Ngong House
Location
Nairobi, Kenya
Situated a mere 15-minute drive from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport, overlooking ten acres of Ngong hills, you’ll feel a world away in this enchanting abode. This boutique campsite is perched on stilts and accommodates nine deluxe rooms within six private suites. Constructed entirely out of lush wood, each tree house comes adorned with hand-made furniture and accessories such as woven rugs, bed linens, lamps, and stained glass finishes.
Awaken to the ambiance and melodies of an array of birds fluttering just outside your window and make your way down to the gardens for breakfast and lunch under a canopy of acacia trees. Dinner is served under the semi-thatched rondavel beside a grand fireplace, and guests are welcome to enjoy drinks and appetizers around the fire with friendly host, Paul Verleysen every evening. Families find the private cottage, log cabin, and luxurious suite in the main house particularly delectable options as well. The magic doesn’t stop here however, as the Ngong retreat is nestled in a superb location for Kenya’s wildlife-rich areas, where majestic lion and zebra are common sightings.
