    We were on our way to Masai Mara and could unfortunately only stay one night in the Shed. Very beautiful and functional apartment with kitchen, also very close to the excellent restaurant of the Ziwa Lodge including an indoor fire pit with a very cozy lounge. Angeline was very welcoming and kind, I highly recommend it

    Having curtains on the kitchen window would be great.

    We loved the location, get away from the town, our kids loved the pool as they had it all to themselves as the other guests were not swimming at the time we used the pool.

    When we were at the pool we requested for pool towels and the lady told us that since we are not staying at Ziwa lodge we would need to request our towels from where we booked. I found that quite absurd because if we are using the pool then why not the towels and plus how do we use our bathing towels at the pool. I would recommend that you come to some type of agreement with the lodge on this or if not then provide separate towels for the us at the pool. However Winnie did manage to sort us and very appreciative of that. I would suggest if you could add some side lamps in the bedroom and living room as the top lights are a little bit too bright. WiFi was also a big issue especially for the children,

    Winnie is amazing, she was there when we arrived and welcomed us and we felt right at home. She took us through the house and then explained further about Ziwa lodge and what was available. Through out our stay she was very helpful and prompt with our requests and sorting out our issues, Winnie is truly an asset to your property. The view from the master bedroom was really breathtaking especially in the morning when the sun is rising.

    This is a private serene location. It is a perfect place to disconnect from the daily hustle & bustle of life. It was perfect for my family to relax after a Maasai Mara trip enroute to Nairobi.

    Set in a nice area of Nakuru, this is a good place to stay, both remote and safe. I have stayed at both this one and the croft and my preference was the Croft, although sadly that was just one bedroom. I did not meet the hosts, but the staff that were on hand were always very pleasant and helpful. The Shed is modern and a wonderful place to relax, there is also a restaurant on hand if you don't plan to cook for yourself. I would happily visit again if needing to stay in Njoro.

    The WiFi can be a little challenging at times but compared to other places in the area it was ok!

    The property was beautiful and unique! The beds were very comfortable and the perfect size. The bunk room beds were full sized instead of twin which was an added bonus. Also the half bath on the main level was a nice surprise!

    Everything was great. Wifi was a little sketchy (and cut out completely for one night) but that’s a first world problem.

    Everything - a little piece of paradise. Very private. Great facilities we could use (pool, restaurant). Kitchen was great to cook our own meals. Bedroom awesome with super comfy bed and amazing views. The bathroom was cool and the shower incredibly spacious and hot hot hot water. Location isn’t walkable to anywhere but we knew this - and still we did some wonderful walks around the area where we got to meet so many school kids and families all stopping us to say hello and chat - isn’t that what travelling is all about!!

    Should indicate the name of the bigger property where the The Shed is located. No Taxi Boda-Boda knew exactly the place. In the end, the Boda who brought us there was actually working on the place but had never heard of the name The Shed. With little (letting you know the name of the big property) could save you money and time trying to figure out the way to The Shed

    The place, the house, tranquility and the service (except explanations How to Get there)

    Bit far from the National park, but we knew this before booking and not the hosts fault!

    Lovely little house with access to good facilities. Host and their staff were very helpful. Great high chair and cot (Kenya can be hit or miss with these).

    While there were many things I loved about the property, I must say that there wasn't really anything I didn't like. It was such a fantastic experience overall, and I enjoyed every moment of my stay. The property had everything I needed and more, and I couldn't find any faults. It was truly a memorable and enjoyable stay! 😄🏡

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at this amazing property and it was an absolute delight! The highlight of my stay was definitely the refreshing swimming pool . It was the perfect place to relax and cool off on those hot days. The property itself was beautifully decorated and had a fun and playful vibe. The location was also great, with easy access to nearby attractions. The host was incredibly friendly and made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing getaway!

    If it's possible maybe have an iron box and a hair dryer in the residence. The pool was ice cold 😅 not sure if it's always that way or maybe it was the weather that factored in.

    From the moment we got to the shed both Angie and Charles were responsive and helpful 24/7. Angie did reach out on the day of arrival to communicate and guide us on directions. The place is extremely clean and well taken care of, basic essentials are provided. The view is amazing. There place is well secured. The guard (Ibrahim) was friendly and checked in on us. You can request for a chef if need be. We got the honour of having Chef Davie prepare delicious meals for us.
