    Crater Lake is a wonderful haven of peace.

    The site per se is a wonderful haven of peace. You share the living space with the animals and birds. The staff is so dedicated, kind and helpful, they make the experience even more enjoyable. Asante sana, na tutaonana mwaka ingine!

    They do not have a gym or spa. I also did not see a swimming pool hence there are no activities within the hotel. It can get boring very fast.

    Excellent food choices. The breakfast was awesome and very convenient. We were requested to indicate the time we would like to have breakfast hence giving us flexibility. Location is quet and serene, just what we needed.

    A serene and relaxing place in the African bush.
    • Leisure trip

    • Suite with Lake View
    • Stayed 2 nights

    As the location is set down by a crater lake, there are, almost inevitably, many stone steps leading down from the reception to the accommodation and the restaurants. People without good mobility would find the accessibility extremely challenging. We went on a guided walk through the game sanctuary. Although our guide was exceptionally knowledgeable and we saw lots of game close-up (giraffes, warthogs, various antelopes, buffaloes etc etc) - which was really great - the walk itself was far too long and the speed too fast. It felt more like a route march rather than a stroll through the African bush. We have given that feedback to the guide, who has promised to moderate both the length and speed of the walk in future.

    The location is stunning, tranquil and relaxing. It is part of a private game sanctuary. The food is plentiful and very good. The 'tent' we stayed in was opulent (it had its own jacuzzi and stained glass windows!) and had a magnificent view overlooking the lake from its terrace.

    a hidden gem offering a deep dive into peaceful nature of Naivasha region - well worth it!

    The Tented Camp is located in a remote area, and getting there requires some patience and careful driving. The access roads are off-road tracks with potholes, so a suitable vehicle and some driving experience are recommended. However, the stunning location and serene atmosphere more than make up for the journey!

    Staying at this incredible place was a truly magical experience! The tents are nestled right by the Crater Lake, offering a peaceful atmosphere with birdson and the gentle burble of the water creating the perfect soundtrack for relaxation. The tents themselves are very comfortable, with cozy beds and plenty of blankets to keep you warm at night - plus, the thoughtful touch of a hot-water bottle made it even more special. The washrooms were spotless, and the shower was one of the best I've had in Kenya - absolutely refreshing after long and dusty hikes! The food was another highlight, delicious and varied, and having lunch on a floating restaurant was an unforgettable experience. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay perfect, always friendly and helpful, whether carrying bags or arranging a guide for a walking safari. If you're looking for a unique and peaceful gatewa, this is the place to be!

    Hidden gem in the peaceful old crater. Nothing bad can be said! The most beautiful mornings and the best place to come back to after a walking safari with one of the guides, or a day trip to Hell's gate. Just wonderful!
