Pros:

Great location. Kids enjoyed the horse riding and the nature walk was great.

Cons:

Rooms and restaurant were tired - desperately needs a facelift. a bit of a hike up the hill getting to the rooms - glad I don't have a heart condition. Golf course needed mowing - lost balls on fairway which was like the rough.

Run down facilities and unresponsive staff
Cons:

Sadly, the property does not resemble the pictures. While the location would be nice, the facilities are run down or out of order. The tennis court is completely broken up and cannot be played on, the golf court only has one or two broken flags left and is completely overgrown and broken up and thus cannot be played either, the pool dirty, the rooms run down, etc. When trying to reach out to the staff on site regarding a free cancellation and early checkout, they just forwarded us to the management team in Nairobi that never picked up or responded neither via mail nor booking.com. Unacceptable for the price of the rooms.

Mosquito net please..
Pros:

We liked the serenity, views, restaurant, food was delicious and healthy, house lady was very helpful and sweet, the restaurant staff were welcoming and helpful, one even brought my forgotten umbrella after dinner which is the gesture that I will remember.
I would surely think about visiting again when I need a relaxing break.
Thank you.

Cons:

Mosquitoes in the room- I woke up many times to chase away them. There were so many it was unbelievable. The plug in vapouriser was there but was useless.
A mosquito net would have helped my stay to be excellent.
