Vacation rentals in Karatina

Beautiful large house in a gated community. Very quiet location. Shiku is very kind and responsive. She even extended our checkout time by a couple of hours when we requested. Fully equipped kitchen, felt like home.

On arrival we were welcomed by Raymond & Kendi at the front. Once signed in Kendi directed us to the tent and assisted with the luggage. Upon the first few days the team and especially Maggie and Anthony made us feel welcomed and were attentive to every need. The location is beautiful, peaceful and welcoming. The local wildlife is also there to make you welcome, they will make some sounds in the night but don’t fear as the security measures in this place are top notch. Peter and Eric are great at helping prepare your rooms for the evening and are great guides to take you around the grounds in the evening ensuring your safety. You can go for a local hike, ask for Isaac Mwangi as he’s a local database. Finally Betty and her cohost were amazing, responsive and very proactive making for a stellar experience. I can’t wait to go back.

Just returned from a short stay at the Grey Cottage. Had a lovely and relaxing time with family. Great place to stay and calm neighbourhood while still very accessible to amenities. Very easy to locate, clean and well equiped cottage. Mukami is a great host making sure we were always as comfortable as could be... treated as good a family. Would recommend for a family or individual looking for some quiet time. Thank you, Mukami, and hope to return soon.

It was a pleasure spending four nights here. The accommodation is a bit out of the way, but thanks to the good directions, it was easy to find. Thanks to the quiet location and, above all, thanks to Onyango, who takes care of everything, it was very relaxing. Onyango was very accommodating; he and the guys brought firewood and constantly asked if everything was okay. It couldn't be better!

A great place it was and Alvin was very responsive. I would recommend any time

We had a wonderful stay. A remarkable house, in a wonderful setting, more beautiful than the photographs suggest. This is a great place to 'chill' and to explore the local area. The house is stylish, clean and well equipped and the views from the upper story rooms are stunning. Sharon and the local team were attentive and most helpful, from the initial tour of the farm to the provision of all sorts of wonderful fresh vegetables from the garden. They also arranged a trip and short walk to the Mau Mau caves (do this through them and a local ranger can meet you at the house), and although the track up the mountain, to the cave, proved interesting in the 'wet mud' we were blessed with glorious sunshine on the top, along with pristine forest, wild grassy meadows and Colobus monkeys! Definitely worth the effort. More than anything we loved quiet evenings by the fire, either inside or with the firepit on the patio. This is an extraordinary place and highly recommended!

We loved the tranquility at the cottage, exactly what we needed to begin the new year. The fact that we had the unit to ourselves was amazing, perfect for couples. We got raw cow milk daily for free & even green vegetables when we requested. There was everything we needed & more, loved the home made chili offered. Catherine the help was too kind & always available to help, she’s a gem. We shall definitely be back especially because there was great Starlink Wifi! Only thing is, don’t expect calls on Safaricom or Airtel networks so it’s great when you don’t need to be on call 😀 Cheers to a great start of the year Dion 😇🙏🏽🤓 Tip; it’s near Solio conservancy, take the turn at the PCEA Nanyuki church signage, drive 2.7kms & you won’t miss it ☺️

10/10, this place is very beautiful in a quiet serene area with nice views. Looks even better in person, don’t hesitate, had a wonderful time here. Hot water, good wifi, nice balcony, all essentials as well. Jenny is also a wonderful host, she responded very quickly and any queries I had were tended too. Thank you for hosting me Jennny.

We were really pleased with our stay and wish we could stay another night. It’s a great weekend getaway for tranquility and nature
