As I set out to explore the beautiful Sigona Golf Club, located just 20 minutes from Nairobi on Naivasha Highway, I had high expectations based on the rave reviews I had heard. I arrived around noon, greeted by a stunning landscape adorned with lush green fairways and tranquil surroundings. It truly felt like a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The first impression was made by the warm and welcoming staff, especially a lovely attendant named Diana, who greeted me with a smile that was a perfect prelude to the day ahead. She guided me through the amenities and highlighted some recommended dishes from the clubhouse menu while we talked.
Deciding to warm up, I prefaced my golf outing with a delicious meal at the club. I sampled their signature grilled chicken salad, which was fresh, flavorful, and well-presented. The flavors danced on my palate, and at just KSh 1,200, it felt like a steal for the quality offered. Reviews had indeed raved about the food quality, and I concurred— the menu featured an excellent variety sure to satisfy even the pickiest of eaters.
After my meal, it was time to tee off! The 18-hole championship course was everything I had hoped for and more. The fairways were impeccably maintained, providing a perfect setting for both seasoned golfers and novices. Each hole offered its own challenging twists, yet the experience remained enjoyable, surrounded by beautiful scenery. It was clear why so many golfers recommend this place; the environment simply inspires confidence and relaxation.
Throughout my rounds, I experienced just how well-maintained the course was. I remembered a review that mentioned the excellent condition of the greens, and I was happy to find this opinion perfectly aligned with my experience. As I played, I took a moment to enjoy the view from the course. The lush vegetation surrounding the fairways added an extra layer of charm to the game. Sigona truly embodies the essence of golfing elegance and tranquility.
As I wrapped up my day, I strolled back to the clubhouse to enjoy a refreshing drink next to the inviting swimming pool area. This added luxury to my golfing experience and perfectly complemented the ambiance of the day. I met a few fellow golfers, all echoing the same sentiment—Sigona Golf Club is a hidden gem that offers a magical combination of hospitality, great food, and beautiful scenery.
If you're in Nairobi or planning a trip to Kiambu, I highly recommend visiting Sigona Golf Club for an unforgettable golf experience. Whether you’re here for the golf, the food, or the fantastic service, you will leave with memories that make you want to return.
