MousumiRating, 5 stars5 months ago

The house is very recently built, well equipped and in beautiful condition. Set in the forest, the property has a great location - close to a number of local beaches and restaurants on foot, but also close to the road into Watamu centre. Patrick and Jacky were very responsive to any requests, and we really appreciate the good communications over the week we spent there. They have put together a really useful list of local suppliers for everything from meals to massages which was hugely helpful too.

Condo in Nairobi

The View at Riara One- A luxury condo in Nairobi

NailaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

My stay at Jessica’s place was 5* all the way; the hosts are extremely responsive and proactive, their place is strategically placed , especially if you have kids ( it is next to one of the busiest malls in Nbi), security is good, the apartment is tastefully decorated and it looks better than the photos and the view is breathtaking in the evening 👌. I would recommend this listing any day and If I was Airbnb, I would move them to super-host status.
