Security: Please be aware that due to our business with Diplomatic missions and other NGO's we have a security policy that only allows accredited taxis/transfers onto our property. Tuk Tuks and unknown motor cycles (Boda Bodas) will not be given access to the interior. We pride ourselves on privacy.
Transfers
We have had on a number of occassions incidences when Tuk Tuks and taxis claim to know the way to our place.
They convieniently get lost and end up charging clients far more than the quoted fare.
Our own transfer vehicles and drivers have been with us for years, they know the way and we trust them completely.
Upon booking you will receive a factsheet with all transfer prices and lots more.
Airbnb has a policy on bugs and insects. I doubt if there is anywhere in Africa or any other continent for that matter where you will not find some form of what we call Dudus. i.e Something that is small and moves or flies around. Could be anything from an ant to a grasshopper etc etc. At the moment there are swarms of locusts affecting the northern part of Kenya and our neighbours to the north Sudan and Somalia. We have not been affected here in any way but it is our duty as a host to inform guests of their existence.

About the host
Your host

Came to Kenya from Australia in 1972 after finishing the first of an eventual 7 overland trips across the Sahara desert from London to Kenya.
Once I saw the coast here I never had a permanent residence elsewhere.
Projects: In 1990 we started the now famed Funzi Furniture workshops in Tiwi
building beautiful furniture. We also design and build our own villas.
My personal hobbies are building cars from scratch.
Sabine arrived in Kenya 30 years ago after a successful career on the pro windsurfing tour.
She now has a squirrel rehabilitation hospital on our veranda.
We now have some fabulous professionally done videos of our property.
Airbnb does not allow us to show these until you have made a booking.
The moment you have booked ask us for the links to see what we have.
If after you have seen the videos and choose not to come then it is easy to cancel the booking.
We live in one of the most beautiful parts of the world I have ever found.
You will be made most welcome to come stay with us.
