We went to the Dream of Africa hotel for a week in mid June, we had a fantastic time especially because we got a £1000+ holiday for half price- this was to try and lure the tourists back after the troubles earlier in the year.

DREAM OF AFRICA Before I write a review of our two week stay at this outstanding intimate hotel, I would like to stress to all potential visitors to Kenya that the past troubles do not effect visitors and never has. Kenya relies very much on tourism, and is as safe as ever. They need us !!! Everything at this Hotel... more

For Safaris etc. I recommend you get in touch with... more

Where do you start with a review on this fantastic hotel? The staff are amazing, the rooms extremely comfortable and your every whim catered for. From the Relations Manager (Nicola) to the Head Waiter and Butler (Dola and Timothy) right down to the pool boys, army of waiters and cleaning staff. They are relaxed, polite, funny and great company. Nothing... more

We have just returned from a week at this wonderful hotel. Our suite was certainly 5 star & Michael kept our room extremely clean - little touches like folding our clothes, putting the magazines & books in a tidy pile, flowers on the bed after making in the morning, etc. The food was excellent and extremely healthy. The staff were... more
