About the host

Hosted by Linda VanderMarliere

Host profile image
Originally from California, now sharing time between CA and Kenya. I fell in love with Kenya's people and wildlife on my first visit many years ago. We assist the community by sponsoring young girls to obtain an education who without our support would not be attending school. Please visit our website for additional details. www.womenchildrenandeducation@gmail.com

Why they chose this property

Located on the hill above Ngoswani Center and next to Olarro Conservancy. Amazing views of the valley and beyond. A peaceful and authentic way of life in the bush surrounded by nature. 10 fenced acres, 26 non-fenced, solar-powered, borehole, and solar water heaters make for off-grid living. Highly recommend a 4x4 vehicle. Quiet evenings by the fire pit except for the snort of a zebra or lion's roar outside the fence. Wildlife waterhole just outside the fenced property.

What makes this property unique

Dazzle Hill is a private compound we call home. 3 independent cottages, full-time security staff, gardener, and room steward offering complimentary laundry service. A simple kitchen for your use or we can provide you with a Chef at an additional fee. R/T transportation from Nairobi is available and a day's outing in the Masai Mara Reserve with our land cruiser and driver/guide. Contact us for pricing and details. It's a short 30-minute drive to the Masai Mara National Reserve. Sundowners are shared on our upper sundowner deck hosting amazing views and evenings around the fire pit making for an authentic bush experience.
