It was depressing to get such rude service from anyone that was not Kenyan, I found welcome and heart from the Kenyans on staff but aside from them I would not stay here again. Being charged for every type of service cut deep into my budget and getting little assistance to go the places I wanted left me indebted to... more

Stayed here on way back from holiday in Malawi. Party of 2 adults and 6 children. Could not fault Wildebeest, picked us up from the airport right on time, massive traffic jam, and then arrived in this oasis. Tents were very comfortable, buffet dinner was great for teens, lovely relaxed atmosphere about the place. We got a early flight, so... more

Sadly I only stayed here for one night before I moved on from Nairobi but it was a real pleasure. The setting beautiful, it was like a mini British mansion house with a beautiful garden in which the amazing en-suite tents are set. Very peaceful and quiet, particularly for a city like Nairobi. The accommodation and food were both excellent,... more

This is a great place to ease into your holiday in Kenya. It is very inexpensive but the tents are quite luxurious for a budget place. We stayed at the ensuite de luxe tent and we could have invited many more people. Lots of space. The setting is great too as the tents are all pitched in the garden where... more

We booked a double tent for 3 nights but got a twin for the first 2 then they swapped the beds for a double as they needed the singles, We didn't have an issue with the singles, I'm sure they would have swapped them for us had we asked. We booked an airport pick up which was waiting for us... more

We started and ended our tour of Africa in Wildebeest. Our stay was very good. We had the chance to see all different styles of accommodation and they offer something for every budget and choice! Food was delicious and hospitality of owners and staff was great. This is really a place to recommend! You will meet a lot of other... more

Good location and variety of accommodation offered. We have stayed in the main house (shared bathroom), as well as a garden tent (there was no electricity when we were there, and shared bathroom). There are also garden tents with en suites. Staff are friendly. Issues with hot water in the shared bathrooms each time we have visited. more

I stayed at this place for 2 nights before I went to Tanzania to start my Mt. Kilimanjaro trek. I was traveling alone and felt very safe in this hostel. It was quiet and just what I needed after a very long flight from California. I stayed in one of tent lodges which was located on the grass on the... more

I stayed at the Wildebeest for two nights with my boyfriend recently. The place is very nice, service from the staff was good and you really can't beat the price, however the treatment we received from the manager/owner left us feeling quite insulted. There was a miscommunication and poor labeling as to which bathroom guests are allowed to use. This... more

Management response from
wildinafrica, Business Manager

This review seems unfair as it does not mention the incident correctly. It was not a misunderstanding about which bathroom could be used by guests, (as all of the bathrooms at the camp are guest bathrooms), but was actually regarding the guest drinking from a bottle of mouthwash which did not belong to him. As these guests clearly liked the...

I booked a room via Hostels.com. Wildebeest arranged transfer from NBO which was great. The room was clean and the shared bathroom was cleaner than my personal one at home! Dinner was great - - fried chicken, delicious salads, and chapati. Breakfast was also fantastic. Lynita offered invaluable advice on getting around during my trip and I can't thank her... more
