Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp

Horrible! A few friends had gone and even decided to change their hotel! From what I heard the place stank and almost all of the pictures you see on social media are photoshopped. The tents are leaky and cold and are quite dirty. Everything was a disaster!

My family and I had an amazing one day stay at Naivasha Crescent Island Camp which exceeded our expectations. This charming campsite not only provided us with a place to stay, but also served as a gateway to a peaceful, breathtakingly beautiful world. The friendly and helpful staff made us feel like part of their family as soon as we arrived. With stunning views that are both a visual feast and a spiritual soother, the camp is located in an absolutely gorgeous area on the Lake Naivasha Shows. After an exciting day of exploring, guests could expect a comfortable and well-appointed stay that would guarantee a good night's sleep. Proximity to the stunning beauty of Lake Naivasha and diverse fauna was without a doubt the highlight of our trip. It was refreshing and revitalizing to be able to relax and reconnect with nature in such a peaceful setting. In conclusion, for anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable getaway, I highly recommend Naivasha Crescent Island Camp. This campsite offers the perfect combination of rustic charm, coziness and friendliness - perfect for a quiet getaway or family trip. It is a gem that perfectly captures the essence of Kenya's breathtaking scenery.

It was the second time we were visiting and Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp did not disappoint! This time round we stayed in the tents closer to the Lake and we could hear the hippos grazing late at night. The food was excellent and there was a wide variety to chose from. We carried a packed lunch on the day we visited Hell’s Gate. We all came back with half of what had been packed. The Chef and his team outdid themselves. The tents are very spacious and beautifully furnished complete with tea/coffee making stuff and a hot water bottle for those cold nights. The staff were very courteous and at hand to help. When two members of our party forgot some valuable items in their rooms when we checked out, we were called and we drove back to the Camp to collect the items. Lake Naivasha Crescent Camp will definitely remain our go to place when in Naivasha.

We stayed here one night while visiting the lake and the island. The place is a tented camp, so do not expect anything too fancy. Our tent was old, but clean. The hot water in the shower was not consistent, and since the tent had lots of little openings in the floor, it was quite cold at night. But the housekeeping staff had placed a warm water bottle in our bed before we turned it, which was lovely! Also the bed was comfy and had a warm blanket, so we could sleep very well despite the cold. The food was pretty okay. And the best part was that we could hear hippos behind our tent at night (don't worry there's an electric fence to keep them out of the premises!).

Stayed here in a 3 person tented cottage for one night during our safari. Staff were lovely and when we arrived monkeys were climbing all over our tent. The camp is definitely 3 star only, looking quite tired sadly. The beds were comfortable and all clean. The food was average. We were near the public camp site so a bit noisy but luckily all was quiet by about 8 pm. As it was a week night not sure if it would be this quiet on a weekend. Enjoyed the skiff ride over to Crescent island and walking with the animals there.
