What to Expect
Overlooking the Ewaso Nyiro river in the heart of Samburu land, Sasaab is a spectacular lodge which blends wildlife, adventure, relaxation and culture for the ultimate safari experience in northern Kenya. Comprised of eight individual rooms with huge thatched roofs, canvas sides and sensational views across river and beyond, each room is uniquely styled with a private plunge pool and open veranda. Attention to detail is evident throughout, from the personal service and incredible menus through to the elegant interiors styled with a contemporary North African design.
The lodge sits at the heart of a community conservancy rich in Samburu culture and traditions and has been built with wildlife conservation and preservation of the environment foremost in mind. Sasaab’s unique partnership with the local community is mutually beneficial and ensures that surrounding communities benefit directly from every guest. Sasaab offers a range of exciting ways to explore the wildnerness, from invigorating walks to camel rides, quad bikes, fly camping and helicopter experiences.
Highlights
The nine Bedouin boudoirs are crafted from thatch, stone and canvas and spaced along the Ewaso Nyiro River, giving each plenty of privacy and a view as jaw-dropping as the next. Taking centre stage are the Zanzibari four-posters, draped in creamy linens and enshrouded in gauzy mosquito nets whilst skilfully-crafted Moroccan trappings add a sultry air. All are over 100 square metres and bathrooms are just as big and beautiful. For view gazing, there’s a large stone veranda with plunge pool and loungers and inside, a sunken chill-out area.
As the only lodge for miles around, activities at Sasaab are unique and private. Explore the exquisite Samburu Reserve on four wheels, two legs (your own) or four legs on a camel. Visits to the local Samburu community are wonderful and varied; stop off at the market, visit the school, play football with the kids or even have dinner.
