Samburu Sopa Lodge

SAMBURU

Overview

Samburu Sopa Lodge is built to reflect the heritage of the local Samburu people. Cottages made of thatch and stone are arranged either side of the main lodge, set high on raised ground with panoramic views over the reserve to the distant Samburu Hills.

Rooms

The lodge has 60 guest rooms, in a series of double-storey cottages that accommodate two guest rooms each. All rooms are en-suite, and are simply furnished, with an open-air veranda which overlooks the waterhole for the chance to spot the wildlife as it comes to drink.

Facilities

There is a pool and sunbathing area, with an adjoining children’s pool and a sunken bar – perfect for cooling off in the heat. The lodge has a restaurant offering a choice of fresh cuisine, and a lounge bar, with views over both the waterhole and the panoramic landscapes beyond. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available in the lodge’s public areas.

"A fabulous family holiday!!! We really felt we were in the middle of the Great Migration, right on the Wildebeest trail. It was extraordinary just to see the numbers of them. The balloon ride was stunning. Our Internal flight back was delayed a bit due to thousands of Wildebeest and Zebra crossing the runway for at least half an hour. We couldn’t have wished for a better send off!!"

" We had a fantastic time and were incredibly happy with our Kenyan safari and beach stay. It was extremely well planned and well worth the money. Thank you so much for all your help. 😊"

"The Sheldrick Orphanage was a great way to spend time in Nairobi - it was lovely to see the young elephants. We obviously adopted one! The tents and food on safari were great! Lots of space and all the amenities we needed. The food throughout was excellent, there were lots of Vegetarian and Vegan options. The whole trip was amazing and we've certainly got some wonderful memories and millions of photos! Everyone we met was so lovely and nothing was too much trouble. "

"We were staggered by the professionalism throughout, the care & attention to ensure that we made the best use of our time was heart warming. We did a sundowner helicopter flight resulting in a G+T on a small ridge at 6500 feet watching the sunset… The food at both camps was good enough to serve in any high end restaurant around the world. A Birthday cake arrived on our last night, carried in by all the Masai staff, some dressed in their robes & singing. The trip was a huge success on so many levels. We wouldn’t have changed a thing. Thank you for all the fantastic organising. "
