Accommodation in Karen, Nairobi

Private cottages and apartments set in a lush tropical garden, with a heated pool, pickleball court and warm, personal hospitality. A peaceful Jungle Oasis for weekend getaways, staycations and longer stays in Nairobi.

Why Jungle Oasis

Boutique accommodation in Karen, done properly

We are not a hotel and not a generic short-term rental. Jungle Oasis is a small compound of four independent cottages, each with its own design and personality, hosted personally by owners who live and travel in Kenya. Every stay comes with warm, direct hospitality, a private outdoor space of your own and access to the pool, pickleball court and firepit whenever you fancy them.

Our cottages

The perfect getaway awaits!!

Five private units, each with its own flair and personality. The Studio is a cosy, intimate hideaway for couples or solo travellers. Cottage 1 and Cottage 2 are detached two-bedroom cottages with their own private gardens and verandas — each styled a little differently. The Poolside 2 Bedroom Apartment is a light-filled favourite for small families and remote workers who want the pool at their doorstep. The Duplex is our largest unit, sleeping up to six across three bedrooms with a private hot tub on the terrace — ideal for larger families and groups.
