A Studio in Westlands. 48 sqm. Rooftop Cinema. Heated Pool. Restaurant. Café. Mini Golf. Padel Court. 24/7 Concierge. From KES 6.2M. The Income Asset That Lives Like a Hotel.
A studio apartment — 48 sqm — in an iconic high-rise in the heart of Westlands, rising between Karura Forest and the GTC skyline. Smartly laid out for maximum efficiency — the kitchen, dining, and living areas connected yet distinct, adapting to different moments of the day. This is the unit designed for one purpose above all others: income.
Rooftop heated infinity pool with Karura Forest views. Open-air rooftop cinema. On-site restaurant, café, mini-mart, and bar. Mini golf and padel court. Sky gym and yoga studio overlooking the GTC skyline. Sky garden bar with a second pool. Kids' play area and multifunctional lounge. 24/7 concierge. Full CCTV. 10 high-speed lifts. Full backup generator.
The amenity package is not residential — it is hospitality-grade. And that is precisely why the studio works as an investment: the building operates like a hotel. The studio earns like one.
The Income Numbers: 17% to 28% ROI
Unfurnished rent: KES 90,000/month — 17% gross ROI on the KES 6.2M entry price. The long-term tenant who wants a Westlands address with resort-level amenities pays KES 90,000/month and stays.
Furnished rent: KES 120,000/month — 23% gross ROI. The corporate tenant, the expatriate on a 6-month assignment, the relocating professional who needs a furnished Westlands apartment with a concierge, a gym, and a pool. Furnished studios in amenity-rich Westlands buildings command this rate — and the amenity package here exceeds anything currently on the market.
Airbnb rate: KES 8,000/night — 28% gross ROI at 60% occupancy. This is the number that makes the studio the highest-yield unit in the building. KES 8,000/night × 365 days × 60% occupancy = KES 1,752,000/year. On a KES 6.2M purchase price, that is a 28% gross return. The rooftop cinema, the heated pool, the restaurant, the mini golf — these are not just amenities. They are the listing photos that fill the Airbnb calendar.
KES 6.2M: The Lowest Entry Point into Westlands' Most Amenity-Rich Building
At KES 6.2M, the studio is the way into a building that would otherwise require KES 7.5M–23M. The buyer at KES 6.2M accesses the same rooftop pool, the same cinema, the same restaurant, the same concierge, and the same Westlands address as the buyer at KES 23M. The amenities do not scale with the apartment size. The studio owner gets the full package.
48 sqm is generous for a Westlands studio. The standard Westlands studio measures 25–38 sqm. At 48 sqm, this studio has the proportions to function as a genuine living space — not just a bed with a kitchenette. The layout is designed for efficiency: connected kitchen, dining, and living areas that feel distinct rather than compressed.
The payment plan makes the entry even more accessible. 20% deposit — KES 1,240,000 — reserves the unit. The balance spreads across 36 months at 0% interest. The buyer locks in today's price, pays over three years interest-free, and takes delivery of a completed asset in Q3 2028.
The Rooftop: Why This Building's Amenities Drive Revenue
The rooftop is not an amenity floor — it is a destination. A heated infinity pool with built-in sunbeds and Karura Forest views. Dual bars flanking the pool for service while swimming or lounging. An open-air cinema with a full-scale screen set against the night sky. The Terrera — a sculptural lounge with greenery and seating. A corner lounge with sweeping views of the Nairobi skyline. Mini golf. A padel court.
For the Airbnb guest, this rooftop is the reason they book. The guest searching Westlands on Airbnb sees a studio with a rooftop cinema, a heated pool, mini golf, and a bar — and stops scrolling. The rooftop converts browsers into bookings. The bookings convert into the 28% ROI.
The sky garden bar and second pool add a second outdoor social tier. The sky gym and yoga studio overlook the GTC skyline — fitness with a view that justifies the listing premium. The on-site restaurant, café, and mini-mart mean the guest — or the owner — never needs to leave the building for daily essentials.
Westlands: The Address That Airbnb Guests Search First
Westlands is Nairobi's most searched neighbourhood for short-stay accommodation. The dining scene — INTI, Mercado, Sankara, About Thyme, The Alchemist — draws the visitors. The business hubs — GTC, Regus, Ikigai — draw the corporate travellers. The shopping — Sarit Centre, Westgate Mall, Broadwalk Mall — draws the weekend guests. The Nairobi Expressway connectivity draws everyone.
For the long-term tenant, Westlands delivers the CBD-adjacent lifestyle with Aga Khan Hospital, MP Shah, Avenue Hospital, and AAR Healthcare within minutes. Durham International School, Aga Khan Academy, and ISK are in the catchment. Waiyaki Way and Ring Road Parklands provide the arterial connectivity that makes Westlands the centre of Nairobi's daily commute.
For the Airbnb host, Westlands delivers the occupancy rate. The location, the restaurants, the nightlife, and the corporate demand combine to create the 60%+ occupancy that the yield projections are built on. A studio with a rooftop cinema and heated pool, steps from Sarit Centre and the GTC, is not a speculative Airbnb bet — it is a booking engine.
