Off-grid cabins · Kenya

Designed for real rest.

Small cabins on quiet farms, two to four hours from Nairobi. No reception, no wifi, no neighbours in sight. Just two nights to switch off.

Get out of the city

Not a lodge. Not another house out of town.

The city is burning us out, and most weekend places near Nairobi are fully booked, party venues, or just another house with a different view.

Tũra is different. We place one small, beautifully made cabin in a quiet corner of a working farm or forest, then get out of your way. You bring food and the people you like. We handle everything else.

Real rest, no logistics.

Two cabins. Same quiet.

Every Tũra cabin is built to the same standard. The view changes from site to site; the price doesn't.

Why switch off

Two nights is enough to feel it.

Hybrid work has made midweek escapes possible. Good roads have brought the quiet places closer. What's been missing is somewhere built only for rest.

No screens asking for your attention. Firelight instead of a TV. Birdsong instead of traffic. Slow mornings on the deck with nowhere to be. Come for a weekend, or take a Tuesday off and have the place to yourself.

Add a little extra.

Optional, bookable ahead, and delivered to your cabin before you arrive.

Provisions basket

Firewood, local produce, breakfast staples and a cook kit, waiting for you.

Tũra meal box

Ready-to-cook meals made with our partners at Lekki & Zeti.

Wellness

For landowners

Let your land earn while it rests.

We fund, place and run portable cabins on a small corner of your land, and pay you a share of every night sold. Your land stays yours.

Good questions

Before you go.

When can I book?

Our first cabins open in Sagana in early 2027, with Naro Moru following mid-year. Join the waitlist and you'll get first pick of dates before bookings open to everyone.

Where exactly are the cabins?

On private farms and forest land around Sagana and Naro Moru. We share the exact location and directions once you've booked, so each place stays quiet.

Is there wifi or phone signal?

There's no wifi, on purpose. Phone signal varies by site, and we'll tell you what to expect before you arrive.

What should I bring?

Food, clothes for cool evenings, and the people you'd like to switch off with. Linen, towels, firewood to start, cookware and toiletries are provided. Or add a provisions basket and bring even less.

How do I get there?

By car. Sagana is under two hours from Nairobi and Naro Moru is a comfortable half-day. Roads are good, and we'll send clear directions for the last stretch.

Is it good for the land?

Cabins sit on skids, not foundations, so nothing is permanently built. They run on solar and rainwater, with composting toilets. And every night you stay pays the family who owns the land.

Is there a minimum stay?

Two nights. It takes that long to properly slow down.
