Loisaba Camp

Location

Loisaba bestrides the border of Laikipia and Kenya’s rugged Northern Frontier District.

Accommodation and facilities

Set on the escarpment with panoramic views, the main lodge has 7 rooms – 4 doubles and 3 twins, all with ensuite bathrooms.

The celebrated Star Beds – Kiboko and Kioja – each comprising 2 double star bed sleeping platforms and one large family platform which all have en-suite bathroom facilities and showers. Each Star Bed is designed on a raised, handcrafted, wooden platform that is partially covered with a thatched roof. Homemade ‘Mukokoteni’ beds can either be wheeled onto the open deck for a night under the stars, or left under the shelter of the roof.

A separate truly exclusive, self-contained, serviced, private cottage is also available. Loisaba Cottage has three double en-suite bedrooms, one double/twin bedroom with access to a large bathroom via an external staircase, a private swimming pool set in beautifully landscaped gardens and its own game drive vehicle.

Loisaba House is a truly exclusive, self-contained private house with cliff-top infinity pool, built on the edge of the escarpment entirely from local stone and thatch. The location and architecture of the house are breathtaking, as are the furnishings, most of which have been designed and made at Loisaba. The house has two double bedrooms and offers guests private and exclusive accommodation, with their own staff, vehicle and guide.

Activities and game viewing

Loisaba is made for adventure: guests enjoy complete freedom to choose how they spend their time … the only barrier is your own imagination. Trek through the bush with camels, mountain bike down the escarpment, raft the Ewaso Nyiro, horseback ride or drive through the wild canyons of the two great rivers that span this vast area. The ranch also owns a micro-light and aeroplane so there are no limits to what you choose to do: heli-camp, then surf the remote sand dunes of the Northern Frontier District, rock-climb the soaring pinnacles thrusting up from the valley floor or just play a little tennis and lie by the pool.

A place of deep serenity, Loisaba attracts big game just as it attracts guests: both know they will be safe and well looked after, free to roam unconfined and undisturbed.

The Star Beds – four-poster beds on raised platforms provide blissful sleep under the vast African sky with only the stars and sky for a ceiling.
Even the spa – where pampering is unrivalled – is sensitively constructed and set apart from the other buildings, so that the eternal drama of the bush unfolds before your eyes.
