Kokoo’s Guest House is nothing short of spectacular. The rooms, staff and beautiful grounds were top notch and exceeded our expectations. The chef was superb. My three young grandchildren who are picky eaters even loved the food — that’s how good it was! The rooms were clean and spacious with a private bathroom and a quaint porch. The family room provided a great gathering space which felt like home. We loved our stay.

The Guest House in Kenya is nothing short of magical! The first thing I noticed was how serene it felt like an island of safe harbor to all who enter. It is very clean and the chef is fabulous! You can climb the water tower for a magnificent view of the area. By far, my favorite part is the Tree of Life sanctuary. The high vibration energy is palpable. It is the perfect space for safety, mediation, and inspiration.

I recently stayed at a charming guest house near the Maasai Mara, and it was truly a delightful experience. Nestled in a picturesque setting, this guest house offers an inviting and cozy atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. The service was exceptional, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and memorable.
The highlight of the visit was the fabulous family style food. Every meal was a feast featuring delicious. Home cooked dishes that perfectly complemented the surrounding landscape. It felt like sharing a meal with friends and the communal dining experience added a warm personal touch to my story.
Additionally, the guest house is ideally situated for safari enthusiasts. Its location provides easy access to the Maasai Mara, making it a fantastic base for exploring the wildlife and natural beauty of the area. Whether you are embarking on game drives or simply soaking in the stunning scenery, the guest house enhances the overall safari experience with its welcoming ambiance and thoughtful amenities.

The Guest House is an amazing place that is at once conveniently accessible and privately secure. It is beautifully landscaped and includes all the modern amenities of home. The sunrise and sunset viewing from the water tower is incredible, and the private bedrooms and showers offer tranquility. The social aspect is pleasant, too, with the living room and dining room connected to each other.
The host staff are extremely talented, especially the chef. I’ve never eaten so well and so healthy with a variety of 6 to 8 dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Truly, this is an opportunity to render valuable, life-changing service, as well as being safe and enjoying the comforts of home. It was obviously apparent that all locals honor and revere 100 Humanitarians as a reputable, selfless institution, striving to elevate a lives of local residents. Reciprocally, local Masai have allocated their personal lands for 100H service opportunities and accommodations.
A fringe benefit is that the Guest House is in close proximity to the world‘s foremost safari destination. How wonderful to render truly valuable service to others, and reciprocally be taken care of by local residents, and enjoying the culture and sightseeing opportunities. All of which make you a better person after the trip and before you departed.
