Excellent Lodge
Incredible safari lodge with a water hole out back to attract animals. Beautiful rooms, a gorgeous restaurant and bar area, top notch service and food, and plenty of history to boot. They even washed my car for me overnight!

Tsavo West slice of heaven
The stay was incredible! As you walk into the reception area you will be shocked by the view. The eating area is an open air area that has the most incredible view and is situated around the watering hole so that you can watch the animals approach as you eat. The service was incredible and the food amazing. The rooms were nice as well. The only issue with the room is that the fan is not above the bed and the nights were HOT. This, sadly is the issue I could find with the place. It was the most amazing place, but I found it hard to sleep while so hot.

Awesome stay! We loved everything - the food, service, rooms, pool. I wished we booked more than one night. It seems pricey, but you get value for your money.

Incredible place!
What an incredible place! The hotel was amazing, the staff superb and the views...wow! We went on some great game drives. I highly recommend the sundowner drive. We had Anthony as our guide, and he was amazing! Food provided was very tasty with lots of options available.
