We had a very relaxing few nights at Rondo Retreat, which we visited mainly for birding. The accommodations and food are simple, as advertised, but comfortable enough. The grounds and gardens are beautiful, though I do question the exotic plants introduced next to a vulnerable and protected rainforest ecosystem (hopefully they do not become invasive). We enjoyed watching the birds and monkeys from the grounds, including the juvenile African Crowned Eagle practicing his future monkey hunts around the property. I would note that the main server/reception person was a bit surly at times, and he seemed put off by some simple requests/questions, which was the only issue in an otherwise relaxing stay. A few tips from our experience: - You can fly from Nairobi to the Kakamega airstrip on Skyward express (Wilson Airport). It leaves/arrives quite early, but Rondo was accommodating. - If you are a serious birder, you can ask for Job's contact information (a very good local guide). - Although this isn't stated anywhere or offered, you can arrange to have an earlier breakfast if you'll be out birding early (e.g. 6am) and can get coffee/snacks when you come back (lunch isn't until 1pm). - There are some short, lovely forest paths behind Rondo and you can walk along the road, but otherwise you must have a guide to go further into the forest. - They don't offer alcohol but were fine with us bringing our own wine (should have brought some Tuskers!) - There is barely a cell signal and wifi only at the office, which is fine but good to know.
