Great location in a comfortable house near the best areas of Ol Pejeta conservancy.

Great location within the Ol Pejeta conservancy allows for flexible game driving. House is comfortable and a good value for money for families not willing to spend the price of a lodge.

A perfect family getaway

We had a fantastic two-night stay at Nyikani House. The property is amazing, Tina was an incredibly helpful and thoughtful host, the food was exceptional and the views were stunning.

Perfect place to stay if you are visiting Ol Pejeta!

Everything! Our stay was absolutely perfect! The villa is amazing and right next to the entrance to Ol Pejeta so you can't be any closer unless you are staying within the park. I'd definitely recommend using the chef services as well - the food was absolutely amazing!

Beautiful place

We stayed with my family at Ol Pejeta Villa and we we loved it. It’s very fully designed and comes with all the amenities you need. We’d highly recommend booking the chef as he cooks the most delicious meals.

As a villa for a night or two on the edge of the conservancy, you cannot go wrong

Once booked, the host was in in contact ensuring that all our arrival needs would be met. We were able to pay by MPESA (which for residents is a bonus), but other options were available. We did not make use of the offer of a cook (which is available as a paid extra, directly to the cook, and includes them buying the ingredients). We arrived a little late, but access was easy, and the table had been laid with everything ready to go. The next morning, the house help washed the car which was most welcome. There is a information booklet that covers all questions, available in the house. Access can be from Nanyuki direction or directly from the Northern Gate of the conservancy which was very convenient As the owner did not have any guests coming the following day, we were able to check out late at our leisure, at no extra cost. This is effectively an 'airbnb' and I can't think of much that I would wish to improve. All in all a very comfortable stay with great views. Although we did not use them, the outdor pool and clubhouse looked great. These are a short driver/long walk from the house, but all within the same compound The Ol Pejeta Conservancy offers a number of activities with pick up, I believe this is one of the properties they can pick you up from. If staying more than one night, it may be worth investigating if there are any deals.

Just breathtakingly awesome

This is one property that any information available doesn’t do it justice at all. Not cheap but eventually worth every penny. They couldn’t do enough to make our stay exceptional. Would stay again.
