I recently spent two days here and I found it very comfortable, spacious, quiet and clean. The small restaurant near the residencies serves a good breakfast while lunch and dinner orders are sent to the main restaurant and delivered here (it takes some time ...). Food was okay with very limited vegetarian options, I hope these will increase in the future. The pool is heated and very clean. Pleasant location.

I had a very beautiful and stay at The Ressidence (Karen Country Club) the service was excellent and workers very corporative and lovely. Karen Country Club is a nice place to live and certainly I will recommend it to our staff (Guests) or any other person looking for a place to live in.

This is a series of buildings in a quiet area tucked away on the as part of a country club/golf course. It is a few hundred meters to the main building where the restaurant is, can call and get a ride in a golf cart but the walk is pleasant. I had a lovely room, good Wi-Fi. Food was fine kind of typical european. About 35 minutes drive from the international airport.

Too cold weather in Nairobi compared to Tana River, but the warm welcome by the staff at the residents makes it much of a better place to stay. Serenity and tranquility. We missed our food and had to order some take aways, but we can't wait to be back next year and enjoy the new kitchen almost to completion. Thanks, my son was happy and enjoyed the birthday cake given to him. We shall be back again.

We arrived to Nairobi very weary from a long day of travel. Our rooms were comfortable and lovely! The staff was super welcoming and a special shout out to Isaac to his exceptional service and kindness to very tired travelers! You helped kick off our visit to Africa with a beautiful evening! Asante sana!

This place is perfect!! The staff are so kind and helpful! The food amazing. Situated on a gorgeous golf course with nature paths all around. It is a safe, peaceful place to stay. The rooms are beautiful with balcony and nice bedding etc. The turndown service each night makes you feel so welcome. Pool, tennis all very nice. A great place to explore ❤️

We had a nice time; the staff is great. They are building a new restaurant closer to the rooms. That will hopefully eliminate the need to travel back and forth to the club for meals. The rooms and linens could do with an updating. Beautiful grounds and golf course.
