“Very sadly we are now back at home! We really did have the most wonderful Christmas ever staying at Nderit House – it honestly could not have been better and your staff went to the utmost trouble and effort to make everything 100% gorgeous for us. Literally nothing was too much trouble for them. We were all so sad to leave but do hope that maybe one day we will be able to return.”

Sally, UK

“We had a beautiful stay at Nderit House – making the most of both the Main House and the Guest House. One of the most beautiful gardens I have seen at the coast in Kenya, truly breathtaking – just you and nature. I look forward to being back to this place full of magic. Thank you!”

A.G., UK

“What a magical stay! We stayed at Nderit House for 10 days and it was one of the best Kenya coast experiences ever. It truly felt like a home-away-from-home. Thank you to all the staff for taking such good care of us. We can’t wait to come back!”
