An amazing trip all around I instantly felt at peace ☺️ So grateful for the company, the hospitality, the experience and the energy ✨ Everything was organized, planned and executed to a T. Staff is friendly, helpful and efficient. They show a real understanding of your likes and dislikes and implement them for your stay. For example, I asked for chillies on the first day and somehow they knew that I would need it for future meals, and maintained them on the table. It was a simple yet effective gesture of my request. The rooms were clean and organized. I especially appreciated the hot water bottle in the bed to go to after a cold evening. I was in awe of the lakeside breakfast, the views are immaculate. If this is a glimpse of what Serena is like as an establishment, then i would definitely love to explore all your properties. Thank you so very much for this beautiful and soul capturing experience.

All the way from reception to kwaheri was memorable. The rooms are clean very comfortable spacious and sooo serene. Staff are awesome. The chef and manager made personal visit at our tables to ensure we’re comfortable. The chef even gave us a special on our last day. Awesome. Animal seeing and watering zone is a major plus very near yet very safe and the animals did not disappoint. The area around was safe for our daily morning walk/jogs which we really enjoyed. The Pool experience was also good. This a place sure to come again

The camp is perfectly located. Not too far from Nairobi and its just sits right next to Lake Elementaita and its always a beautiful morning as you wake up to the views of the sleeping warrior hills and lake. The staff is more than friendly to always help and the activities in the camp keep you buzzing. The food is top tier and my top 2 highlights at the camp are the night game drives where you actually feel one with nature. And Archery. Really thankful to Lamek the manager, Aloice the archery instructor and Mohammed our driver the knowledge he has of the animal kingdom is insane. Wait wait wait.... I almost forgot my third highlight. Horse riding in the lake It is so surreal.

Our experience at the Lake Elmenteita is best described as 5 Star glamping! The place is gorgeous! Rich foliage, wildlife, beautiful rooms with very comfortable beds and spa like bathrooms and showers with hot water!! All the staff were very nice. Food was excellent ( with the exception of the “essence of fish soup”… would not recommend that) . I also had an amazing deep tissue massage at the Spa- very reasonable prices! We took a short drive to the Lake and saw quite a bite of wildlife and beautiful sunset! Highly recommend!!

We had a lovely time and your chef Mr Kennedy made us feel at home . He went out of his way to ensure him and his team were on standby for all our food requirements. The whole management made sure we were kept as good as home . Thankyou and we shall always be coming back to Serena !

My stay was awesome, and loved the hospitality of the staff. Mr. Stanley who was my waiter during my stay went overboard to ensure my requests for meals were as desired. The rooms were always cleaned and the pool so refreshing. I was happy to have my bags carried by the staff from the parking area, though I wasn’t informed that this service was charged. I therefore found it surprising to find “Tourist Transport” charged on my final invoice. It would be courteous to inform your customers of anything that would attract charges once they set foot on the premises and not merely assume that since they are already here, they will pay for it.
