Wonderful cottage in Karen — we stayed for two days to do laundry and regroup after a Safari. We chose the place to get a feel for living in Kenya after the Safari bubble and loved it. They did our laundry. We walked to Giraffe Center. Hit the Karen Blixen museum. And at lunch at Tin Roof Cafe and dinners at Talisman and Cultiva. Great stay. Easy to Uber about. Yummy breakfast.

    After a very bumpy car ride to the lodge, we were greeted by the most charming team and shown to our room which was basic but lovely. Fantastic views. The staff were so accommodating and friendly and we had a wonderful breakfast looking out at the baboons and other animals. Just a fans start to our holiday. We would highly recommend this place.

The pool and sauna was very clean and easy to use. The room view was also pleasant. The place is highly affordable and in a very good and safe location. Breakfast buffet had so many options and live counters. Being my first time in Nairobi and Kenya, this place met all my expectations and made my stay more pleasant.

    Lovely warm welcome from the owners, who were charming and interesting to chat to over dinner. Very caring when 2 of us felt ill. Interesting farm setting for our children to explore and a nice change from staying in a hotel or safari lodge. Handy for visit to Giraffe Centre.

    The cottage is very cosy, clean and comfortable, with a wonderful view of the beautiful garden. The location is very safe, and it was perfect since I attended a conference within a 10 min walking distance. Liz and her family are fantastic hosts; I even got sick during my time there, and Liz helped me a lot by taking me to the hospital and checking on me. They are very kind and make you feel at home.

    The staff were absolutely wonderful! Natasha, Gladys, Rachel, were incredible, as were all of front line workers. I felt safe, welcomed and looked after from the moment I arrived (which was late at night, and I was a solo female traveller coming from a different continent). The facilities and location are lovely, spacious, yet cosy. The rooms were perfect and I slept well every night. The hotel is fantastic, right down to the cosy fireplace. Thank you to the amazing staff.

    I had a very good time at Masai Lodge. the staff was really friendly and helpful. I have never experienced such nice employees anywhere: James, the reception and restaurant staff, the gardener and the security guards. My husband uses a wheelchair and they always helped us before we could even ask. Such wonderful people, a cozy room and really beautiful nature.
