A sole use property with room for up to fourteen guests, it consists of several elegant, themed cottages surrounded by tropical gardens, streams, and waterholes. Each of the thirteen individually designed suites is so spacious they could easily be called houses and feature quirky and elegant touches such as stained-glass windows of wildlife, hand-crafted furniture in rich woods, masterful paintings, and antique objects d’art that could easily be in a museum. Taking it a step further, the rooms include his and her dressing rooms and bathrooms with rain showers and jacuzzi tubs. Most of the rooms have a living room and private terrace overlooking the water features and wide range of animals coming for a drink. Only the finest linens, towels, bedding, and Hermes bath products are included. Other amenities include Wi-Fi, mini-bars, safes, and hair dryers.

Family-owned for forty years by the Wildenstein family, the property comprises 58,000 acres on the Laikipia Plateau and is named for a native shrub. Not only is it still a working cattle ranch, but for thirty-five years its operated as a private conservation sanctuary. Six percent of the remaining Eastern black rhino live here. The entire ranch is surrounded by an innovative ring fencing system that has sixteen areas that won’t allow the rhino through but will allow other species to migrate freely back and forth. In addition, it is also home to fifteen percent of the Grevy’s zebra plus a significant population of other wildlife including the Big Five and wide range of endangered species.
