CHECK OUT By 10:00 am on the day of departure, unless another room is booked and paid for in accordance with the rates above. Please note that check-in/check-out times must be strictly adhered to due to the unique nature of the property. Giraffe Manor does not have a reception area or restaurant for guests to wait in. It is still very much like a family home. Should guests wish to arrive or depart outside of check-in times, The Retreat next door offers day rooms and day passes for access to all the wellness facilities and the restaurant, subject to availability. The Retreat is available to book twelve weeks prior to travel for guests staying at Giraffe Manor only; guests of Sala’s Camp, Sasaab and Solio Lodge may book further in advance.

GAME VIEWING VEHICLE Giraffe Manor has one open sided 4 x 4 vehicle for game viewing in Nairobi National Park. This is bookable on an exclusive basis only for guests checked-in at Giraffe Manor and The Retreat. The car is available between 6:00 am and 4:00 pm for single groups of up to six guests (the vehicle cannot be shared with other guests). We recommend pre-booking to ensure availability. Please note that Nairobi Park fees are not included, and game drives cannot be combined with arrival or departure transfers.

EXTERNAL MEALS Unfortunately, due to high occupancies and limited capacity we do not offer external meals (breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner) to non-staying guests.
