A few useful things to know before you book.
Airport transfers
Airport transfers are available by prior arrangement. Send your arrival airport, flight number, landing time, number of guests, and luggage requirements. We will confirm the pickup arrangements and price before you book the transfer.
5G Wi-Fi & workspaces
5G Wi-Fi is available. Work in your room or use a rooftop workspace, enjoy reading time in the private library, or arrange the conference room for a group session. Discuss any speed, coverage, equipment, or backup-power requirements with us before booking.
Accessibility & individual needs
Please contact us to discuss your access needs before booking. We can talk through the route to your room, bathroom arrangements, and access to the library and rooftop so you can assess whether the property suits you.
Ask about steps, doorway widths, bathroom access, and the route to the rooftop so we can help you assess suitability.
Meals & laundry
Private chef service and laundry are included. Let us know about dietary requirements and agree meal times and laundry arrangements before arrival.

Pack for your purpose
What to bring and confirm.
Your host can advise on the practical needs of your dates and project.
For the work
Bring your laptop, essential research materials, backups, and any specialist equipment. Tell us about video calls or equipment requirements that are essential to your stay.
For the setting
Ask about the expected weather, suitable footwear, and clothing for mornings and evenings. Outings and rural transport should be planned with current local advice.
For international visitors
Check current entry requirements with official Kenyan authorities and your own institution before travel. Accommodation does not provide immigration permission or research authorisation.
For individual needs
Discuss access, dietary needs, and essential support before confirming. Request specific information rather than assuming an arrangement is available.
