About

Casual game reserve set in Absoeli National Park, featuring a restaurant & an outdoor pool.

Sit by the pool with a cocktail and watch elephants walk past your sun lounger—this is one of only two resorts inside Amboseli reserve. Joseph, the driver-guide, knows the roads require a proper 4x4, and the salad bar is surprisingly excellent.

    This is truly a dream location we left Nairobi and travelled by train to Emali where we were picked up by the wonderful Joseph Our driver and guide for our visit. A wonderful welcome drink at reception at one of only 2 resorts in the reserve. We were shown to our beautiful room looking straight out onto the plains. The rooms are beautifully decorated in fact the entire camp is covered with stunning native artwork. The Maasai warriors protecting the camp and guests from some of the not so shy monkeys were kind warm and happy to share stories of their tribal culture and history. We enjoyed time relaxing by the beautiful pool and could actually see elephant walking by. The Lodge and gardens are serene and beautiful all the staff are very helpful courteous and friendly. Food in the restaurant is varied and excellent. With dishes to suit all tastes. Again helpful friendly chefs are around to tell you about the different food and a station where they cook for you. The game drives were amazing sunset sunrise we saw elephant so many and so close lions and many many more. Stunning views of Kilimangaro in the mornings. On our last evening we enjoyed the fabulous bush barbecue delicious food cooked right there under the stars and finished with beautiful singing and dancing of the Maasai . We collected some lovely souvenirs at the gift shop and had a delicious lunch box organised for our departure. This is a truly magical place for its location surroundings and excellent facilities most of all for the people the make the experience. I would definitely return and recommend staying here.

    We stayed for one night at Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge. The lodge store has a decent collection, and we enjoyed some shopping. The restaurant offered a good variety of meals, and the property is lively with monkeys around, adding a fun wildlife touch. The Wi-Fi is available only in the reception area, and the rooms do not have proper fans. We were initially given three separate beds, and only after our request did they join two beds. The manager mentioned they weren’t informed it was a family booking, only that it was for three pax. The room size felt small for a family with a child and was a bit depressing. Also, there was no phone or walkie-talkie in the room for communication, which would have been useful in case of emergencies. Overall, it’s a pleasant lodge with helpful staff, but families with kids should request room arrangements in advance and note the lack of in-room communication and cooling.

    Beautiful setting in the heart of the Amboseli Park. Good hospitality and clean rooms. The buffet was decent and the salad bar was excellent with a variety of options. The outlook is beautiful as you can sit by the pool, have a cocktail and watch the animals walking past. Definitely worth a visit.

    Beautiful place to be in the stuff arr very friendly. The food was great and also the morning Safari was absolutely an experience. We also enjoyed dinner in the bush with maasai Dancers. Point to note the roads to the hotel requires an off roader.
