A boutique-meets-bush camp in Ol Pejeta Conservancy’s 90,000 acres, with Mount Kenya on the horizon and daytime drives that pivot from big cats to the last two northern white rhinos. By evening, canvas ripples, lanterns glow over the boma, and the plains fall quiet beyond the bar tent. Ten airy, glass-light tents and a two-bedroom Private Villa keep things intimate, with Wi-Fi throughout and attentive, five-star service.

Our Favorite Rooms

For families or two couples, the Private Villa (2 en-suite bedrooms) adds indoor/outdoor lounge & dining, bar, private deck & boma, and a private chef for fully tailored meals.

Dining

Chef-led, plated menus in the dining tent or alfresco. Enjoy bush breakfasts/picnics and boma dinners by lantern. Dietary needs handled with prior notice. Villa stays include a private chef for bespoke meals indoors or under the stars.
