check in again.

Great spot

Mary was proactive even with internet downtime and even offered to cover my internet services during downtime, her place is a peace in the middle of a semi busy area, i enjoyed this as i healed in a broken engagement, it was peaceful and simple for me to rest. if you want to still get work done while needing alone time, its the best place to be

A beautiful oasis, I especially loved my mornings drinking coffee while overlooking the pristine garden. The apartment is beautifully decorated. I loved the charm of the building. Super comfy bed.

Excellent host who communicated with clear instructions from booking till check in . Place was clean and cozy, just as shown in pictures . Bed and sofa were comfortable . WiFi was appreciated although a bit slow. Perfect location for anyone who needs to access Ngong , Olepolos or Oloolua. Transportation is very accesible via motobikes, taxis, and public buses in the area . Area is walkable distance to many shops and eateries . Cooking utensils were sufficient for anyone who wants to cook. I’d recommend to stock sugar, creamer, tea bags and coffee to quench morning thirst . Overall would recommend the place .

Matches the Description. Accessible to almost everything and i would highly recommend.

Marvin’s place is ideal for meeting guests flying in or flying out. Central location and easy to find. Very comfortable and well resourced . Highly recommend .

Had an absolutely phenomenal stay, Whitney was extremely helpful and gave me all the instructions I needed whenever I asked. I also really appreciated the fact that the check out was at 11:30am it gave me a lot more flexibility than most other places do, so I didn't have to be in a rush in the morning. All in all, I would definitely recommend!

This was a wonderful place to stay in Nairobi. The walk-in showers were excellent and the beds very comfortable. It was very easy to get around town using Ubers. It was also very close to YaYa Center, which had excellent cafes and an assortment of groceries. Our hosts were excellent to work with. We definitely recommend staying at their place. We will stay here again next time we’re in Nairobi. Their place is on the 14th floor of a new condo and has a great deck for viewing the sunsets.

Superb location, calm clean neat and exactly as described. The host has clear and precise instructions on how to navigate through the place. Also the apartment is well situated with an amazing daily view of the city. I will definitely come back again.

Very beautifully set up space. The bed was firm and cozy. The shower was amazing and it was very very clean. I would definitely go back.

I feel so much at home at this beautiful apartment. it got everything i needed and the peaceful environment made me so productive when i worked from home, the surrounded shopping malls and restaurants are within driving distance and transportation was very convenient! I’ll definitely come back again if next time i’ll be back in Nairobi:) Also thank Cosmos, he is an amazingly responsive and friendly host. Love my experience being here😁

It’s always a pleasure to be hosted Julz in the lovely apartment she manages. Looking forward to my next stay in Nairobi.

I would come back any time or recommend it any time. It’s a place to be if you want some nice, peace and quiet and comfy environment with birds singing in the air and surrounded by nature.

Comfortable 2 bed, 2.5 bath in Riverside Nairobi. Spent the weekend and easy to move around with an Uber in and out. Wifi worked, hot showers, big screen TV, and comfortable couch. Will definitely consider streaming again when next in Nairobi. The location was also close to Crafty Chameleon restaurant, Kengele’s sports bar, Roadies nyama choma etc. Host was super responsive as well.

Great apartment. Will definitely stay here again.
