    The kitchen attracted a lot of flies at night and got quite dirty - we assumed it would be cleaned daily, but was not.

    The setting exceeded all of our expectations, we had giraffes roaming around in our garden and it was completely private and scenic!

    A little bit far from Lake Naivasha. The driver had some issues to find the place but if you say 'Camp Acacia' one is mostly likely to find its way more quicker. No wifi

    This place is heaven! The comfort of the tent was beyond my expectation. My family spent nice moments there. From our porch we could see the animals roaming around, we had zebras,pumbas, giraffes, antilopes, blue ball monkeys and a variety of birds. A safari at your doorstep. the kitchen is well equipped but one need to make provision for some botltles of water and groceries Viviane our host there makes our stay more pleasant. This young lady is a gem and so kind. She was so helpful in organising for a driver to pick us up to dine down the village, made an awesome bonefire for us one night and we did grill some marshmallows Exceptional memories that we took back home.

    Maybe it was a little bit far far out but on the other hand that’s also bringing the quietness I guess..

    It was super relaxed and quiet in the middle of nature! Just excactly what we were looking for.

    Cleaning - I did not understand why YourHost charged a cleaning fee for cleaning that never took place for our entire stay.

    It was a good and exceptional experience; glamping in Naivasha. The facilities were good and the kitchen was well-equipped. An ideal place to visit for anyone who wants to be up close with friendly wild animals - giraffes, impalas, zebras. The host on-site is also a delight.

    Nothing we did not like

    The location was fantastic: we had zebra’s, waterbuck and giraffes right next to our tent during the day. Other wildlife in binocular distance, including elephants. And the lake is a 5 min drive away, for a boat safari to see hippo’s and many birds. Our local host John was amazing, he is the most friendly person and took really good care of us. He guided us to our boat safari and took us shopping for some groceries.

    bit bizarre having two double beds making the tent cramped. lack of storage for unpacking clothes but loads of unneeded kitchen storage. bit of a push for money for everything.

    great set up and location. very well equipped kitchen for self catering. great open fireplace and animals meters away at night

    It’s almost impossible to find the place. The address on booking.com is wrong!! There are no signs & the name of the place is nowhere to be seen.

    The local wildlife includes a stroppy lone buffalo who enjoys chasing pedestrians. I think you need to lay on a staff bus, they shouldn't be in fear walking to work every day!

    Great property and location, plentiful wildlife on the doorstep.

    At first the owner did not want to provide the location of the property in advance, which surprised us a lot. On site, it turned out that the tent was set up on a square among deep bushes, completely unrelated to Lake Naivasha! Far from the lake, no view of anything. Upon arrival, the owner demanded a $70 deposit and a $50 cleaning fee!! On boking_com I have rented over 200 properties and have never encountered such hidden additional fees. It's good that I did not have to pay for a sheet. I do not recommend this place, I have seen many nicer properties on Naivasha.

    Spacious tent.

    Unprofessional staff: we paid an extra fee for housekeeping which they never fulfilled. Even after mentioning it to them, they decided to ignore it. They offered to make a bonfire for us in the evenings, but only at check-out told us that they charge for the wood. This should have been mentioned when they offered it to us initially.

    Nice location with great views of wild animals around the tent

    We didn’t really care, but maybe it’s important to know, that there is no Wi-Fi, even though it is written, there would be. And the whole advance check-in process was a bit stressful and in my opinion unnecessary to have to upload passport pictures of all the guests. I wish, the accommodation would change that.

    Its very beautiful there. So quiet. The animals just in front of the terrace. Really recommendable. And don’t miss the boat tour on Lake Oloiden.
