Paradise Lost Resort

Paradise Lost Resort in Kiambu feels less like a traditional resort stay and more like a nature-and-adventure day escape with camping in a green, forested setting.

Nature-first setting: The standout here is the landscaped grounds with caves and a waterfall, giving your visit a “mini getaway” feel without going far from Nairobi. Many guests come specifically for the peaceful scenery and walking trails around the property.

Things to do on-site: Paradise Lost Resort focuses heavily on activities, including zip lining, horse riding, boat rides, archery, bike riding, picnics, grill rental, kids’ play areas, bonfires, and camping. It’s an easy place to fill a full day without needing to leave the grounds.

Food and breaks between activities: There is an on-site restaurant, which is convenient when you want to stay in the park atmosphere rather than drive out for meals. Outdoor seating and picnic-style pacing suit families and groups.

Location for quick escapes: Being on Kiambu Road makes it practical for a short break from Nairobi, and the caves and waterfall are the headline “nearby” attraction because they’re part of the same property experience. The Kiambu countryside feel (coffee-farm surroundings) adds to the sense of getting out of the city.

Extra fees may add up: Some visitors note that certain highlights and add-on activities can cost extra beyond basic entry, which may surprise budget-minded travelers. Planning ahead helps avoid frustration.

Basic facilities can be inconsistent: A few guests report that restrooms and wash points may not always be stocked to expectations during busy periods. Bringing essentials can be a practical backup.

Caves can be challenging: The cave area may be dark, wet, and slippery, so it’s not ideal for everyone. Closed shoes and a cautious pace matter, especially with kids.
