Kinondo Retreat is exactly what you need after a week long safari. All there is to do is to relax, eat, drink, dip in the pool or sea and lie on your sunbed. You will get oustanding service, a personal connection to the key staff, quite basic accommodation, quietness and time to relax and switch off. The sacred forest Kaya... more

We stayed at Kinondo Retreat in April and were a little worried after reading some reviews. However, we had no complaints. The rooms are large nothing spectacular but cleaned thouroughly ever day, sheets and towels changed every 2 days. We had been on safari for 3 days before coming here and I have to say that the lodge idea of... more

I was on holiday with ( cookietin) who left a review of Kinondo Retreat in January and it seems to have stirred up a hornets nest so I am going to leave my own comments. I am also glad to see that another couple who overlapped with us have backed up what was said, in fact they suffered worse. Everything... more

My partner and I stopped at Kinondo for 5 nights after a 7 night Kuoni Cheetah safari. The safari was absolutely fantastic and I could go on about all the animals we saw for ever, however early starts and lots of traveling take there toll and we wanted to relax for a few days before coming home. There were only... more

Kinondo is a fabulous place for chilling out, and the staff are exceptional, and will do everything they can to make your stay enjoyable. Charles (yes that's is name, it is pronounced Charliss because his tribe have trouble pronouncing certain words - which other reviewers would have known if they'd bothered to talk to the staff and find out about... more

I have just returned from a stay at The Kinondo Retreat and I strongly suggest that if you are looking for a peaceful, tropical, and totally relaxing get-away-from-it-all type holiday then this IS the place for you. Kinondo is small and intimate and designed with your privacy and peace in mind, everything good that has been said in previous reviews... more

We've just come back from our fourth stay in Kinondo and as always loved every minute. If, like us, you don't like regular hotels where you have to queue for your meals and put your towel on the sunbed before breakfast, this is the place for you. It is totally relaxing, the staff can't do enough for you in fact... more

Kinondo Retreat could be perfect. It could be all you want from a holiday, it could be close to heaven, but it's sadly not there. The good points: truly wonderful staff, you'll be pushed to meet a better team of people who will do all they can to make your holiday memorable for all the right reasons. The bad points:... more

Kinondo is a beautiful and quiet oasis, set just back from the beach, and a perfect place to get away from it all and relax, eat great food, drink cocktails and do as little or as much as you want - we spent 6 very happy days here. The all-inclusive option is good value for money and you will be... more
