There is lovely little place i visited a while back, so beautiful and extremely affordable... Pinklakeman Eco Lodge.
This little Kenyan paradise is located 127 km from Nairobi, along the Nairobi-Nakuru Highway, about a km from the highway.
A place where you can kick back and relax, where there is the African feel. Especially if you into open space and plenty of fresh air, this is the place to be.
The place has wooden cottages surrounded by greenery, natural hot springs. So don't forget your swimming clothes if you want to enjoy these natural jacuzzis!
Lake Elementaita is close by, so the scenery is perfect. Go bird watching, hot air ballooning or just take a walk in the wild.
We went for a hike, so carry comfortable shoes if you want to do the same. A pullover too, it gets chilly in the evening. The best part was the jacuzzis, the natural hot springs. Amazing!
The rates are affordable, very affordable.
You get breakfast, dinner is usually African food... Nyama Choma... that's roast meat. They usually roast a whole goat for you on the spit - for an extra price though. Mouth watering!
Vegetarians are welcome, too.
If you are a party animal: carry your own alcohol.
Though they do lay out a bar if told in advance.
This place is perfect for the complete African experience. Check it out people! And relax, the place is very safe.
