Have Breakfast With A Giraffe

Though we all have our Into The Wild fantasies, not everyone is built for living out of a van. Sure, it's awfully romantic to leave town with nothing but the clothes on your back, but when it comes down to it, we want to bring along our luggage—swim suit, sandals, and all. Want to experience the best of both worlds, in a completely wild, utterly luxurious setting? Book a trip to Giraffe Manor, where the animals are friendly and the digs are to die for.

Why We Love It!

Giraffe Manor is set on 12 acres of private land just 20 kilometers from Nairobi city center. The hotel is shielded by the indigenous forest, which stretches far beyond the grounds and is home to many different species, including warthogs, bushbuck, dik dik and (of course!) giraffes. It's a safari-like setting, with state-of-the-art accommodations.

Get A Room

Built in 1932, the manor retains much of its vintage charm. The building, which was modeled after a Scottish hunting lodge, has six double bedrooms, complete with four poster beds, antique furnishing, and cozy (yet chic) decor. But you know what makes it even better? The rare Rothschild Giraffes feel just at home at the Manor as you do, and are prone to wandering into the dining room and sitting areas. Say hi to your fellow travelers!

The Good News...

Giraffe Manor is part of the Tamimi hotel group, which has time and again shown their commitment to preserving African wildlife and offering sustainable travel destinations. When you stay at the eco-friendly Giraffe Manor, a percentage of your accommodation charge is automatically donated to the African Fund for Endangered Wildlife, which has set up a Giraffe Centre as a breeding place for the endanger (and beloved) Rothschild Giraffe. The Centre also operates programs for Kenyan school children, ensuring that the next generation cares every bit as much about these majestic creatures as they do.

Price Check

Rooms at Giraffe Manor run around $360 per person per night. Find out more—or book your stay—by clicking here.
