We were assigned at the last cottage which is very far from the reception. There was no transport avail for us to go to and fro the resto and recep area. That’s why we opted for room service for both dinner and breakfast since it is unsafe to go to the restaurant when there is no ample lighting and the way up is not very well lit and not cemented. It could have been better if they asked us our cottage preference especially that we are not from Kenya ans it is our first time in the country.

The cottages were okay. Had all the amenities but the decor was off. The service we received at breakfast was AMAZING. I would go back again and recommend it just for the service and the breathtaking view of the lake at the pool.

An adequate place for families or two couples
Kongoni Lodge is a well kept Kenyan lodge that is well suited for a family or two couples travelling together. Whilst quite a long way from the lake, you get lovely views of the lake and the grounds are very nicely maintained. The lodge provides activities - which young children would enjoy. We travelled with our son and his girlfriend - the cottage was adequate with each room having its own bathroom. However, there was no fridge or microwave, despite the cottage being fitted out with a full kitchen. This seemed a little perplexing to us. The reception staff were a little stiff - we inquired about booking a trip to Crescent Island. They indicated they could assist us, but when we followed up they indicated that we should just turn up to one of the boat hire companies that operate on the lake. We asked for a recommendation and they indicated that they could google some suggestions for us. So, in short - don't rely on them to assist you with external activities - make your own inquiries. The beds were a little hard as well. I am not sure I would return to this lodge, however, it was perfectly adequate for our needs and the restaurant and bar staff were very helpful.

Highly recommended-lovely place
I absolutely loved this place and it was my weekend retreat during a business trip in between Dubai & Nairobi. Quite a trek to get there but it was well worth it. Warmly welcomed and I had a cottage all to myself as the other room was empty. That's the only slightly bizarre thing that if you have one room, you may have to share a kitchen, dining room and lounge area with someone that you don't know. No matter, it was irrelevant for my stay. Lovely bed and room together with ensuite facilities. I loved the main restaurant area and the food was positively sumptuous. Very friendly staff, particularly James. It was a very welcome break away from normal life. Although I could see the lake, I walked down there just to say I'd done it but I wasn't particularly impressed with the camp site area which seemed a little bit run down. I stayed for a drink and came back up to the main lodge which was perfect.

The site is absolutely beautiful, quiet and beautiful views. We booked one room and were surprised at check-in that there was a possibility we would share the lodge with other people if there was another booking. It's basically a cottage with two separate rooms each with Ensuite, but you share the living room and kitchen. Luckily we were alone, regardless the lodge was just a huge place unnecessary in my opinion. Room was comfortable but bathroom not the cleanest. The floor of the shower was slimy. The highlight of our stay was the supper and drinks at the restaurant. Service was absolutely wonderful, attentive and the food was outstanding. Really above our expectation was the table d'hôte supper. Chef Rafael even came to check on us at the end of the dinner. Loved it. Overall, I would stay there again if I could be sure to have the entire lodge to ourselves or if going with 4 people.

Disliked: Staff & service
We booked only the room with no meals as we dont eat a lot. The hotel has a a la catre menu but anything we asked for from the menu was not available. The hotel was pushing us to take the full fixed menu Dinner which we did not like for the dishes being offered. The Hotel is not good for Vegans. The Views from the rooms not the restaurant were good. The property has a lot of new trees and bushes that blocks the entire view of the landscape. You feel claustrophobic even when you are 25 KMs from any town. Not a good place to recommend.

Peaceful and Relaxing lodge mini break
Very relaxing two day mini break. Spacious grounds and private executive lodging with plunge pool and hot tub. Good restaurant with friendly and helpful staff offering nice set lunch/dinner menus, overlooking a communal gardens pool. Not that much to do locally especially at night, although local lake ‘hippo safari’ rides, small game National Park and cycling options exist. About 20 Miles and 45+ min ride along a somewhat pot holed road from main town of Naivasha being the only drawback.
