Absolutely everything was supplied and we evem joked that we couldn't think of anything missing. They even provided cooking oil, spices, butter and milk! The apartment was spotless and comfortable and just a short walk to a supermarket and a sportsbar/restaurant (called Scotsdale) that we enjoyed so much. Its a quiet, safe and secure plush suburb of Nairobi and only a short Bolt ride to and from the madness of the capital 😆 Thanks so much for a fabulous time Jacque and Nancy.

The Drexel House was a private and calming escape after our safari. Property is lush and very well cared for. Staff are thoughtful and charming as well as skilled. Food was made with love and very tasty. (The butternut soup was among my favorite dishes of our entire trip across Kenya!) We even saw some incredible birds we had not encountered on safari while sitting outside during our stay. Location is very close to the Elephant Orphanage and Giraffe Center as well as good food options.

We loved every minute of our stay at The Residences. The studio was spacious, comfortable, clean and surrounded by bird life. We had half board and the meals were excellent. Dinner was a choice of entree, main and dessert from the a la carte menu. We particularly enjoyed the fish dishes. All the staff were welcoming and professional. We made use of the gym, pool and sauna, and had lots of fun on the putting green. The Karen Blixen Coffee Gardens are opposite. Prices at the Karen Golf Club were more than reasonable compared to restaurants in the near vicinity. We will definitely be going back to this hidden gem.

Loved the decor as well as the food options. The Peruvian themed restaurant had amazing food and drinks with great service. Breakfast was probably the best I had in Nairobi, it included freshly squeezed juice made to order and proper cafe style coffee. Beds and pillows were nice, as well as the shower.

What guests said about Karen:

Safety is the best of Karen.

Safety is the best of Karen. It's quiet, a lot of nature, sidewalks (so good for walking/running). Waterfront mall has everything you need, CJ's restaurant are high quality. Same with Naivas markets. It might be hard to get public transport, but Uber-Bolt are in 1000s. Giraffe center and Waterfront amusement are great places to visit. The Legend restaurant is more than amazing too.

The location near Waterfront in Karen was great, I had wonderful neighbours in the next-door apartment. The building is a quaint style and the apartment is homely. I greatly appreciated the responsiveness and helpfulness of the host Jacque and Ann. The security guards were wonderful too. I felt very well cared for, after an exhausting flight from New Zealand. Great place to land, thank-you 💖

Thoroughly enjoyable stay at this self-contained place hosted by Jacque. It is clean and spacious. It also has all the amenities that you need in the kitchen and bathroom. It is within a safe and quiet part of Karen with malls and restaurants being within walking distance or a short Uber ride. Check in and check out was effortless.

We were met on arrival by Naomy who was very friendly and helpful. The location was close to tourist attractions - Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen Museum. Bomas of Kenya. It was in a gated community so felt safe.
