Spacious safari villa with 3 suites, gardens, and wildlife views on Lake Naivasha.

Yellow House is a luxurious villa at Sanctuary Farm on Lake Naivasha, perfect for families or groups. With three en-suite bedrooms, generous living areas, and private gardens, it blends comfort with nature. Guests can enjoy open-plan dining, a cozy TV lounge, and a wide verandah that looks out onto wildlife and the surrounding sanctuary.

We are a family-run conservancy and live on the farm, so one of us will always be around to help out. We share our phone number during check-in, and guests are welcome to call or send a message at any point of their stay with us.

Sanctuary Farm is located on the shores of Lake Naivasha, in the heart of Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. Guests can explore:
🌊 Lake Naivasha — enjoy boat rides, birdwatching, and hippo sightings just minutes away
🦓 Sanctuary Farm Conservancy — zebras, giraffes, antelope, and more roam freely across 450 acres
🍴 Kijiko Restaurant — our on-site farm-to-table dining experience, serving fresh, seasonal meals made from locally sourced ingredients
🛶 Nearby activities — horseback safaris, night game drives, cycling, and more, all available to book at Sanctuary Farm
🌋 Hell’s Gate National Park (5-minute drive) — dramatic cliffs, gorges, hot springs, and cycling among wildlife
🏞️ Crescent Island (5-minute boat ride) — a walking safari where you can stroll alongside giraffes and gazelles
🗻 Mount Longonot (30-minute drive) — hike an extinct volcano with panoramic Rift Valley views

Guests enjoy full access to:
🏠 The entire Mabati House
🦓 The 450-acre private wildlife conservancy (daytime only; no walking at night due to hippos)
🚤 Lake Naivasha’s shoreline, just a 5-minute walk away with boat rides available

3 en-suite bedrooms with double beds
Bathtub
Fully equipped kitchen + chef’s kitchenette
Kitchen bar with stools
Pantry
Laundry room
Dining room with antique table for 10
TV lounge with retractable screen and library
Verandah with outdoor seating and west-facing courtyard

The easiest way to reach Yellow House is by car. Taxis and boda bodas (motorbike taxis) are available locally for shorter trips, but we recommend private transport for comfort and convenience.

As Sanctuary Farm is a private wildlife conservancy, a conservation fee of KES 1,000 per adult and 500 per child (free under 5) is charged upon arrival. This one-time fee supports our conservation efforts.

Please note that this is a family-run farm, not a hotel; we ask you to treat the house and grounds with respect.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks available at on-site restaurant, Kijiko.

Night guard closes the hippo gate at 6:45 pm, so please notify host for late returns.

Feedback on Yellow House

Beautifully built property on Sanctuary Farm. Everything was extremely comfortable and we enjoyed access to wildlife at our doorstep. The only thing I would say needed improvement was the mattress on the baby cot and the showers in 2 of the bedrooms, which unfortunately were practically unusable as the shower heads were not working properly and virtually no water came directly down. Also, the temperature control on the shower could be improved to find a comfortable temperature that is not extremely hot or cold. The restaurant was lovely and we enjoyed the fresh food. If 'room service' could be an option (with an allocated vehicle for deliveries) I think this could significantly improve the experience. Thanks for hosting us! Will definitely reccommend!
