Garden of Life | Informal Campsite

We enjoyed the peaceful place for some nice restdays in this beautiful garden full of trees with different fruits and chicken around. Depending on the season, you can buy different ecological products.
Taabu&Mario are great and helpful hosts with brilliant projects to support the village.
You are welcome to donate their projects instead of a campingfee.

I‘m traveling since 4 month through Africa with my motorbike! Because of the many different and beautiful trees, plants, flowers, wonderful healing tree and butterflies which make this ECO Lodge so spezial ! The place was so calm and quiet that you can relax and meditate.
The owner and the stuff are always friendly, they do everything to make you really feel very good!
Always fresh cooking with fruits and vegetables from the own garden.
Each room and Banda has a different special decoration! The whole place and salt water pool are always very clean !

Nice campground with a huge garden. We waited for our car to arrive in mombasa and stayed in total about 2-3 weeks here. Agnes and Mario are amazing cooks and will prepeare a variety of swahili and swiss dishes. There is also a well equipped garage and Mario can contact you with a trustworthy mecanic if you have some troubles with your car. Everything has a certain price, so better ask in advance. It's really worth a visit though.

Actually closed.
Very nice place. 1250Ksh per nigth both.
The owner is living there sonif you call him it is possible to stay there for several nigths.
Meal and other things are very expensive. We paid 130$ for two nights with breakfast and dinner. The food was good but expensive looking that you eat that at your own campsite and they charge you as you were in a restaurant. So it’s better just to go there and enjoy the place and if you are going to eat or some thing ask the price

Arrived in the paradise. Very nice campsite under many trees. Everything the camper's heart desires is fulfilled by Mario and Agnes with their team. There are organic fruits and juices from the park, a clean saltwater pool with beautiful loungers, very clean toilets with showers, bath towels and much more. We have been traveling through Kenya for over 2 months, this is the most beautiful camp site so far. The price is 1500 schilling for 2 persons with mobile home and electricity. every parking lot has its own private space with electricity. Also nice bandas available. The place is closed to the sea, you will not miss it because it is so quiet, peaceful and secure here and no beachboys are bothering you. highly recommended

Probably the best campsite in Kenya. The camp is comparable with European standards with private spaces with light and electricity. We enjoyed a day by the pool, a village walk with Agnes and a trip to Shimba hills. The Indian Ocean is also close by. All in all highly recommendable.

Probably the campsite in Kenya with the highest standards. It’s comparable with European standards and with all the facilities you would expect from that. We where the only visitors and enjoyed a day by the pool.

We stayed at Time out art camp for 4 days. Mario was extremely helpful, staff friendly. All amenities as previously discussed. The pool was bliss in the heat as it has not started to rain yet. This was a nice first stop for us in Kenya.

Report Check-In

This camp is situated 10 km from the beach and is fenced and secured. You will find bandas and cottages next to camping. The spots are close to eachother, but have power and a light. It has a restaurant and swimming pool and showers, which the staff told, where only cold showers. There is also wifi. We haven’t asked for the prices as we didn’t. This was due to it missing a nice vibe. Although the camp is better equipped and organised, we rather stayed at the beach at Tweega with crappy facilties.

Nice camping in a lush green garden under mangotrees. Choose your parkingspot carefully because of the falling mangos. Mario the Swiss owner ist very helpful.
The salt swimmingpool ist very nice, but you can only use if there aren't any seminarguests. The location is next to a village.
