Weekend Getaway · Karen · Nairobi
A weekend getaway in Nairobi, without the long drive
Private cottages, a heated pool and a lush jungle garden in peaceful Karen. Switch off from the city and spend quality time together, just minutes from home.
Why Jungle Oasis
The ideal weekend escape, right here in Nairobi
Jungle Oasis is a small, owner-run compound of private cottages and apartments set in a tropical garden. It is designed for Nairobi residents who want the feeling of a real weekend getaway without spending hours on the road. Everything you need to relax, reconnect and recharge is inside the gates.
Make the weekend count
Why Jungle Oasis is the perfect weekend getaway
A short escape should feel restful from the first hour. Staying in Karen means more time enjoying the pool, garden and firepit, and less time travelling.
A private garden escape
Mature trees, birdsong and hidden corners make the compound feel like a destination in itself.
Time together, not logistics
Trade packing, queues and fuel stops for slow mornings, poolside afternoons and firepit evenings.
Choose your cottage
Five unique units, each with its own vibe
Every unit has its own entrance, kitchen, outdoor space and character, so your weekend feels genuinely private. The Studio is an intimate hideaway for couples or solo travellers. Cottage 1 and Cottage 2 are detached two-bedroom cottages with their own gardens and distinct design. The Poolside 2 Bedroom Apartment is a light-filled favourite for remote workers and small families. The Duplex is our largest unit, sleeping up to six across three bedrooms with a private hot tub on the terrace — a favourite for larger family weekends and group escapes.

On the property
How to spend the weekend
The garden, pool, court and firepit are shared between guests, so a weekend here is as active or as slow as you want it to be.
Heated pool with waterfall
Warm laps at sunrise, lazy afternoons on the loungers. One of the few genuinely heated pools in Nairobi, ready whatever the season.
Full-size pickleball court
A private court inside the compound with paddles and balls provided. Beginners welcome, competitive rallies encouraged.
Fireplaces and outdoor firepit
Evenings gather around the firepit. Wood, seating and the sound of the garden are all part of the experience.
Gardens and quiet corners
Lush planting, mature trees and peaceful seating areas. The garden is designed for doing very little, beautifully.
Fast Wi-Fi for work and leisure
Reliable fibre across the compound, proper desks in every unit and quiet corners for video calls if work follows you for the weekend.
For two
Perfect for couples
A romantic reset
Choose the Studio for an intimate hideaway or the Poolside 2 Bedroom Apartment for a little more space right by the heated pool. Spend the weekend enjoying slow mornings, lunches at your own table and quiet evenings around the firepit.
