Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Ongata Rongai

Good hosts - Ted and the sister are very friendly, helpful and accommodation. The house is beautiful, big and spacious, and the environment is great and peacefully quiet. We enjoyed our stay here. Good value for money. TIP: Be sure to use the PIN shared by Ted or host to avoid getting lost or going to the wrong location.

Fantastic place for a group getaway just a few minutes from the city centre. The place is even better than in the pictures and Charity was very responsive throughout the booking and stay.

It's a very lovely and green and quiet home in Karen - the place instantly makes you feel at peace. Enjoy being in nature but still close to Karen places. I have been there twice now and would definitely visit again!

We traveled to Nairobi for 2 weeks to be close to our son's family, who live nearby. Specioza's place was as described, very secluded and private, with beautiful grounds, and all the amenities you would need for a short or long stay. Specioza and Peter (the groundskeeper) were very responsive, and flexible with our booking. However, guests should be aware that you absolutely need to have your own vehicle to access this property, and in rainy weather, you would need AWD. We typically get around via Uber, and often order grocery and restaurant deliveries, but none of these options were available to us, due to the long dirt road leading to the remote property. Fortunately, we were able to borrow an AWD vehicle from our son, which made our stay workable and pleasant. We would highly recommend this property if you like a very quiet and secluded setting, and have your own vehicle. We would definitely consider this property again for future visits.

My family and I enjoyed our stay here. Host was very helpful, kind and responsive. Would definitely stay again.

Our second stay at this house. The location was perfect for our family. The hosts are were responsive and provided all the information we needed to make our stay comfortable. I would stay here again

We had a wonderful stay at Elizabeth Place. The house is set within a spacious compound that offered plenty of room for our kids to play and explore safely. The play area was fantastic and kept the little ones entertained for hours. The property also provided a perfect retreat for relaxation and privacy. The serene environment and well-maintained surroundings made it an ideal spot for some much-needed rest. Highly recommended for families looking for a comfortable and private getaway.

The greatest host of all time!!

I stayed here for 10 days in May 2025 for work. The flat was exactly as described. Very clean, well equipped, secure, and spacious. The hot water and internet worked well. It was cleaned every few days which was wonderful. I was able to do my laundry easily. The compound is very secure. It is a ground floor flat which looks out into the parking lot, so I don’t open the curtains very often. I was at work most of the time so this wasn’t an issue for me.

I loved staying at your home! You’re a great host, so helpful, so glad I stayed with you! I can stay there for forever! I loved everything about your place! Thank you for hosting me!

Yvonne's apartment is in a very safe part of the city. The complex is surrounded by beautiful views, and the apartment itself was well stocked, and cleaned for us.

Excellent location. Amenities were perfect. Joan is a great host - friendly and responsive.

Mitchell was a great host who provided clear instructions. Mitchell was very responsive and the apartment was just as described. Centrally located, clean, safe, 24 hour security on site, an easy access to other amenities. I will be back.

From the moment I saw the lusting on the app, I knew I had to book it right away and I did not regret my decision even for a moment. From the kind host that Sally is to the lovely apartment, great amenities and proximity to all important places, this apartment is one of a kind. I have lived in several apartments but this one tops my list, a lot of thought was put into the furnishing of the apartment and nothing makes an apartment homely than the choice of furniture and utensils in the kitchen. I had a hard time leaving, honestly didn’t want to but I had to:) Will be booking again with Sally. Thank you for your kindness and putting so much thought into every detail.

Sam's unit is a great staging location to enjoy all that Nairobi has to offer. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. The security staff were also very friendly and helpful. I recommend Sam's place as a great place for a couple visiting Nairobi.

Great place, quiet, near AU Ibar, near a mall, all walking distance. very safe and secure.

Wow !! I was there with my family the place is specious and have all the answer for our questions.i really recommend this place thank you Brian and klaya!!

Our Airbnb host was fantastic—proactive and quick to respond. Even though her house is tucked away in a serene and beautiful location, she provided clear and accurate directions, making it easy to find. She was readily available to ensure our check-in was smooth and hassle-free. During our stay, she checked in on us but also gave us the freedom to enjoy ourselves without any interruptions, even as a large group. The house is stunning, cozy, and perfect for a relaxing getaway. We had an amazing time and would love to stay there again! Thank you once as Christine🙏

Great place to be in. Florence is a very friendly host. The place has great amenities.

We had a great stay at this rustic getaway! There are a few routes to get there, but going through Corner Baridi was the easiest...our 4x4s handled it just fine in light rain. The place has a charming, earthy feel, with each bedroom creatively themed after African kings, which added a nice touch of character. Brian, the housekeeper, was responsive and helpful throughout. For a small extra fee, they collected firewood and set up a lovely bonfire for us. The food was tasty, though the kitchen team seemed disorganized when the main chef wasn’t around, so timing was a bit off. Still, all things considered, it was great value for money. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, character-filled escape from the city.

The house is beautiful—just like in the photos! The staff were incredibly friendly and always willing to help. The views are stunning, and the experience was well worth the effort to get there. Google Maps estimated 1 hour and 15 minutes from the Junction, but it took us a little over 2 hours. We definitely wouldn’t have found the place without the help of a local boda boda rider, so do plan ahead. A high-clearance 4x4 is a must to reach the property comfortably. Vanessa was a wonderful host—very responsive and accommodating, especially since we were traveling with two very young children. She went out of her way to support us and made our stay so much smoother. We’d happily return and highly recommend this special spot to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with incredible views!

Really enjoyed our stay at Sebastian’s place. It is in a peaceful and scenic neighbourhood. The house feels lived in and has everything you need to enjoy a wonderful vacation. Grace was extremely helpful.

This is a fantastic house in a quiet and very green neighbourhood in Nairobi. The housekeeper Rose did a great job taking care of us (cleaning, laundry, etc) and a recommended driver picked us up from the airport. One night we had a chef cook dinner for us at home; it was delicious. We were 7 and with 4 bedrooms we did not feel on top of each other.

Naomi’s place in Tigoni is serene and beautiful. Perfect gate away from the city
