“The Great Rift Valley Lodge boasts spectacular views and a challenging golf course, reportedly one of the best in Africa; families, in particular, benefit from dedicated children's clubs. While the gardens and pool area are definite highlights, I noted some reports of inconsistent service and food quality. Overall, it's a destination with much to offer, but managing expectations is key.”
