Nigel Tisdell, Evening Standard: "not all stars escape to the Caribbean - the smart ones disappear into the African wilderness ... the mystical peace that awaits in a vast country such as Kenya. Ol Donyo Wuas doesn't even have a swimming pool yet the hideaway attracts a stream of honeymooners ... it is wonderfully remote, yet also intimate and well appointed..."
