The Manzili Collection
PRIVATE | EXCLUSIVE | LUXURY | AT YOUR OWN PACE
Where architecture meets intention and home meets wilderness. The Manzili Collection offers two private homes, each an exclusive experience tailored to your pace, a space to pause, reconnect, and share meaningful moments with your loved ones. The collection includes Manzili House in Nairobi, nestled in the leafy calm of Karen, where Swahili-inspired design meets stillness and art, and Manzili Mara on the edge of the Great Rift, perched high on the Siria Escarpment, where endless views stretch across the Maasai Mara. Each home is crafted with cultural integrity, shaped by the land, and built by local artisans. For those who travel to feel, not just to see.

Vanessa and George,
What an incredible place and experience! Everything was perfect from start to finish. Hospitality beyond belief. We felt so welcome, comfortable during our stay and can't wait to share our experience with others and come back ourselves. All of your recommendations and tips were amazing. We would like to take Henry home with us + have your daughter for all our future adventures. Thank you all for such an amazing experience and I can’t wait to see you in a few days in Lamu!
I can’t thank you enough for such a lovely evening at Manzili House. It was the perfect end to an incredible week at Arijiju, Wild Hill and Kale. We loved how this property also welcomes you into their private home and we so enjoyed getting to know you Vanessa and George. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so comfortable and enjoyable, Lots of love.
We had a big travel day to get here but what a wonderful treat to be able to rest and recover in this beautiful serene setting. Thanks Mark and your team for your wonderful hospitality.
In Manzili warmth, I found my stay,
A gift of kindness, light and grace,
Your open hearts, your peaceful space,
A home that welcomes a soul embrace,
With deepest thanks I leave today,
But part of me will always stay.
With so much love,
My father and I spent a few incredible days at Manzili House. The house is very beautifully designed built with traditional influences, by Lamu craftsmen. A lot of attention has been put into the details of the design and decoration. The rooms are spacious while intimate at the same time. We had some beautiful get-togethers on the roof terrace (which is shaded by acacia trees!). You can easily go walking around the village of Karen, and have a little swim in the pool afterwards. Our hosts and the staff were attentive and gracious..... unforgettable
I had the privilege of being the first guest upon arrival from New York and was immediately transported to Lamu because of the architecture. I had breakfast under the acacia canopy on the rooftop followed by a swim and was very sad to leave on my safari as I felt at home immediately. The place is spacious yet cozy and very peaceful. I highly recommend a stay there
