Great location in the middle of the national park. Evening atmosphere quite nice with drinks around the fire.

Mihai Luxembourg

A beautiful property set in a stunning location with views across the lake. You’re around 8000 feet above sea level here which means warm sunny days and cool nights at the equator. We stayed in the Ziwa Suite - highly recommended, it’s huge, has its own terrace and fire pit. Just stunning. The staff were amazing, even sang us a song and gave us a cake on the last day. Highly recommended.

James Kenya

The setting of the hotel inside the national park in the hills overlooking lake Nakuru was amazing. The rooms are comfortable and a good size for two people. Staff is outstanding with their warm welcome. The food is varied and good quality in a lovely restaurant. Evening entertainment of dance and music a surprise bonus. I enjoyed the swimming pool.

The place is just incredible. The staff went above and beyond

Extremely well maintained and managed lodge, with super friendly staff and excellent food (we’re generally not fans of buffets but this lodge will change your mind).

Thomas Kenya

Everything! The location within the Lake Nakuru National Park is hard to beat. The staff went over and above duty to make our stay comfortable. The ease of game drive was equally good - we saw buffaloes, water bucks, Zebras, Rhinos Gazelles, Warthogs and even a Giraffe. Surprisingly the mobile network connection was quite good.

Gbolade Nigeria

Meets the expected standards of a high-end Kenyan game lodge. In-park location means it's just minutes from a game drive. Beautiful facility and gift shop, more reasonably priced than we expected. Good food, even from a buffet setup.
