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.

I had an incredible time at this resort! The views were breathtaking, and the ambiance was so peaceful, perfect for nature lovers. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay enjoyable, especially during my conferencing events. However, I did notice that the soundproofing in the rooms could be better, as I could hear some noise from neighboring rooms. Overall, this resort is a great option for both business and leisure, especially for golf enthusiasts.
