MassimoRating, 5 stars1 month ago

Such a beautiful location and garden with large trees and even horses. There is a coffee shop close by and a couple nature walks which was great for bird watching. The accommodation was clean, comfortable and had everything I needed. This is my go to for Nairobi in the future.

A natural setting is showcased with a cascading waterfall flowing over rocky terrain, surrounded by lush greenery. A gentle mist rises from the water, and a walking path is visible nearby, lined with rustic wooden railings.

Haven: Serene, Secure, Garden access 1br guesthous

JohnRating, 5 stars11 months ago

This place is the perfect mix of private and interaction with the family if you desire. Kids are so respectful and Naomi went out of her way to make me comfortable. Countrywide blackout due to floods and she kindly brought me dinner. Access to their gazebo to sit outside when the weather permits and close to Karura Forest or you can just walk inside the estate. I look forward to coming as often as I am able when coming to Nairobi. I have thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Cozy House with Private Amenities, Muthaiga North

AshishRating, 5 stars1 month ago

I had a wonderful stay at Lucy’s place! The location was incredibly peaceful — a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, yet still conveniently located in Nairobi. Lucy was an amazing host — super responsive, kind, and went out of her way to make sure I was comfortable. She even let me check out late, which was such a big help. The place was clean, cozy, and had everything I needed. Highly recommend staying here — Lucy truly made it a great experience. Would definitely come back!

I cant recommend Njoki’s place enough. I was given such a warm welcome when I arrived. The house is just as described; peaceful, clean, private and in beautiful surroundings whilst also within walking distance to shops. And only a 7 min Uber ride to a great mall. Such attentive hosts - great value for money - I will definitely be back. Thank you!

This is a wonderful, safe place to stay, especially if you are visiting KALRO or Lion's Eye Hospital, which are very close. There is a good work area for a computer. The family is super friendly and I enjoyed meeting every one of them. Breakfast and dinner were provided whenever I was in. The attached apartment is quiet and comfortable, and the main house is available anytime. I will be staying here on my next trip.

We enjoyed our stay at Carol's place; it was peaceful, and beautiful trees and plants surrounded us. The space is thoughtfully decorated, and you are well provided for.

Furnished Studio Apartment at NHC Kileleshwa

4.98 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviews2 months ago

What a nice, quiet place, and what a wonderful host! The building is part of an upper-middle-class residential area. Both a large supermarket and a store with a big selection of fruits and vegetables for better prices are very close. The apartment's kitchen is extremely well equipped, including a microwave, a big fridge with a freezer, and a huge pot that came in really handy. One of the highlights was free drinking water. Matthew has a filter at home, and he refilled a 10-liter bottle for me whenever I needed it. Another highlight is a free cleaning service once a week, including a change of bedsheets and even laundry service for your clothes. The internet connection/Wi-Fi is good enough for making video calls and working remotely. Power outages are relatively rare, and when one happens, the power usually comes back within an hour or so. Matthew is super positive, always ready to help, and smiling. He works for an NGO and is both very interesting and easy to talk to.

Serene Melrose Gardens 3 br, 3 bath Guest-wing.

FabienRating, 5 stars7 months ago

Great accommodation, I highly recommend it. We stayed there for a month before finding a house for our family. Plus points: Angelina's responsiveness and kindness, always looking after everything, the location (practical, green and safe), the size of the house and its interior layout, the equipment, the fact that someone comes to clean every three days.

A covered veranda features a hanging rattan chair, providing a comfortable seating area. The space is framed by decorative pillars and overlooks a private garden with lush greenery and a clothesline in the background, enhancing the serene outdoor environment.

Bamboo Cottage, Langata

Ruth and Nigel were very accommodating of our small family. We had lots of privacy and they were very willing to share their garden and pool with us. This secluded haven in the Karen suburbs is a very peaceful and leafy respite to return to if one has a day of business in Nairobi or for the foreign tourist a wonderful, homely place to stop over and glimpse the high quality lifestyle of Karen, Nairobi. The dogs are super friendly and enjoyed our toddlers attention. The large bath was a big plus for our young children.

Cozy, private and inviting studio cottage

DougRating, 5 stars37 months ago

Would really recommend Edith’s place, had a 3+ weeks great stay here! Edith is a hospitable superhost and efficient to communicate to via the App and in person as well. Edith’s place was as advertised; if you are not looking for elegance or fanciness, this place is for you. It is cozy, clean, relaxing, safe and easily accessible for a great practical stay in Nairobi. It is located in a safe and secure gated neighborhood. Far enough from the busyness and chaos of downtown Nairobi but close enough to get to downtown and around town by car ( found Uber/Bolt ridesharing services to be quite accessible and convenient although public transport is also available). Grocery shopping and good restaurants are within reach ( walkable distances or short car rides). Would highly recommend checking this place out and would be in my priority list next time.

A spacious lawn is surrounded by trees and shrubs, providing a natural and refreshing environment. The greenery includes various types of plants and vibrant flowers, creating a serene outdoor space. Sunlight casts a gentle glow across the grass, highlighting its lush texture.

I needed peace and quiet… and that’s exactly what I got! The place is located in a peaceful neighborhood, yet is minutes away from the hustling and bustling UN Avenue. It is small but very cosy. I slept 13 hours straight on the first night(!), that’s how nice the environment and bedding are. Susan is a lovely host; she was responsive, flexible and very welcoming. Thank you for this restful stay.
