Other exciting area activities include balloon safaris over the Serengeti, birdwatching for the area’s over 500 bird species, shopping for locally crafted goods, participating in cultural activities, mountain biking, canoeing, horseback riding, golfing, scuba-diving, and snorkeling. Several sports clubs in the area offer tennis, squash, hockey, and volleyball.

Exuding colonial splendor, the reception areas and guestrooms welcome adventurers from far and near. Both indoor and outdoor dining options abound at Onsea House, whether on the veranda or in the breakfast room. Carefully manicured gardens include numerous fruit trees such as banana, lemon, lime, mango, papaya, passion, and more.
