My stay at the Pinewood was amazing. Although the public areas are a little bit dated the quality of the rooms and the exceptional service by all the staff was above my expectations. From the gardeners to the chefs everyone goes out of their way to make your stay very memorable. I am sure if you choose the Pinewood you won’t be disappointed. I will return for sure! Great job everyone, especially the owner for creating such a special place with special people.

Be aware of Credit Card Fraud
We where 2 couples that stayed 4 nights at Pinewood in end of February . Location, food, staff attention and infrastructure is top notch. UNFORTUNATELY, the experience was completely destroyed when we returned home to Norway and learned that we had been charged twice for the stay on our cards. Immediately, we contacted the hotel in good faith and asked them to refund us. After 8 weeks with several e-mails and phones we have not received the refund as promised by the Hotel Resident Manager Pamela Mshai. Consequently, we where left with no other choice than to report the case as fraud to bank and fiscal police.

Die ganze Anlage ist sehr gepflegt; der Garten so, wie man sich einen tropischen Garten vorstellt. Die Zimmer haben alles, was man braucht. Besonders schön ist die große Terrasse, wo man ganz im privaten entspannen kann. Das Personal sehr freundlich und das Essen ausgezeichnet und abwechslungsreich.
