Set in Tsavo West National Park, Kilaguni Serena Safari Lodge features a swimming pool, stunning views of the Chyulu Hills and overlooks its own waterhole visited daily by elephants, buffaloes and a wide variety of game. Mtito Andei Railway Station is 30 km from the property.

Really lovely, peaceful grounds with excellent (but unobtrusive) staff. Our game driver was excellent and the buffet meals were all exceptionally tasty (including the Kenyan coffee on offer…the best we have even at more expensive safari camps/lodges). The watering hole is a highlight and the grounds are beautiful.

With river views, Maneaters is set in Tsavo and has a restaurant, a shared lounge, bar, garden, year-round outdoor pool and terrace. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

We absolutely loved everything about this place. The rooms are huge with a balcony towards Tsavo River. Breakfast and dinner were delicious. For lunch, they made us a lunch package as we were on safari during the day. From our balcony and the common area we saw hippos, elephants, monkeys, buffalos and much more. The pool was great for soaking up some sun. But apart from all of that, the staff was the best. Rosemary, Nicodemus, Augustin and everyone else made our stay so wonderful.

Veggies and fruits are grown at Taita Hills farm abd served to customers fresh and super yummy! The safari trip ( not include to hotel stay) was incredible! We saw tremendous number of animals!

Situated near Tsavo East National Park, Ashnil Aruba Lodge offers free private parking, a bar and an outdoor pool with a sundeck. The lodge overlooks the Aruba dam.

All accommodation at Ashnil Aruba Lodge is African-inspired. Each room includes a seating area, a wardrobe and an en suite bathroom with a bath, a shower and free toiletries.

What can we say to praise Ashnil Aruba sufficiently! From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome, our tent was immaculately clean, cool and comfortable with excellent bathroom and storage, a comfortable bed and a view beyond all expectations. The full board option was far beyond what we had expected for the price, so many delicious options to choose from for each meal. The location and site in the heart of Tsavo East are indescribable, the views are wonderful and the pool is a lovely surprise addition - we even watched elephants, zebra and gazelle while we were in the pool! The staff at the lodge are such a delight, every single member of the team was so kind and friendly as well as being very professional. Their service and dedication really made us feel welcome and well looked after for the whole of our stay. Thank you so much for the perfect safari stay, we loved every minute.

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

    The location was the best part about staying at this lodge. You are at a central location in the national park to go on the various game drive routes. We also had two fans in our room which was a huge help dealing with the high temperatures at this time of the year. The shower in the bathroom was very nice and the beds were comfortable. We were allowed to access the breakfast buffet earlier than the posted hours to accommodate our early departure from the property.

    Excellent location. Lovely staff on the property. I suggest walking safari by the river. Lots of animals to see. Nearby the old station where the lions actually prayed on the people who constructed the bridge. Just a nice place to visit both for a short while or for a longer holiday. Nearby the entrance to Tsavo East and Tsavo West.

    A magical old school safari paradise. Extraordinary level of welcome, dreamy accommodation, delicious food, wonderful staff. Private unique game drives in beautiful old open land cruisers, during which you may not see another vehicle. All just perfect.

    Salt Lick is quite unique in the world of safari game lodges. The location is superb, the design concept is incredible and the abundance of animals something to behold. It does require or deserve investment, but perhaps that would mean that we could not experience this place. Enjoy Salt Lick when you can!!
