The Detail

Set in the leafy, quiet suburb of Karen/Langata, on the outskirts of Nairobi, within a stone's throw or a lion's roar from Nairobi National Park. Inspired by the distinctive Swahili architecture found throughout the Lamu archipelago, Manzili House is bespoke, unique, and spacious. Beautifully decorated with elements of luxury, the houses sit nestled in nature, allowing for total exclusivity and rejuvenation.

It is a perfect launchpad for a safari further afield. Exclusive, serene, and peaceful, Manzili House is set in a beautifully established garden.

The bespoke "Manzili House" comprises two properties: the larger 4-bedroom ‘Manzili House’ and a second 2-bedroom house, ‘Manzili Ndoto’. Both houses overlook the tropical courtyard and swimming pool. Manzili House is perfect for both work and leisure.

Sundowners can be enjoyed on the rooftop terrace of Manzili Ndoto, and in-house massages can be arranged.

Popular tourist attractions located within a 20-minute drive from Manzili House include the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Giraffe Centre, Karen Blixen Museum, Matt Bronze Gallery, Boho Eatery, Cultiva, Talisman, and The Wine Box.

"Excellent service from start to finish! The team was responsive, professional and genuinely attentive throughout the entire planning process. They helped coordinate our private road transfer from Nairobi, our stay at Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge, game drives, park fees and the transfer to the airstrip for the next part of our trip. Every detail was clearly explained, and any changes or questions were handled quickly and efficiently. We were also offered complimentary travel insurance for the Safari.com portion of our trip, as well as complimentary eSIM data for both travellers, which was such a thoughtful and practical extra! A special thank you to Nerine, Clarisha and the Safari.com team for their patience, communication and attention to detail. 5 stars: excellent service, thoughtful extras and a very personal approach."
