Loisaba Lodge

Loisaba Lodge is situated in the heart of the private Loisaba game ranch, which spans the border of Laikipia and Kenya’s rugged northern frontier district. This is a working ranch but the farm management along with the local Laikiiak Masai and Samburu communities work together to preserve the environment and wildlife that abounds here.

Loisaba Lodge itself has a stunning position, perched on the edge of an escarpment looking out towards Mount Kenya and overlooking a waterhole and the scrub plains below. It’s sensitively constructed from stone, local timber and thatch and has an intimate dining area, stylish and comfortable sitting room with an open fire, as well as an outside decking area that offers spectacular views and overlooks the water hole a few hundred feet below, a constant draw for the wildlife in the area.

There are seven cottage style-rooms to accommodate guests. Each one has large French windows that open onto a private deck area and day-bed looking out over the escarpment. Each room has an ensuite bathroom with hot water shower and flushing loos. All the furniture in the lodge is handmade at Loisaba and has a rustic ranch feel.

Loisaba Lodge has a swimming pool, tennis court, bocce court and croquet lawn. The spa offers massage and beauty treatment and a romantic open-air bubble bath, all with a tranquil view of the unspoilt Karissia Hills.

Activities: day and night game drives, bush breakfasts, sundowners, helicopter safaris, balloon safaris, horse riding, guided walking safaris, camel trekking, mountain biking, river rafting (seasonal), visits to local tribal ‘enk’angs’ (villages), fishing, bird watching, tennis, swimming, bocce ball, croquet and health spa treatments (extra cost).
