Lalanasi Lodge: A Hidden Gem in Naro Moro My stay at Lalanasi Lodge in Naro Moro, Laikipia County was nothing short of magical. Nestled at the foothills of Mount Kenya, this intimate retreat offers the perfect blend of luxury and authentic wilderness experience. The accommodations expertly balance rustic charm with modern comforts. My cottage featured handcrafted furniture, a private veranda overlooking the lush gardens, and a surprisingly well-appointed bathroom with steaming hot water—a welcome luxury after long days exploring. The food deserves special mention. Chefs works wonders with locally-sourced ingredients, serving farm-to-table meals that showcase the best of Kenyan cuisine with international flair. What truly sets Lalanasi apart is its staff. From manager Mr. Yona’s encyclopedic knowledge and Mike’s warm hospitality at reception, the attention to detail was impeccable. The guided hikes by a local Kikuyu with profound knowledge of Mount Kenya's ecology, were highlights of my trip. For those seeking authentic, sustainable luxury in one of Kenya's most breathtaking regions, Lalanasi Lodge delivers an experience that lingers in your memory long...

The only noise I heard was either the birds chirping, the trees rustling or the soft waves on the dam. And that was music to my ears. This place just takes away any anxiety you might have, gives you time to reflect and self-introspect. I highly recommend this place, for family time, team bonding, or just getting in touch with oneself. Worth every penny. The staff were so welcoming and helpful and made the whole experience stress free. This is one of those places that becomes your secret go to destinations. Thank you Lalanasi for the...
