The Great Rift Valley Lodge sits at about 7,000 feet, from which elevation it enjoys magnificent views to the west and east. The vistas stretch from the shimmering waters of Lake Naivasha to the jagged volcanic crater of Mount Longonot and, beyond, the sloping shoulders of the Aberdare Mountains – Kenya’s most important watershed.

The Great Rift Valley Lodge offers 21 twin and 9 double rooms, all with private balconies overlooking the spectacular valley floor. The rooms are located in spacious two- and three-storey blocks, and are beautifully furnished with large four-poster beds, handmade wooden furniture, African prints, and modern en suite bathrooms. Several of the rooms have interlinking doors that convert them into spacious family suites.

The social ‘heart’ of the Rift Valley Lodge is the clubhouse building, which offers fine dining and beautiful views from its panoramic restaurant and broad balconies. Around the clubhouse, the lush fairways and sparkling lakes of the 6,580-yard golf course fan out in different directions, all with sweeping views over the surrounding countryside. As well as all the facilities you would expect of a professional golf club, the clubhouse offers a comfortable restaurant, two bars, a gift shop with souvenirs and 'safari essentials’ and a luxurious lounge with a fireplace and satellite television for the use of lodge guests. Visitors can also take advantage of a wide variety of modern sports facilities, including a driving range and practice greens, two tennis courts, and a freeform swimming pool, as well as comprehensive corporate facilities, including three conference rooms and a business centre.
