"One of our favorite places that we go to almost every year, we usually bring a group of about 20 to 30 people at a time.

The food is better than most places in Kenya and the rooms are one of a kind."

Staff were attentive. The food in the dining room was elaborate and flavourful - with lots of choice at the buffet. We would not hesitate to recommend nor return for another visit."
