The Rustic Holiday/work House
Totally wonderful find! The family was really nice and the space was small but perfect for us. Super sweet dogs and very safe. The only complaint was that we wants a couple of hooks for hanging towels. But seriously, this is a gem!

Olmeut house, Ngong hills Kajiado
This Airbnb was a dream! The breathtaking view of the Ngong Hills, dotted with windmills, created a serene and picturesque backdrop. The drive was an adventure on its own, with graceful giraffes casually strolling along the way—truly magical! Our stay made exceptional by the amazing staff—friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with a smile. The host was incredibly cooperative and hospitable, We were impressed by the stylish and thoughtful interior decor. It created such a warm and inviting atmosphere. But the real highlight was the comfort of the beds – they were heavenly and ensured a great night's sleep. Beyond the beautiful interiors, the outdoor spaces were equally stunning. We loved mini golf experience, Swimming 🏊♀️ | Bicycle ride 🚴 | Padel 🎾 | Patique 🎯 | Badminton 🏸 | Tennis 🎾 | Cards ♠️ | Njenga 🧩 We especially enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings and took advantage of the warmth to tell stories till late night. This ABnB truly exceeded our expectations.

Secluded tranquil 'Africa House' with pool
wow. I am full of Joy and happiness I choose Jeremys beautiful hideaway as my first stop of my Kenya journey. Beside the huge perfectly maintained gardens and the magnificent pool the house itself is a gem. Like the perfect setting for the "Out of Africa" this house is decorated with many Masai antiques. The country house feeling from inside goes seamlessly to the vast outdoor terraces. The staff of the house is unbelievable friendly and completes the unforgettable stay. Jeremy thank you for all. I will be back very soon.

An Irish welcome in Karen - Hill Cottage
It's a very lovely and green and quiet home in Karen - the place instantly makes you feel at peace. Enjoy being in nature but still close to Karen places. I have been there twice now and would definitely visit again!

Vestavia Court Villas-lI
Staying at Vestavia Court Villas was truly one of the best Airbnb experiences—and a shining example of what it means to be a Superhost. From start to finish, the hospitality was exceptional. I was in town for my dear friend’s wedding and stayed with my fellow bridesmaids. The villa was the perfect place for us to prepare—beautifully maintained, full of charm, and thoughtfully appointed with everything we needed. The atmosphere was peaceful and elegant, creating a memorable and stress-free space to get ready for such a special day. What truly set this stay apart, though, were the hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable, and even their grandparents were kind and gracious—it felt like we were being hosted by family. It’s easy to see why they’re Superhosts—their dedication, responsiveness, and the love they clearly put into their space make all the difference.I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone visiting the area.

Stunning 4-bedroom Loresho house
Marine was friendly, responsive and helpful. We arrived in the middle of the night but still had no problem with her instructions or getting into the house. The house was spacious, clean and comfortable and the garden was stunningly beautiful. I would highly recommend staying there for families and groups who want to be that side of town.

Coffee House
We traveled to Nairobi for 2 weeks to be close to our son's family, who live nearby. Specioza's place was as described, very secluded and private, with beautiful grounds, and all the amenities you would need for a short or long stay. Specioza and Peter (the groundskeeper) were very responsive, and flexible with our booking. However, guests should be aware that you absolutely need to have your own vehicle to access this property, and in rainy weather, you would need AWD. We typically get around via Uber, and often order grocery and restaurant deliveries, but none of these options were available to us, due to the long dirt road leading to the remote property. Fortunately, we were able to borrow an AWD vehicle from our son, which made our stay workable and pleasant. We would highly recommend this property if you like a very quiet and secluded setting, and have your own vehicle. We would definitely consider this property again for future visits.

A Cozy 3 bed 4 bath Modern Guesthouse in RUNDA
My husband and I had a great stay at Margaret's place. Samuel and Mercy were a tremendous help to us throughout the week, and were so attentive when we had brief struggles with the electricity. The house is simply beautiful...only house on the compound - private and peaceful. Beautiful living room and spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. Would definitely choose to stay here again on our next visit to Nairobi!

Serene 4-bedroom home with steam bath in Karen
Angie was really communicative and attentive. She was there when we needed her to be both to check in and check out. It was easy to walk to the giraffe centre which took about 5 minutes and about 25 minutes walk which felt safe to Hardy Post where there was a European focused supermarket and we could get a Matatu to Karen roundabout. It felt secure at the house and was very clean and spacious.
