Nice place, but probably not the best choice for families with younger children, as there is little to do at the lodge besides go on safari (the pool is unheated and small), and "family room" is just a regular sized room with two additional beds thrown in, making it crowded.

This is THE place you need to go on safari. We saw so many animals every day. Our safari guide was Kennedy ( ask for him he was so experienced)and found every animal we wanted to see . Tents were amazing ,staff friendly,good choice of dishes and a children's menu . Take a winter coat it's cold first thing in the morning and when the sun goes down .

Worst place ever. I was injured during the morning game drive due to the guide's negligence, leaving a permanent scar on my face, and the situation was handled very poorly. The manager, Moses, offered no real help and asked me to contact an email address for legal matters. I felt no genuine care about the incident. I didn't receive a proper apology until I insisted on one. Offering credits for the missed days at their camp is insulting and ridiculous! After I was transported to Nairobi for surgery, not a single person from the camp reached out on their own to check on my condition - either during or after the surgery. Their lack of care and accountability is shocking. It has now been four days since the incident, and I am appalled by their dismissive and disrespectful behavior.

Easily one of the best experiences of my life. Location is remote but amazing, staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, the rooms are well equipped and cosy. I’ll definitely come back in the future!

What a wonderful place to be! This camp was a real find! Thanks to our travel advisor who suggested this camp above the many known the area. It's beautifully appointed, green credentials, nestled in to nature on the river, allowing the wildlife to surround you is a stroke of genius! Amazing food, attention to detail as well as knowledgeable game drivers and beautiful settings would be hard to beat however, the staff are what makes this place truly memorable!!! They were some of the most hospitable, lovely, kind people I've ever met and what made our stay truly memorable. Thank you everyone for a wonderful memory.
