The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Spacious and Scenic

I stayed in a Longonot Villa, and it was absolutely stunning! The villa had three spacious en-suite bedrooms and a beautifully furnished living room. The top-floor master bedroom offered amazing views of the surrounding landscapes, making every moment special. The kitchen was fully equipped, allowing us to prepare our meals comfortably. It truly felt like a home away from home!

Really good Culinary Experience

The dining experience here was simply excellent! The restaurant offered a wide variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, all prepared with great care. My favorite was the buffet; everything was fresh and delicious. Both breakfast and dinner were good, and I was particularly impressed by the attentive service. It made every meal feel special.

Relaxation and Nature

While I was there for mostly business, I found time for some leisure. The nature walk with Daniel Kilonzo was a highlight; he shared fascinating insights about the local flora and fauna. Even just lounging by the pool was a treat, surrounded by the beautiful scenery of the Great Rift Valley. It felt like a perfect way to unwind after a busy day.

Golfing Paradise

I had the pleasure of playing on the golf course during my stay, and I have to say, it was in excellent shape! The course was beautifully designed and set amidst stunning natural scenery, allowing for a unique golfing experience. While playing, I was thrilled to spot various wildlife around the course, including some zebras. It’s truly a golfing paradise.

I had an incredible stay at this resort in the Rift Valley! The scenery is absolutely stunning and offers a perfect escape for relaxation. The service is top-notch, with incredibly hospitable staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The only downside was that the sliding doors in the room didn’t have screens, which could be a minor inconvenience, but overall, the experience was fantastic.

I had a wonderful experience at this resort spa, which offers a great escape from the city with its tranquil environment. The rooms are impeccably clean and comfortable, making it easy to unwind. The staff, especially Alice and Muthui, were exceptionally accommodating. One downside was the limited number of washrooms near the conference area, which proved inconvenient during peak times. Overall, I would absolutely recommend this place for a family getaway or a relaxing retreat.
