Kifaru House Lewa

PLAN MY TRIP

Kifaru House is an intimate and charming safari lodge ideally situated in the Lewa Conservancy, famous for its successful rhino conversation programs.

Accommodations at the lodge consist of five thatched cottages. Each spacious cottage is furnished with elegant four-poster beds that face generous windows and folding doors that open onto a spectacular view of the verdant plains below. Four of the cottages come with a king bed. For families, one of the cottages includes two bedrooms, one double and two twins, with separate entrances. The en suite bathroom features a flush toilet, double vanity, and a shower. One of the cottages even has a Victorian bath and an outdoor shower.

The camp is based within the 65,000-acre reserve of the Lewa Wilderness Trust, a popular destination for celebrities, royals, conservationists, writers and photographers. The Lewa Conservancy has been the driving force in in Kenya’s strong initiatives to protect and preserve wildlife, particularly, the black and white rhino populations. Lewa Wildlife Conservancy gained worldwide recognition through the National Geographic program “Game Ranger Diaries.” In addition to holding 10% of Kenya’s black rhino population and 15% of its white rhino population, Lewa features the rest of Africa’s “big five” as well as the endangered Grevy’s zebra, cheetah, giraffe, and many smaller species.

Expert guides lead game drives in comfortable open Land Cruisers fitted with camera stands and charging sockets. Due to the Conservancy’s strict limits, guests are ensured an almost private safari experience. For a more detailed look at the flora and fauna, there are guided bush walks. Other activities include horse-riding and camel trekking for a close up view of the plains game on a unique safari as well as bush breakfasts and sundowners. For a more cultural experience, the lodge conducts visits to local Samburu homesteads where guests can buy handicrafts.

The communal area of the lodge houses a large lounge area with plenty of comfortable chairs and sofas to relax in with a drink from the well-stocked bar or peruse a book from the library in the glow of the log fireplace. The dining room extends onto a large furnished terrace. Guests can enjoy an al fresco breakfast while watching the visitors to the waterhole below. The infinity pool looks out across majestic Mount Kenya and includes a shaded lounge area and sunbeds for added relaxation.
