Loldia House

Overview

Nestled in the Great Rift Valley, Loldia House offers a serene retreat where guests can savor the essence of Kenyan country living. Situated in the northwestern region of Lake Naivasha, this age-old farmhouse is renowned for its unmatched hospitality. The ranch, where the house resides, boasts diverse wildlife, making night drives a must-experience. Additionally, guests can embark on game walks within the ranch or enjoy serene boat rides on Lake Naivasha.

The main house is surrounded by quaint cottages, infusing Loldia with a familial charm. The tantalizing aroma of home-cooked meals wafts through the air, enticing guests to gather around a roaring fireplace. Established on an ancient farm, Loldia House sits gracefully on the shores of Lake Naivasha, where leisure is defined by poolside relaxation, breathtaking views, invigorating game drives, and rejuvenating treatments from the spa, and its strategic location, a mere two-hour drive from Nairobi, ensures easy accessibility from the city’s international airport.

Rooms

Loldia House features charming country-style en-suite rooms located in both the main house and the picturesque garden cottages. This serene retreat combines the comfort of home with the beauty of nature, making it an ideal getaway for those seeking relaxation and tranquility.

Within the original family home, there is one elegantly furnished en-suite double room, perfect for couples or solo travelers looking for a cozy and intimate setting. Just a short stroll away, three guest cottages await, each thoughtfully designed to house two separate en-suite rooms. These cottages provide a delightful blend of privacy and comfort, making them suitable for families, friends, or small groups traveling together.

In addition to the cottages, Loldia House boasts two luxurious suites that offer breathtaking views across the lake. These suites are designed to provide an unparalleled level of comfort and elegance, with spacious interiors, plush furnishings, and large windows that frame the stunning natural scenery. Guests staying in these suites can enjoy the serene beauty of the lake from the comfort of their own private retreat.

Amenities

The main house boasts a spacious dining room, a cozy sitting area, and a verandah that offers captivating views of both Lake Naivasha and Mount Longonot. Adjacently, an infinity pool is nestled between two venerable fig trees, presenting mesmerizing vistas across the lake.

The spa sanctuary, located beside the pool, provides an array of rejuvenating treatments, from facials and body scrubs to massages, manicures, and pedicures.

Loldia House is committed to sustainability and, in this spirit, furnishes each of their rooms with ‘Cinnabar Green’ toiletries: shampoo, conditioner, body wash, soap, and lotion. Not only are these amenities refilled in eco-friendly metal canisters to minimize plastic waste, but they are also handcrafted in Kenya using all-natural ingredients, harmonizing with the delicate environment. We encourage guests to use these local products over personal ones. Should you wish to take a piece of this experience with you, these toiletries are available for purchase in the gift shop.

For the convenience of all guests, rooms are equipped with 220/240 UK Volt outlets, perfect for charging cameras and phones. And for those needing to stay connected, Wi-Fi access is available in the main communal areas.
