Positive: Our stay at Olive Lake Elementaita Lodge was exceptional from start to finish. From the moment we checked in, the reception staff was incredibly kind, welcoming, and professional. We stayed in one of the camps, which was very spacious and comfortable. The tents were as beautiful as advertised in their pictures. I especially loved sitting outside our room listening to the birds. The lodge is located in a peaceful, quiet environment. All you hear are lovely birds singing and the trees gently swaying in the breeze. It was total relaxation. The food was another highlight of our stay. The menu was great and every meal, including breakfast, was freshly prepared and felt deliciously homely. In the morning, we enjoyed a short walk to Lake Elementaita to see the beautiful flamingos, which was such a memorable experience. In the evening, the staff lit a fire outside and even joined us for a lovely chat, making the atmosphere feel warm and personal. The lodge is also conveniently located not far from the Nairobi–Nakuru highway. Despite the ongoing road construction and diversions, there are plenty of signs directing guests to the hotel, making it easy to find. Special thanks to all the staff for making our stay so memorable — Lucy the lovely waitress, Evans, Jimmy, and of course Chef Amos. Great service, wonderful hospitality, and an unforgettable experience. We would definitely return and highly recommend this lodge to anyone looking for peace, comfort, and genuine hospitality.
Negative: Nothing, just wished we stayed longer. But it could do with a written menu
Summary: The stay was Exceptional. But the staff made it memorable. Well done you!!!
