8/10 Very good

Very friendly and helpful staff. nice big room, hot shower and power for charging and hair drier (that is not available in every lodge...) Good food. One pool to jump around and play. Saw an Elephant at lunch time from the terrace. Good value for the prize.
Verified review

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic Lodge near the river. We had a fantastic experience at the Lodge. The staff is amazing, professional and Kind. The food is delicious. The rooms are big and each one has a bungalow. We met 15 elephants the first morning 3 minutes after driving from the Lodge. There is also many small apes at the Lodge. Samburu has so many different animals, girafes, lions, léopard,.... And Last but not least the price !!! Compared to the other Lodge with insane expensive prices. Thank you again for that amazing experience
