Serene Melrose Gardens 3 br, 3 bath Guest-wing.
Great accommodation, I highly recommend it. We stayed there for a month before finding a house for our family. Plus points: Angelina's responsiveness and kindness, always looking after everything, the location (practical, green and safe), the size of the house and its interior layout, the equipment, the fact that someone comes to clean every three days.

★The Round House - Tranquil Getaway★
Great place. A few small niggles, like broken light bulbs, at first but very quickly and efficiently sorted

Shiny New Guest Houses in Nairobi Kenya
The apartment is in a very nice and safe neighborhood in Nairobi, close to the UN offices and to public transport. It was clean and comfortable. It's a Walking distance to the supermarket and restaurants. Maggie is very friendly, communicated in a timely manner and was very helpful with our requests. I highly recommend this place and I will definitely stay here again.

Home in Langata 1 km to Nairobi National Park
Janet is a terrific host. Very friendly and welcoming.

Bamboo Cottage, Langata
Ruth and Nigel were very accommodating of our small family. We had lots of privacy and they were very willing to share their garden and pool with us. This secluded haven in the Karen suburbs is a very peaceful and leafy respite to return to if one has a day of business in Nairobi or for the foreign tourist a wonderful, homely place to stop over and glimpse the high quality lifestyle of Karen, Nairobi. The dogs are super friendly and enjoyed our toddlers attention. The large bath was a big plus for our young children.

Cosy Garden Cottage / House
A gem of a hidden Airbnb! Jürgen quickly responded to any messages, he was organised and thorough. It was lovely to meet both him and his wife. Such a friendly welcome! The guest cottage has everything you would need for a short or longer stay in Nairobi, everything was thought of. The location is ideal - very close to Village Market, UN area, Sarit centre and lots of other key spots. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!

Cozy, private and inviting studio cottage
Would really recommend Edith’s place, had a 3+ weeks great stay here! Edith is a hospitable superhost and efficient to communicate to via the App and in person as well. Edith’s place was as advertised; if you are not looking for elegance or fanciness, this place is for you. It is cozy, clean, relaxing, safe and easily accessible for a great practical stay in Nairobi. It is located in a safe and secure gated neighborhood. Far enough from the busyness and chaos of downtown Nairobi but close enough to get to downtown and around town by car ( found Uber/Bolt ridesharing services to be quite accessible and convenient although public transport is also available). Grocery shopping and good restaurants are within reach ( walkable distances or short car rides). Would highly recommend checking this place out and would be in my priority list next time.

Acacia Rustic Cottage
A great find, quaint 2 bedroom with kitchen and dining/living room. Very close to sheldrick and giraffe center, just a $3 Uber. Mariah was very responsive and available. Wifi worked well and even had Netflix. Uber sometimes will take you to the wrong place, on the backside of the same block, so make sure you get the place on kiboko. The Google maps location is correct.

Top Haven: Cozy, Modern, 1bedroom + Garden access
I've stayed in the apartment of Naomi for 5 weeks. It was absolutely lovely. The house is cosy and clean (and kept clean throughout the week by Christine the housekeeping lady) and offers everything you will need, from hair dryer to good wifi to kitchen equipment. The garden, green and quiet surroundings was a huge plus for me. To have my own balcony was amazing to me. Laundry could be done by the housekeeping lady for a small price. It feels secure to have the family home next to the apartment, the family is attentive and welcoming. Naomi is an amazing host, friendly, and always made sure everything was in order. The house lies within a gated estate so it's definitely secure. My only point to add for consideration when booking, is because it's residential area, the distance to shops and amenities is somewhat larger. For gym lovers - be aware there is no gym within the estate, which I assumed based on the 'features' in the description. Other than that: definitely recommend!!

Adorable studio guest house in Kilimani

The Annex at 64 : Cozy, rustic cottage/treehouse
Steve has done a tremendous job to make his home green. full of trees, flowers and anything green you can think of. This makes the place peaceful with a beautiful views from the accommodation.

The Cosy Cottage in the heart of Karen
One of our best holiday stays. Samantha's property is a beautiful oasis in Karen. The cottage is lovely and has a view of the gardens. It was everything that we dreamed it would be. Highly recommend this property if you are visiting Nairobi!

Beautiful GardenHouse with Terrace
I had an amazing stay at this wonderful garden cottage! It is super cosy, beautifully decorated and thoughtfully prepared. It feels like you have a huge garden all to yourself, and it has a wonderful veranda from which you can enjoy the green space. The location is amazing, very central in Nairobi and yet on a quiet, leafy residential road. The host was fantastic, super responsive and very kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting a home away from home in Nairobi, whether it's a night or a longer stay.
