Experience Nairobi via Pumbaa Cottage My family of 6 had a great time at the cottage(s) the staff were very nice and we fell in love with the homemade granola along with the breakfast! We cannot forget our gracious host Bev and Iby, they made us feel at home and made our first visit to Nairobi a great experience We are ready to go back and spend more time at the cottage.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Sweet & green oasis in the city Brilliant stay at this cozy accommodation. We arrived late right off the flight, which was not a problem at all. Breakfast is served in a basket at your cottage, super nice and tasty. The garden is lush, the pool is clean and fresh, and the cottages have all that you might need. Beverley and her team make you feel right at home. When you have a chance, go and stay here!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

A welcoming and very comfortable stay We had such a welcoming and warm reception from Bev and Iby, along with all the staff who were without exception impeccably polite and kind. Fabulous location and convenient for the the airport and local attractions. Easy to transport from here and lots of options for taxi. Thoughtfully decorated rooms in brilliantly converted shipping containers with all amenities. Pool and gym too all provided. Beautiful established gardens. Lovely breakfast in your room or outside-will set you up for the day.Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Absolutely beautiful place to stay Pumbaa Farmhouse and cottages are absolutely beautiful. The attention to detail in the design of both the cottages and the amazing grounds is fantastic. There is so much wildlife to see whilst enjoying a glass (or 2! ) sitting by the pool or in the mature gardens. There are so many places to visit nearby. We went to the Karen Blixen Museum, the Giraffe Sanctuary and a day safari at Nairobi Game Park. I would highly recommend Mandella , the onsite masseur who is very skilled at releasing knotty pressure points. My back and neck massage was the best I've ever had. Rose is a fantastic cook and made me some special vegetarian dishes. And of course not forgetting our super host Bev, who made our trip one to remember for ever. Thanks to the whole Pumbaa team. P.s. you should really package up and sell the homemade Pumbaa granola !Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Stunning! Pumbaa Farm house and cottages is absolutely beautiful… it is stunning! The gardens are amazing with so many plants and birds. It is a very friendly, chilled and relaxing place, with great facilities including gym and gorgeous pool. And immaculately clean. Fabulous location within walking distance to the Giraffe centre and a short drive to the National Park. We did a day safari and were lucky enough to see lions up close, as well as rhino, giraffes, antelopes, hippos and many more …it was fantastic! I would highly recommend staying here - fabulous! Thank you!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

Don't dither around, it doesn't get better than this. Just terrific. I would not waste another second searching for anywhere else, it simply does not get better than this. Excellent accommodation in a perfect setting (with lots of wildlife to enjoy). Bev is a tremendous host and the whole thing really did surpass expectation, so stop reading this and book your stay here already!Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

A hidden gem in #Nairobi Pumbaa cottages are simple, elegant, cosy... and the highest standards of decor, service, lush green gardens are enjoyed..... But most important is the peace, quiet and serenity of the grounds... and the special bonus of health & wellness that you enjoy at the gym, swimming pool and trained professionals in physiotherapy, yoga and high impact exercises...Posted on Tripadvisor![]()

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 Tripadvisor![]()

Peaceful! ☺Bev was a fantastic host, warm, hospitable and incredibly friendly throughout my stay! She went out of her way to show me how to get to the nearby Giraffe Centre and the lasagne on arrival was warm, hearty and much appreciated! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would strongly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the Karen area of Nairobi. ☹That I didn't stay a tad longer for early morning Yoga!Posted on Booking![]()

Ein Juwel ☺Pumbaa Farmhouse ist ein Juwel, ein Paradies fern ab von jeglichem Stadtrummel. Die Vegetation ist traumhaft, die schönen Sonnenuntergänge und die schöne Poolanlage machen diese Unterkunft zu einem ganz besonderen Ort. Das Frühstück wird jeden Morgen um die gewünschte Uhrzeit direkt ins Cottage gebracht. Es war frisch und sehr lecker. Alles auf europäischem Standart. Wir kommen gerne wieder:-) ☹Alles hat gepasst und wir haben uns pudelwohl gefühlt. Keine Kritik sondern nur eine Info: man muss sich nur im klaren sein, dass Pumbaa sehr abgelegen liegt und abgesehen vom Frühstück keine Möglichkeit besteht, etwas zu essen. Man muss also entweder im Supermarkt was holen und selbst kochen, oder man geht auswärts - beides ohne Uber oder Mietwagen nicht möglich.Posted on Booking![]()

Fabulous secluded natural paradise ☺The amazing ambiance and setting in nature was unmatched in this unique gem of a place. Nestled up against the grounds of Giraffe Manor, this place is impeccable. You will be handled with care from the security check at the gate, from privacy and cleanliness, to quality comfort, fresh breakfast and incredible pool area to relax. Bev was a delightful and gracious host, exceeding expectations. She gave great dinner recommendations and even assisted arranging transportation. 10+ ☹No space for luggage. Bed was not overly comfortable.Posted on Booking![]()

Ein Traumstart in den Urlaub ☺Wir hätten nicht gedacht dass es solch einen ruhigen, grünen Ort in Nairobi gibt! Schon die Begrüßung von Bev war sehr herzlich und entgegenkommend. Das Anwesen lässt sich mit einem botanischen Garten vergleichen. Die Vielfalt von Pflanzen und Vögeln kaum zu beschreiben. Ein weiteres Highlight war das ausgezeichnete Frühstück. Die Lage ist ideal um einige sehr schöne Orte wie das Giraff Centre oder das Karen Blixen Museum zu besuchen. Fragt Bev nach ihrer Empfehlung für ein Dinner-Restaurant - es lohnt sich. ☹Nichts!
