We had a lovely stay in Iten with Joyce, Claude and Jeff. We had arrived by bicycle in need of a relaxing rest day and JC Iten did not disappoint. The food was outstanding, rooms very comfortable and clean and the hosts so helpful. Lovely cats and massive thanks for the advice regarding our onward travel. If we return to Iten in the future, JC will be where we stay!! :)

The owners - Joyce and Claude - are extremely friendly. They made us feel at home from the beggining. They helped us with everything - transport from airport, organizing Safari trips, buyin food (they have a shop as well) ... Joyce is also a very good cook - her food is tasty and, even more important, we didn't have any stomach problems during our stay (which is quite rare in Africa). Their prices are also reasonable. Clear 10/10.

We really enjoyed staying at Keon’s and Florence’s place. Especially the breakfast and the joint dinner was amazing! We had the best banana bread ever! The place is very calm and has an amazing scenic view of the Kerio Valley! The waterfall hike was another highlight, just a few minutes walk.

Excellent place to stay for the price. Staff very friendly and helpful, rooms were basic but great for the price. Food was good...

Grace (receptionist) was so lovely and helpful. As we had got there later in the evening we rang grace to guide us to the exact location. Which she did efficiently. And also came personally to the road where she guided us to come. Making sure we don't get lost. She went far and beyond call of duty. Thank you so much for Grace. Also she upgraded me to Bill Gates room. Which was a treat. And big thank you to the director Mr Ashish for upgrading my room.🙏 Diana was serving us in the dining area and she was so welcoming and marvellous. She was very attentive to our needs and requests. And was making sure we were happy and comfortable. Diana appreciate your efforts. And will never forget your smiling face. Joseph the super talented chef surprised me with delicious veg dishes of chilli paneer. Jeera rice. Mixed veg curry. I couldn't believe that in such a remote resort Indian food would be served. Made my stay extra special. Plus the decor is so creative. Every corner is attractive and well thought out. Finally the place it self is so so magical. Beautifully maintains. Eco friendly. Surrounded by nature and was beautiful and peaceful. Every block has a varenda and they have fire pits which are lit so we could sit out at night and be warm and enjoy all the sounds of nature at night. Am glad and thankful to Booking.com for adding this Gem to your list. Will definetly recommend to others and go there if ever in kenya. God bless all.🙏🙏
