The villa had not been cleaned when we arrived which was at 10pm. We found the previous guest had forgotten several items inside, surfaces were dusty, and the fan in the living room was not working. Some lights did not work, and then the gas finished when we were there. I was of the impression that the house would be cleaned daily. Instead we learned that the owner of the villa expects visitors to pay extra for cleaning. It was terrible. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2020 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Olare Mara Kempinski Masai Mara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Olare-Mara-Kempinski-Masai-Mara.h5982297.Hotel-Information) > > [Turtle Bay Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Watamu-Hotels-Turtle-Bay-Beach-Club.h5481072.Hotel-Information) > > [Governors' Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Governors-Camp.h15044971.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Mara Safari Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Fairmont-Mara-Safari-Club.h1544563.Hotel-Information) > > [andBeyond Kichwa Tembo Tented Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-AndBeyond-Kichwa-Tembo-Tented-Camp-All-Inclusive.h48508310.Hotel-Information) > > [Muthu Lake Naivasha Country Club, Naivasha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nakuru-Hotels-Lake-Naivasha-Country-Club.h4489107.Hotel-Information) > > [Mara Intrepids Tented Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Mara-Intrepids-Tented-Camp.h4233348.Hotel-Information) > > [Flamingo Hill Tented Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/FLAMINGO-HILL-TENTED-CAMP.h48517186.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashnil Aruba Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Voi-Hotels-Ashnil-Aruba-Lodge.h12761761.Hotel-Information) > > [Ashnil Mara Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Ashnil-Mara-Camp.h12748836.Hotel-Information) > > [Mara Bush Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Mara-Bush-Camp.h9851393.Hotel-Information) > > [Sarova Lion Hill Game Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nakuru-Hotels-Sarova-Lion-Hill-Game-Lodge.h1507255.Hotel-Information) > > [Ol Tukai Lodge Amboseli](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amboseli-Hotels-Ol-Tukai-Lodge-Amboseli.h7050582.Hotel-Information) > > [Sentrim Amboseli Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amboseli-Hotels-Sentrim-Amboseli-Lodge.h9797169.Hotel-Information) > > [Fig Tree Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Fig-Tree-Camp.h1856048.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun N Sand Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mtwapa-Hotels-Sun-N-Sand-Beach-Resort.h22405447.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Mount Kenya Safari](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nanyuki-Hotels-Fairmont-Mount-Kenya-Safari.h1554906.Hotel-Information) > > [Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amboseli-Hotels-Amboseli-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h978634.Hotel-Information) > > [Rondo Retreat Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kakamega-Hotels-Rondo-Retreat-Centre.h22484572.Hotel-Information) > > [Treetops](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nanyuki-Hotels-Treetops.h11091551.Hotel-Information) > > [Kibo Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amboseli-Hotels-Kibo-Safari-Camp.h14826564.Hotel-Information) > > [Mara Serena Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Mara-Serena-Safari-Lodge.h526955.Hotel-Information) > > [Ngulia Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tsavo-Hotels-Ngulia-Safari-Lodge.h9817070.Hotel-Information) > > [Mara Engai Wilderness Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Mara-Engai-Wilderness-Lodge.h12423942.Hotel-Information) > > [Karen Blixen Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Karen-Blixen-Camp.h40597380.Hotel-Information) > > [Sarova Mara Game Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maasai-Mara-Hotels-Sarova-Mara-Game-Camp.h1558998.Hotel-Information) > > [Sentrim Elementaita Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nakuru-Hotels-Sentrim-Elementaita-Lodge.h9796572.Hotel-Information) > > [Salt Lick Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taita-Hills-Hotels-Salt-Lick-Safari-Lodge.h1737570.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [JetBlue Airways](https://www.expedia.co.uk/JetBlue-Airways-Flights.cB6.Travel-Guide-Airlines)
