The Ndovu Suite

  The view from the house and our room was beautiful. We spotted some elephants grazing.

  The stay was amazing, the view, the staff, and the owner. I highly recommend from my heart to visit this Airbnb, the exceptional view is something special. Also around sunset... read more we saw Elephants. It’s close to Shimba Hills which you could visit as well and otherwise not far from Diani beach. Amazing place! Amazing view and good food!!

  Die Unterkunft ist eine der schönsten in der ich je gewesen bin, wir haben jede Sekunde geliebt! Die Aussicht ist atemberaubend, Ferngläser zur Elefantenbeobachtung liegen aus und abends kommen... read more Buschbabys auf die Terrasse 🙂 Das Personal ist unglaublich - wir wünschen allen Mitarbeitern, dass viele liebe Gäste kommen, die das wunderbare Personal zu schätzen wissen! Unser Fahrer Chengo war ebenfalls super nett und hat uns sooo viel gezeigt! In der Unterkunft selbst leitet Juma Jay die Geschäfte, da der Eigentümer John meist in England ist. Dafür ist aber Haushund Muppet vor Ort und freut sich über Gäste 🙂 Da man vor Ort nicht einkaufen kann, kann man den Koch buchen - es wird dann gegen Entgelt eingekauft und gekocht… Trinkwasser ist vorhanden, Klimaanlage und warmes Wasser ebenso! Pool und Zimmer waren zudem super schön und sauber! Pumzika-Tu ist ein magischer und paradiesischer Ort - jeder Mensch mit einem offenen Herzen wird ihn lieben!

  As a first time visitor to Kenya, and imagining the animals and natural attractions, I was completely blown away by Pumzika Tu. Upon arriving and entering the cathedral like... read more traditional structure, I was immediately drawn to the covered patio overlooking the beautiful valleys surrounding Kwale and the community led Mwaluganje Preserve. I could hear elephants trumpeting and was able to see a group of about 20 with the binoculars available for guests. Wow! During my stay the staff was helpful and accommodating with information and care, lovely people. The rooms were impeccably clean, with mosquito nets and A/C. The infinity pool overlooks the Valley. I honestly can't say enough good things about the stay! Didn't want to leave!

  Pumzika-tu! Porte bien son nom, C’est un endroit fantastique où venir faire une pause hors du temps dans un environnement incroyable. En entrant dans la maison, j’ai été immédiatement séduite... read more par le charme et l’authenticité des lieux; chaque pièce de décoration est unique et a certainement sa propre histoire. En passant sur la terrasse, j’ai été éblouie par la vue sur la vallée et les collines de Shimba. Une vue dont on ne se lasse pas! Pour un week-end plus reposant ,J’ai réservés les services du chef Ali et je n’ai pas été déçue : il a su ravir mes papilles.John maîtrise indéniablement l’art d’accueillir des invités. Il a véritablement à cœur de faire de notre séjour, une expérience agréable et mémorable et je dirais que c’est une réussite !Merveilleuse expérience que je recommande à tous !

  A remarkable place. Few like it anywhere in Kenya. Old, serene, gorgeous views, overlooking the elephant reserve. Just outside the town of Kwale, and about 60 min drive from Diani.

  My fiancé and I loved this place so much. The photos don’t do it justice.It’s a beautiful drive on GOOD roads.The lodge is in a secluded and safe location.

  John was a wonderful host. The location and layout of the house is beautiful.

  Wow, wirklich tolle Unterkunft!!! Sehr zu empfehlen.

  Lovely place with an incredible view!Second time I was here, and would definately recommend it if you are looking for a serene getaway.

  Starting with the positive, the view at this place is really unbeatable, amazing views across the valley below, and we even spotted some elephants in the distance. Secondly, the host... read more Said & cook Ali were very accommodative and even prepared nice vegan meals for us for a good value, it was very much appreciated (thanks, Ali!). On the less enjoyable side, it seemed there was more time without than with power, and power outage here means no running water at all. The pool was also not usable, it hadn't been cleaned or chlorinated and was more of a pond; in general the compound could use a bit of looking after. There was only a very short walk available in the vicinity, so we mostly enjoyed the terrace with the beautiful views. The host Said did try his best to accommodate us. Thank you for hosting us!

  This place seems a fairy tale, the bedrooms with the windows and the view. Its wonderfull!! Pool, amazing view, good food and nice hospitality from the workers. Totally advice. Thank... read more you John and Said for being so kind 🙂

  The view was stunning, the chef cooked delicious food, the staff were attentive. Couldn't wish for a better stay.Also feeding bush babies and petting dog and cats were spectacular.

  This place is amazing. The views, the staff, everything is fantastic. We extended our stay.

  Pumzika tu! is a great place and John and his team are wonderful hosts. Of course, the house has even more potential, could do with some minor renovations, and the... read more reality of infrastructure in Kenya plays its part (water shortages, power cuts, etc.). However, anyone who likes peace and quiet, nature, unbeatable views, and delicious local food will really appreciate this place. As a family with two small children, we felt very comfortable and had a wonderful time. Asante sana!

  Nous avons passé une nuit dans cette merveilleuse maison sur les hauteurs de Kwale.La maison est incroyablement bien décorée, on s’y sent très bien, très rapidement. John et son équipe... read more sont très serviables et accueillants.Si je dois retenir une seule chose de ce magnifique logement, c’est la vue à couper le souffle sur le sanctuaire des éléphants et la forêt kényane, on ne s’en lasse pas.Un super rapport qualité prix, je conseille à tous et à toutes. En particulier pour les amoureux de nature et de calme.
