Great stay
Our stay at this hotel was truly exceptional. The rooms were immaculately clean and comfortable, complemented by outstanding service throughout our visit. A special mention goes to Janes at the spa, whose fantastic treatments elevated our experience to another level of luxury and relaxation.

$40 for an OK breakfast buffet is the most I have ever paid in Kenya. Deal-breaker for the future. No ala cart. $40 or nothing to eat.

Comfortable stay
I had a short overnight at Tamarind Tree hotel - I was joining a tour to Masai Mara early morning with breakfast included with my tour. The hotel is clean and staff pleasant. I was surprised that there was a hole where the mini bar should have been. I was told that it was given on request. The mini bar should have been there based on the rate charged.
