A wonderful stay at Jungle Oasis. A beautifully calm setting in Karen. Our children loved the hot tub and the friendly dogs. Tranquil and a great start to our safari holiday.

We loved the lush gardens and waking up to naturally lit living areas that felt like we were floating in the trees. Ann and Rose looked after us so well. We will be back.
BettyNanyuki, Kenya
An absolute gem in Karen. Huge, beautifully decorated and full of light. The hot tub on the deck was a real highlight after long days exploring Nairobi.
