EXCELLENT Based on 29 reviews Posted on GrandTour364976Verified A haven of peace A beautiful and restful stay at Pumbaa Farmhouse! I enjoyed the peaceful surroundings and warm hospitality, The cottage was cosy — I was able to put my feet up, rest, and heal, while also enjoying a magical visit to Kitengela Glass. I brought home a unique jug and glasses. A truly restorative and unforgettable stay! Highly recommended to anyone seeking tranquility with a touch of local artistry nearby.Posted on maryanne kVerified very beautiful place and very warm jolly hosts we were one with nature, trees and flowers everywhere and waking up to the sound of birds very nice cosy cabins, just what we needed to rechargePosted on Efunike AVerified Pumbaa Farmhouse and Cottages…a secret that needs to be shared So…you know when you want to keep something to yourself because you totally loved it and you don’t want to find yourself in a position where they are fully booked… Its just like when you stay somewhere and you try desperately to change your departure flight because you simply don’t want to leave where you are staying…That’s what happens when you stay at Pumbaa Farmhouse and Cottages. The drive to the property gives you a hint of what you have gifted yourself; an opportunity to step back from the hustle of everyday living and into an oasis of rest and relaxation surrounded by stunning grounds in a secure and welcoming environment. My cottage was exquisitely and tastefully presented and I couldn’t spend enough time there. I was very well looked after and had access to helpful information on things to do and where to go in Nairobi. Pumbaa Farmhouse and Cottages is literally moments away from many of the places to visit while in Nairobi.Posted on Nick WVerified We didn't want to leave !!!!! What an amazing place !! there are to many things to mention and only 200 characters. 😂 Firstly I would like to thank Beverley and Iby ( also the amazing friendly staff too) The accommodation was perfect everything you can ask for and more. 🙏🏼♥️Posted on Aliki PVerified The most amazing experience at Pumbaa Farmhouse and Cottages Wow! What an amazing experience we had at Pumbaa! Everything was perfect from the accommodation (we stayed in Cottage 1) the delicious breakfasts, facilities (pool, gym, bar), the beautifully kept gardens and of course our hosts - Bev and Iby. Thank you for making our stay incredible. Cant wait to come back again!Posted on Michelle WVerified Fabulous retreat, close to many visitor attractions yet still secluded……. A real home from home Wow what a stunning setting. Stayed in cottage 1, so roomy and well appointed not to mention very tastefully decorated. Birds a plenty from morning to night, stunning views and gardens and a real organic feel. Plenty of privacy but attentive and welcoming staff, nothing was too much trouble. Ideal location close to all the sights and attractions with excellent eateries a short uber ride away. Highly recommend. A lovely place to spend a relaxing few days.Posted on Paula LVerified Relaxing high end accommodation owners live on site so attention to detail in all aspects of the stay. A hidden gem in Karen well located for many attractions ( giraffe centre, Sheldrick elephants, Karen Blixen museum) Very peaceful beautiful accommodation with attention to detail. Pool and outdoor gym area in a stunning setting. Breakfast was excellent and would highly recommend the Pumbaa Farmhouse and cottages as a place to stay.Posted on Danielle CVerified Amazing getaway! This was the most amazing getaway!!! The cottages are so cool, the property is beautiful, and the hosts are wonderful! Farm to table breakfast is brought to your cottage every morning and it was DELICIOUS. Nice and close to Nairobi National Park, also a lot of cool restaurants/things to do in the area. Would recommend this place to anyone!!!!Posted on Irina vVerified Wunderschön Dies ist eine ganz außergewöhnliche Unterkunft. In schönster Natur, geschmackvollem Ambiente und mit liebevollen Gastgebern. Der perfekte Ort, um in Kenia anzukommen und mit wertvollen Tipps weiterzureisen. Fussläufig erreicht man das Giraffen Center und schöne Restaurants. Außerdem kommen Golfer in der Gegend voll auf ihre Kosten.Posted on Mwikali2015Verified Lush Green Tranquility Nestled in lush green trees with birds chirping early morning this is a tranquil place. The furnishings are simple and elegant which makes the place cosy. Breakfast, served on a rooftop overlooking the Ngong Hills was phenomenal. The personalized service by the owners added some extra warmth to the experience. We learned that most of the ingredients are homegrown on the farm. An inviting swimming pool, gym and yoga facility make it the perfect gateway for anyone looking to balance exercise with some relaxation. Whether coming from overseas or looking for a place to relax not too far away from the city, Pemba cottages is the place for you.
