THE SARUNI

THE LOCATION
Riverside Drive is one of Nairobi’s most secure, serene, and prestigious addresses — quietly tree-lined, walkable, and anchored by the city’s diplomatic community.

• Walking distance to the German Embassy, Netherlands Embassy, and Ugandan High Commission
• 5 minutes to Sarit Centre and Westgate Mall
• 10 minutes to Gigiri (UN complex)
• 9.8 km to KICC; 21.7 km to JKIA
• Surrounded by top international schools, hospitals, and Nairobi’s best restaurants (Talisman, Le Grenier à Pain)

This consistent diplomatic and expatriate demand is exactly what drives The Saruni’s strong rental performance and recession-proof occupancy.

WHY THE SARUNI
Most Nairobi developments maximize sellable square metres. The Saruni did the opposite — nearly half the residences of comparable buildings on the same footprint. That’s the entire thesis: privacy, light, air, and silence, in a city that rarely delivers all four at once.
For owner-occupiers, it’s a sanctuary. For investors, the address commands premium rents from diplomats and corporate executives who prioritise security and prestige — the kind of tenant who renews.
