Perched on the southern edge of Nairobi National Park, just a short drive from Kenya’s bustling capital, Ololo Safari Lodge is a true hidden gem. This boutique, family-owned lodge blends the comfort and character of a country home with the raw beauty of Africa’s wildlife—making it a unique and unforgettable gateway to safari life.
Whether you're arriving straight from Nairobi’s international airport or ending your safari with a restful retreat, Ololo welcomes you with personalised service, effortless style, and the sense that you’ve found your home away from home.
What makes Ololo truly special is its location. While most safari lodges are deep in the bush, Ololo sits just 45 minutes from Nairobi’s city centre—yet feels like a world away. Overlooking the Nairobi National Park, the lodge offers panoramic views of open plains where giraffes, buffalo, zebras, and even lions roam freely.
Guests can enjoy game drives just minutes from their door, and it’s not uncommon to spot wildlife right from the lodge’s garden or pool deck.
Ololo is more than just a lodge—it’s a restored colonial-era farmhouse with soul and style. Each room is uniquely designed with a blend of African materials, vintage finds, and modern comfort. The owners’ love for detail and hospitality shines through in every corner.
Accommodation options include:
All rooms are en-suite and feature thoughtful touches like natural textiles, cozy furnishings, and beautiful garden or park views.
What sets Ololo apart is its relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. You’re not just a guest here—you’re part of the family. Whether sharing stories around the firepit, enjoying a farm-to-table meal, or sipping a drink as giraffes stroll by, every moment feels warm, intimate, and unhurried.
The team offers tailored service without formality—think barefoot luxury with heart.
Ololo’s kitchen is one of its most celebrated features. Much of the produce comes from the onsite organic farm, including fresh vegetables, herbs, and eggs. Meals are creative, seasonal, and served with flair—whether you're dining in the open-air pavilion, on the lawn under the stars, or in the cozy farmhouse dining room.
Expect dishes that fuse local ingredients with international inspiration—healthy, delicious, and always memorable.
