Vacation rentals with outdoor seating in Ruaka

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!

I absolutely Loved Sidneys place. It was peaceful, comfortable and a great location in Karen. I loved how there were separate cottages for the bedroom and living room/kitchen. Sidney was a great host and his staff on site were very helpful and responsive. I would highly recommend staying at Sidneys! I have already booked my second stay.

The highlight of my stay was Geneva's staff. They were helpful and friendly. I felt right at home. I also appreciated how clean the place was. Would love to come again.

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.

The hole team is great. From Geoffrey to Moses and the washing ladies, all very friendly. If you have questions, the will give reaction in max 5 minutes. Top Team

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.

We had a lovely stay, unfortunately shorter than we had planned but Katelyn was extremely accommodating and the cottage was cosy and comfortable with really nice personal touches to make us feel welcome. The cottage was also located in a great area close to everything you might need.

Tim is an extremely amenable and accommodating host. The house is lovely, transports you back to another time. The garden is a beautiful, tranquil, oasis of colour and life. Margaret the housekeeper takes very good care of you. The surrounding area is lovely and there are several excellent places to eat. A car however is probably a necessity to appreciate these fully.

I'm going to tell you how perfect Christine's place is without saying perfect a gazillion times. This is my second time staying with Christine and this place is consistently amazing! I stayed for 12 days which made me not want to leave. The kitchen is fully stocked only in need of a cork screw, but since I travel with a small one this wasn't an issue. Super clean with all of the basic hygiene and cleaning essentials you might need. The housekeeper visits were a plus and helped keep the space spotless allowing us to explore Kenya and make best of my time to visit my fiance. Spacious, comfortable mattress/sofa, & fast wifi! About a block and half away is a liquor store, a small store where you can buy produce & other items. Tucked off in a U behind them are a laundry service, restaurant, and more. Need anything more? Catch a boda boda or Bolt(Uber) for a short ride. Christine is responsive and an amazing host. Whenever I'm in Kenya in the future she can always bet on my dollar

This apartment is well located in the city. You can walk to the Carrefour supermarket and pharmacy and it’s not far from good restaurants and touristy spots. It was easy to locate the building and check in. The apartment looked as shown in the pictures. Very well kept and cozy. I felt safe in the building, the security guys downstairs are also nice. I had an issue with the bathroom mat and the hosts were responsive, attentive and really kind. When you book this place just be mindful that starting Thursday, the music gets pretty loud. I think that around that time people start partying in the area and you can hear it. Otherwise, my stay was amazing!

We had an amazing stay at this beautiful place! The apartment was spotless, modern, and thoughtfully designed with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location was perfect—just a short walk to shopping centers like Quickmart and others. Our host was incredibly responsive and provided detailed information to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommend this gem for anyone visiting Nairobi

The appartment was very beautiful, so modern, with amazing views. I will be definitely returning here.

Very clean and definitely worth the price. I wish my stay was longer!

Michelle’s home is not just a place to stay — it’s an experience of deep care, thoughtfulness, and spirit. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the energy of intention in every corner of the space, especially in the bookshelf, which honestly deserves its own review. As a writer and PhD student, that part alone was nourishing. And then there’s the meditation room. I’d never even imagined such a space in a home, let alone spent time journaling in one. It’s shifted something in me. I came to Nairobi to celebrate a birthday and ended up reconnecting with my future self. Thank you, Michelle, for sharing so much of yourself with your guests. You’ve truly created something special.

I had a fantastic experience staying at this Airbnb! The space was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated. The bed was super comfortable, and I appreciated the small touches like fresh towels, toiletries, and a well-stocked kitchen. The neighborhood was quiet and safe, with great restaurants and shops nearby. Our host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, always available to answer questions or offer local recommendations. Check-in and check-out were smooth and hassle-free. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing place to stay!

Florence was extremely professional and promptly addressed all our questions, ensuring we would have a pleasant stay at her property. Additionally, she kindly offered airport pick-up as part of our booking since it exceeded seven nights. Unfortunately, we were unable to utilize Florence’s services due to an unforeseen event. However, I look forward to experiencing her hospitality in the future and will gladly refer others to her.

Staying at Lydia’s place was an absolute delight! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and kindness. She was physically present when I checked in , ensuring that the cleaner and handymen were on top of their duties. The space was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I needed to feel at home. The light in the apartment is phenomenal. When I had a challenge with the washing machine, Lydia went above and beyond to ensure that it was sorted within a short time. The shower is amazing!!!!! The attention to detail in every aspect of the home made my trip unforgettable. I highly recommend her place and hope to stay here again.

The space was clean and had everything we needed. Anne was easy to communicate with for any issues we had.

Great Place, Great Location and a great host. Would definitely recommend and will be staying here when I come back.

the place was awesome. Mercy, the care taker was soo helpful. I would recommend the place for anyone . It is in the centre of Nairobi. I would definitely come back again. thanks Merlijn

Great place..clean, in a nice residential area..and the space is just amazing.

Esther’s place is beautiful, clean, I can’t describe it all. Near malls and restaurants. Easy to access and peaceful environment. Clean amenities (GYM and pool). Everything was wow. Highly recommended her place. I’ll definitely come back.

The condo was very clean inside and out of the apartment. We loved the roof top. The building is very secure and we always felt safe and welcome. Great restaurants nearby. Shops and grocery stores as well. Nancy went above and beyond to accommodate us for check in/out. Very responsive host. The only real down side was the night club across the street had a very loud event the night we arrived. That’s not fault of the host but it’s worth mentioning. In the house rules it was implied there would be kitchen basics and while there was sugar for coffee there was no oil for cooking or anything else. Not a big deal but also worth nothing so that if you’re planning to cook you can prepare accordingly. The kitchen was otherwise decently stocked. Overall excellent location, great value, communicative host. Would recommend.

Very nice choice for our first visit to Nairobi. The photos are accurate and the space was clean and tidy. Designs Feels Feng Shui and we could definitely see ourselves living here 🙂. Blossoms was very responsive and provided great care and service. The house keeper is very thorough and she takes pride in her work. One of our best airbnb experiences. I’d certainly stay here when in Nairobi and recommend others to as well.
