Next door loud music throughout the day destroys the peaceful surrounds

Lovely location by the water with access to Crescent Island

The lakeshore is close to the Karagita public beach and mainly a launching sites for boat tours, not a place to sit quietly and enjoy the lake. There is a ticket office for boat tours in the grounds and a steady stream of visitors for such tours during the day.

It's a tented camp on the shores of Lake Naivasha, relatively close to the town. A good location for a stopover between Lake Nakuru / the west and Masai Mara / Amboseli / the east. More affordable but also more simple than the upmarket lakeside resorts (Simba, Sopa, Enashipai, etc). Accommodation was in a huge tent, on a platform with a permanent bathroom attached, with two large double beds and a single bed, desk, small veranda etc. Quite comfortable, looking out over a central grassy area and the lake beyond it. Saw hippos grazing at night. Meals were fine.

We travelled during the rain season so it can be very cold. The bathroom is pretty much like an ice room and it is very tricky to get the water to the right temperature from the shower. They also could have give each person a bottle of hot water rather than just 1. What worst for me is the staff in the late afternoon does not seem to care much what the guest said, but rather just do what they were trained to do. For both nights that we staying there, they came in around 6-7 pm to give you the hot water bottle and put down curtains and mosquito net. The first day I was in the room napping, but my husband sat at the balcony and he asked the staff just give him the hot water bottle and he will bring it in himself. The male staff acted surprised and keep pressing to get in the room, to the point where my husband jumped up from his chair to get the water from his hands and stopping him from going in. The second day, my husband was in the toilet while I was sitting in the room in my underwear (there are just the 2 of us) when the staff came. I told him to WAIT and I will get the door for him, but he walked straight in while I was trying to put my trousers on. I thought he would walk out immediately but nope. He didn't even stop and process to the bed to put down the water bottle ect and after I repeatedly asking him to please leave as I will do the rest myself and it's very inappropriate of him to walk in while I'm in my underwear he left. I also saw staff bringing big stick and stones to throw at waterbuck in the garden. Not sure what's their problem is but it's not very nice to see they screaming and hurting such gentle creatures. and I'm sure tourists would like to see them around too.

The location is great for Hells gate and Naivasha lake. The room is very spacious and have a great lake view. The kitchen and restaurant staff are great, super friendly and attentive. They provided a hot water bottle at night to keep you warm, which greatly appreciated.

the fact that there were no phones in the room in case of an emergency.

the view of lake naivasha. How large my room was as well (I got a single deluxe room and it was lovely). The service was really good and friendly. There was a swimming pool as well as boat rides at a really fair price. IT WAS SO GOOOODDD!!

Bedlinen and towels were damp despite being early June. Barren wood floors, however, cold under feet in the morning and evening and a few rugs would not come amiss. Noise level from neighbouring were noticeable, but ceased around 10:00pm.

Staff was very friendly and accommodating, structured were well-maintained, but a little worn around the edges. These are predominantly tent-houses which provide a great safari feel but are rustic in their very nature! Fabrics, very clean and housekeeping offered hot water bottle for the night which was not needed. This and neighbouring sites have to battle with rising and encroaching lake levels since 2020 which already led some sites & buildings originally closer to the lake front to be abandoned to the water. Views and proximity to Crescent Island with in-house boats tours around the lake and island are ideal.

The area around the camp is noisy especially during night and on Sunday morning. The lake shore is quite dirty at that location.

Breakfast was decent, several options available both continental and classical English. Lots of fruit. A variety of omelettes was also available.

It was a Saturday, and in the evening and beyond midnight there was a terrible loud music from somewhere, but not the camp itself. It was so intense that both my body and bed vibrated. It was quite unacceptable, and we later heard that the animals, including hippos were severely disturbed.

The location, the accommodation and the food. And the staff.

This does not concern the property directly but know that the property is next to Karagita Public Beach, so it might be a bit noisy on this side during the day, but NOT at night.

The tents are great, the beds are super comfortable, lots of room and very spacious. However, the tents are quite close to each other so be mindful of noise at night. Amenities are also provided. Lunch, dinner and breakfast were good and generous portions as well. The staff was very kind. Grace at the reception was super helpful and Dan the night guard helped us spot some hippos, bushbabies and waterbucks at night. I would recommend for a few nights in Naivasha!

I did like this, but as a word of warning: The 5.30am riotous and loud dawn chorus of hornbill, ibis and geese is magnificent, but certainly stops any attempt to sleep. Not for the faint hearted!

Crescent Camp offer relaxing tent-cabins facing the lake, with wild waterbuck and hippos grazing on the lake shore near the veranda at night ( Camp is fenced off securely). Boat trips to the island and a driver to Mt. Longonot can be easily arranged at reception. Very friendly and efficient staff.

Some things a bit outdated, seating outside limited and due to the recent high water parts of the camp look worn down.

Unfortunately, it is clear that the place had a much brighter past, some years or decades ago...and it gives you some sort of nostalgic feeling. You can clearly see the ruins of previous accomodation destroyed (maybe by a flood?) and never rebuilt. The facilities are quite outdated...maybe up to the 90s or 2000s standards. The place has huge potential, it's clear it had been an amazing camp on the past, but to be up to date it needs a restyling.

Lake naivasha crescent camp has the typical style of a Safari Camp with lake view.
