Superior Homes Kenya PLC is a real estate developer who takes pride in being the pioneer of the open-plan gated community concept in East Africa, which is now recognized as the future for sustainable living in East Africa. Developments under the Superior Homes brand include Greenpark Estate in Athi River, Pazuri at Vipingo and Lake Elementaita Mountain Lodge.

Superior Homes owns several houses situated at Greenpark and at the Pazuri Vipingo Estate. The houses are fully furnished to a high standard, and the gardens are well-maintained. It has been decided to rent out the houses or the rooms in the houses on a short-stay basis, and we are seeking to identify the services of a suitably qualified individual or company to market, sell, collect cash, and manage the houses.

 In addition to the company-owned houses, there will be other houses in the ‘pool’ that will be rented out for short stays on a revenue share basis. Clients will mostly be sourced via digital media advertising, referrals, and word of mouth. The Staycation Supervisor (SS) will be responsible for houses at Greenpark and Pazuri.

All routes to market will be utilised, including digital media such as Airbnb, booking.com, Expedia, and others, and direct door-to-door selling to businesses in the vicinity of Athiriver, Lukenya, Mombasa, and North Coast.
