Dear Winifred Kendi Here's a poem for our housekeeper: "With gentle hands and caring heart, You keep my home a peaceful start, Dust and dirt, you sweep away, Leaving love and warmth to stay. Your work is unseen, yet oh so grand, A labor of love, in every land, You bring order to chaotic space, A haven of calm, a peaceful place. Thank you for all that you do, Your kindness shines, pure and true, May your efforts be appreciated, And your heart be filled with joy, unsealed." Hope you like it! @Olesamara collections Kendi made you proud ❤️

Second time here, and it’s just as magical as the first. It's conveniently located on a property by the river and easy to get to. The peaceful atmosphere, the river walks, the beautiful view of the Aberdares, and that perfect sunset spot by the pool make it such a special place. Every detail was thoughtfully done — from the cozy rooms and lush garden and of course, the breakfast (still dreaming about the cinnamon rolls!). Maggie, Tony, Raymond, and Kendi were total gems — so kind, attentive, and genuinely warm. They really made my stay feel extra special. Sad I didn't take many photos - but I'll be back!

Oh my gosh what a fantastic place! We absolutely loved staying at OleSamara. We stayed in the large tent and it was absolutely lovely! The food is delicious, the grounds are pristine, the rooms are gorgeous. We had a group of 15 so I was able to see many of the rooms. Stunning! Impeccable service. Highly recommend!!

The front desk customer service personnel (the manager) was not good. He was not welcoming. We requested for a look around of the facility but he refused even though we had already paid a deposit. He seemed more concerned in getting our money than ensuring our stay is enjoyable. One thing we appreciate though is they agreed to give us a one hour late check out. The room steward Anthony was very friendly and made sure we had a comfortable stay. And the young gentleman Trevor made up for the front desk manager's sour attitude. Overall, the facility is well kept and we enjoyed our experience. It comes highly recommended but we can't guarantee a good reception.

The calming environment stole my heart, away from bustling Nairobi life. This well kept and maintained establishment offered a very relaxing time during our Easter break[Already planning our next longer stay soon]. Betty is a very good host, making sure guests are well taken care of. The staff is super, ready to attend with smiles.....

We stayed amongst nature in tent two at the bottom of the hill. Tony, our attendant, made our stay extra special. He was professional, helpful, friendly and kind. He anticipated our needs & was always ready to help with any special requests.

We had a lovely stay at Olesamara. The grounds are really beautiful and the food was delicious. We were very comfortable during our 4 night stay and it was a convenient place to explore the attractions around Nanyuki. I would highly recommend Olesamara to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

It was simply amazing - a beautiful place and the attention to detail in the accommodation is excellent - we just had a wonderful time and Raymond and the staff there are extremely friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble. We spent three nights there and would certainly go again. Thank you to everyone there for the experience.
