I've been to Sanctuary several times and have always enjoyed my stay. Beautiful, clean rooms-- though we did have trouble with hot water last time I was there. The grounds are gorgeous, perfect for walks by the lake with lots of animals around. The food is also excellent. I would say it's worth staying at Sanctuary for the food alone.... More

Sanctuary Farm is a popular place to go, and to some degree it is easy to understand. But the place is over-priced when you think about what you get. The farm is a down-to-earth place to stay away from noise and stress with gnus and giraffes walking around on the area. You can also have a boat ride on the... More

We stayed at Sanctury Farm , sadly, one night , on our way to SLeeping Warrior. Sadly because the Sanctury Farm is an amazing place and Julie and Guy and their staff are wonderful hosts. They are all so so caring , welcoming and nothing was any trouble for them. We loved the accommodation, the total ambience of being in... More

What can I say? This is just the most magical paradise you could possibly want - we wanted to relax in a pampered but natural and unspoilt environment and this is exactly what you got. The rooms are spotless and although simple, also with a feel of luxury and comfort. The staff are incredible and will make every effort to... More

Julie is pretty clear that Sanctuary Farm is not a hotel. She calls it a farmstay. In my book, Sanctuary Farm is more like a luxurious wilderness retreat. There are animals wandering all over the farm... in addition to their 250+ head of milk-producing cows, there are all kinds of wild herbivores, from waterbuck to wildebeests to giraffes and zebras....

I recently stayed at S.Farms when it was recommended to me by a friend. Long and short - Julie and Guy are the Best Hosts Ever. It is not a hotel but a homely retreat of a 5Star nature. It offers the best beds, the best rooms, the best food and by far the best scenery. Every morning when I... More

Sanctuary Farm is a wonderful place to stay for a week-end, only 1.5 hours from Nairobi. The farm is full of wildlife (zebras, antelopes, girafes, hippos), and there is a beautiful view on Lake Navaisha and on its amazing variety of birds from the rooms and from the restaurant. The atmosphere is extremely friendly and cosy, and the food is... More

I had a great visit, and would be happy to return again, but you may wish to understand better than me what to expect... This is a working dairy farm, with a side business of camping and casual accommodation. It is very relaxed, casual, unstructured. It is like a big family between staff and visitors, with various activities to do... More

I had the pleasure of staying at Sanctuary Farm, in late August for 4 days. I was on holiday with my very well travelled parents. This was the perfect place to begin our 2 weeks in Kenya. We recovered from jet lag, adjusted to Kenya time, and enjoyed the beautiful Great Rift Valley at a leisurely pace. Our rooms were... More
