Kongoni Game Valley is a quiet and sleepy spot within view of Lake Nivasha. This is not big game country. Rather, Kongoni is a nice place to relax at the start or finish of your safari. Owners Donna & Marco are your hosts.
~ Mango Opinion
Kongoni Game Valley was built at the beginning of the last century with wide open verandas overlooking spectacular Lake Naivasha. As an exclusive safari destination, it offers excellent and personalized attention to only a small number of guests.
The main building houses six large, elegant bedrooms with double beds and newly renovated bathrooms. It also includes a single bedroom, whose entrance is from the terrace level. Two large porches are a place where one can admire the panorama of the area during the day, and in the evening watch animals that emerge in the garden. There are also two large lounges and a fully equipped kitchen available for the guests.
The house is decorated in original English colonial style but with an exotic touch given by Arabic style furnishings from Lamu. Guests can relax in aforementioned verandas and numerous cozy, warm or breezy open-aired sitting areas. Dining areas include one traditional indoor dining area, a dining veranda, dining by the pool as the sun goes down on the hill behind the lodge.
In the back garden, hidden among Euforbia trees, there are two separate charming cottages maintained in the same style as the main mansion. Each cottage has three sunny bedrooms, a studio, a small lounge and a kitchen.
Just outside the beautiful and large tropical garden, beyond the veranda and the peaceful swimming pool dwells a large part of Kenyas wildlife that lives off the vast plains of the Great Rift Valley.
You will enjoy the natural beauty of the private conservation area and its wildlife: exotic animals and birds - leopard, zebra, impala, giraffe, buffalo, hippo, flamingo and hundreds of other species. Kongoni offers a wide range of activities including game drives, mountain bike game rides, excursions to Hells gate national park, Crater Lake and Nakuru, horse riding, game walks and boat rides to mention a few.
