A wonderful getaway with outstanding service
The lodge also offers excellent value for money, with quality service, comfortable accommodations, and a relaxing atmosphere that makes the stay well worth the cost. Overall it was an amazing experience, and we will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended!

Good ambience with very bad service.
The guest relations staff was impatient from the start — she left us waiting mid-tour of the rooms and handed us off to another staff member without explanation. The attitude throughout our stay, from the front office to the restaurant, felt like we were pushing to be served rather than being welcomed as guests.
For families with young children, this place falls short in several key ways:
Not baby/family-friendly: There is no playground on site. The sand area where kids can play is right next to an unbarricaded river source — a genuine safety hazard that kept us on high alert the entire time.
Unexpected charges for infants and toddlers: We were charged for a baby cot for a 1-year-old sleeping in the parents' room — something almost every other facility waives. Three other children, all under 6, were billed at full adult rates. No flexibility whatsoever.
⏱️ Extremely slow service: It took nearly 2 hours to get simple baby fruits (an avocado and a banana). When we tried to fetch them ourselves, we were told they had to be delivered to the room — so they could add a room service charge on top.
They ruined the kids' birthday: We had brought a birthday cake to celebrate the children. We agreed to pay the Ksh 1,000 corkage fee, and arranged for the cake to be presented after breakfast. After keeping us waiting for 30 minutes, the front office lady — Mercy — came to inform us the cake would not be presented because all the waiters were busy. We ended up cutting the birthday cake in our rooms. How long does it take to present a cake and make children's day special? This was heartbreaking and completely unacceptable.
The one saving grace is the ambience — the property is genuinely beautiful with lush greenery. But beautiful surroundings cannot compensate for unfriendly staff, safety concerns, and rigid, overpriced service.
I would not recommend Brook Lodge to families with young children. There are better-value, more family-conscious options out there.

Brooks Lodge & Spa — Our Recent Client Stay
Great service, relaxing atmosphere, and spotless rooms all through.
Meals were fresh, and the spa experience was a perfect added touch.
As JP-Safaris Kenya, we appreciate consistency — Brooks Lodge delivered.
Definitely a spot we’ll keep recommending to our guests.
