Chui Lodge

The cottages are set in a beautiful neatly clipped garden, the acacia trees adds the beauty to the Lodge's cottages. Amazing furniture uniquely done, I was told they're all done locally. You will enjoy a wide range of international cuisine here. I enjoyed viewing wildlife while driving through the conservancy just from the entrance. 💯 Recommended when visiting Naivasha.

This is an absolute treasure, a place to fully relax and enjoy your surroundings. We have visited Chui Lodge on many occasion, it never ceases to amaze! Staff are attentive, food is excellent. Our “go to” place, escape from Nairobi. Don’t miss out !

Chui Lodge was one of three accommodations we stayed in while on Safari in Kenya. Unlike the other camps, we were not able to keep our guide with us and had to use one of the guides from the lodge. (The lodge and the conservancy it’s on are all run by the same owners) After the initial surprise, this turned out to be really great thing, as the provided guides was incredibly familiar with the location and terrain. At check in, we were greeted with cold towels and welcome drinks. Our bags were carried and we were checked in quickly at the front desk and shown to our hut. Calling it a hut is somewhat deceptive, since it featured a four poster bed and full bathroom. The rooms have a lot of charm and character, with hand painted windows. The bed has a mosquito net but it’s really unnecessary unless you plan on leaving your door open. My only complaints would be that the number to call for service was only told to us verbally and not written down anywhere, and this was the only accommodation on our safari that didn’t offer us a wake up call with coffee. When we mentioned an early morning, they asked us to go to the dining room for coffee. (Really very minor gripes) We had the all inclusive option. Food and meal service were excellent. Attentive without being overbearing. Our favorite part was al fresco lunch in front of the watering hole, watching the wildlife. All meals were multiple courses - you will not leave hungry. The heated pool was also a highlight. Definitely worth a few hours between meals and activities. Comfy lounge chairs look out over the watering hole. The activities offered were nothing short of amazing. This is where Chui Lodge really shone. Arriving in Kenya, I didn’t know what to expect. ‘Would we see any animals?’ Was a worry for me. Well, I didn’t need to worry, we saw hyenas within 1 minute of our first game drive. While the conservancy did not have all of the big five, this was the place where we saw the highest density of animals. No boring bits during game drives. We also got exceedingly lucky on our very first game drive and had a leopard cross the road right in front of our vehicle. In addition to game drives, they planned a bush walk for us, sundowners on both evenings we were there and a bush breakfast on our second day. And every single thing was phenomenal. Watching the sun go down by a warm campfire, overlooking a landscape filled with wildlife, while having a drink and freshly made snack. Just the best. This lodge also offers boat trips on lake Naivasha. We had done the boat ride with a different operator before arriving but would definitely do it at Chui Lodge instead next time. We’d recommend this place to anyone going to the lake Naivasha area. It’s was an excellent introduction to safari and just such a relaxing place. And if offered, do the flower farm tour! It’s at a rose breeding facility and was amazingly informative. We didn’t think we’d like it but ended up really enjoying it. And lastly a reminde

Very nice reception on arrival, very friendly staff , tasty meal too. i also enjoyed my early morning game drive with our informative guide james, accompanied a boat ride and bush breakfast to end our morning. highly recommend chui lodge..

The lodge is the perfect escape from the chaos of the city. The staff were friendly and helpful, food was delicious. They have the fluffiest pillows I've felt, the beds are a nest of softness. Definitely would go back again. They've paid attention to details to the lodge, restaurant and the houses designs.

The steak was a perfect medium, Big thank you to All, The next morning was chilly, the boat ride after the game drive was amazing, the fresh air, i can still feel it all. Chui house was amazing, the setup was cozy with the fireplace and cool at the same time. James was explaining everything. He even knew the plants that were around, Truly Knowledgeable.

Staff and guides were so friendly and helpful, made our stay so enjoyable and comfortable. Rooms were spacious, clean and well-maintained. Its location was perfect beautiful senary and attractions. Their food was delicious, fresh and had a great variety of options.

The workers were very friendly and I felt at home during my short stay. The place is quiet and has so much tranquility. Loved the fact that they were all ready to help and WiFi was always available. Sighted a couple of animals during the night which was phenomenal to experience. The food was amazing

I cannot recommend this lodge enough. The attention to detail, the friendly staff, the delicious food, the wonderful bush breakfast and even nicer sundowners among animals; the boat ride on the lake with such an experienced driver who names st least 30 birds- the list goes on. Great value for money!