EXCELLENT Based on 19 reviews Posted on Natalia10Verified ☺Gracias a Bev y su equipo por todas sus atenciones y amabilidad, que han hecho que nuestra estancia fuera maravilllosa. Un lugar precioso y con mucha tranquilidad. .Posted on Diana10Verified Exceptional ☺ The place was peaceful and clean. The host was very nice and made us a really beautiful breakfast. She put hot bottle warmers in our beds as well to make it more cozy. She was checking in on us periodically just to make sure we were enjoying our stay. ☹ Everything was perfect!Posted on Brianna10Verified Just thank you, ☺ To begin, Ms. Bev was a beautiful soul, she was kind and patient. She allowed me to snoop all around the property and see animals that were behind the gate. Upon check-in it wasn't communicated through bookin.com that I had already paid the balance prior to arrival. So that was on booking.com not the host. She showed me how the cottage worked and how everything was at the tips of my finger tips. The water was hot and she gave reccommendations for tourist attractions in the city. I ate at Tamalis and the staff were wonderful. Thank you for that recommendation. She allowed me to use the pool whenever I pleased and it was heated since I went during the August timeframe (Africa's winter). I took fruit fromt he cottage and was able to feed the puimbas and bamboons who were down the road. little animals would come to the door to say, so keep your door shut hehe. They gave me a bottle of wine upon request since the ones stagged were dry. Every request, the staff was more than accommadating. Ms. Bev and the staff even allowed me to utilized the outdoot tub that was not included in my cottage but since there weren't any extra guests during my stay a basicalluy had te entire place to myself, the staff cleaned and ran the bath for me. I am so pleased and satisfied with my visit to Pumba Farmhouse and cottages, I will be back. As my first trip to Africa I avery pleased, especially since they gave me breakfast every morning. You all were sop thoughful,. every tip was well deserved. They even offered shuttle services around the country/whereever I needed to go. I used uber mostly but it was still nice of them to offer. Thank you Ms. Bev! She even allowed me to check in several hours prior to check in. So grateful 🙏🏾 ☹ N/APosted on Jiri9.0Verified WonderfulPosted on Katherine10Verified Beautiful, clean, unique, affordable, incredible host, and in a great neighborhood! ☺ Beautifully kept property and immaculately clean. The garden, pool, and view from the terrace was spectacular! Bev was also extremely friendly and helpful, as were her staff. Breakfast was delicious, too! We also loved that we could walk to Hemingways Eden for a meal or drink. Very close to popular attractions such as giraffe centre, elephant orphanage, and the Karen Blixen museum. Pumbaa is just as beautiful of a property for a fifth of the prices of similar accommodations in the area. It’s a no brainer - if you’re staying in Karen, book Pumbaa! ☹ Nothing 🤗Posted on Shahir10Verified Extraordinary experience consisting of bespoke comfortable facilities, thoughtful design, and set amidst rich background ☺ Just a bespoke design of facilities combining form, function, and beautiful organic aesthetics. Very comfortably appointed and extensively catering to every need and wish. Immaculately maintained. Very peaceful, relaxing natural atmosphere consisting of natural beauty, and broad range of flora and fauna. ☹ NothingPosted on Mohamad10Verified Extraordinary Stay ☺ Our stay at Pumbaa Farmhouse in Nairobi was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for in a way that truly exceeded all expectations. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the incredibly hospitable host, who went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our stay was perfect. The farmhouse itself is a serene retreat with beautiful surroundings, creating a peaceful and comfortable environment for relaxation. The rooms are spacious, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully furnished with everything we could possibly need for a comfortable stay. But what truly sets Pumbaa Farmhouse apart is the exceptional level of service provided by our host. They were incredibly attentive, always available to help with any requests or questions, and genuinely passionate about ensuring that our experience was nothing short of amazing. From offering insightful local tips to helping us arrange transportation, we felt completely taken care of throughout our time at the farmhouse. Whether it was a personalized breakfast or recommendations for nearby attractions, our host went out of their way to make us feel like family. Their warmth, kindness, and commitment to guest satisfaction made this stay exceedingly memorable, and we are truly grateful for the experience. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with unparalleled hospitality in Nairobi, I highly recommend Pumbaa Farmhouse. It’s a place where you feel not just like a guest, but a valued part of their home. We can’t wait to returnPosted on Otto10Verified Great retreat ☺ Very peaceful atmosphere.Posted on Josh10Verified Exceptional ☺ Design of the property and grounds are stunning, very relaxing and tranquil. Absolutely recommend to anyone staying in Nairobi Bev is an excellent host and even made us a breakfast to go as we left very early for the airport Will definitely be back!
