For the upmost time we went back to Saltlick Lodge for some relax... The road from Diani Mombasa up to Mwatate is quite good and boring... after it gets bumpy and you have to pay more attention (luckily they are fixing it). We always book in on pair numbers (front room) so we can enjoy the view on the plain... More

After leaving Taita we quickly arrived at this beautiful lodge. We were allocated one of the best rooms facing the water holes with a magnificent view straight overlooking the savana and right on the water hole. We quickly unpacked and I sat on the bed just soaking in the tranquility and watching the animals around the water hole. I was... More

Usually lodges and hotels inside game parks are surrounded by fences to keep the wild life out. Not this lodge though, it's built on high pillars and there's no fences whatsoever. This means you can sit on the terrace drinking cold beer and watch the animals come down to the small water hole beside the hotel. There is also a... More

Finally after two nights in hideous accommodation at Voi and Ngulia , we were upgraded on arrival at the Sarova Lodge to the Salt Lick . This is what I imagined safari lodges would be like , not deeply luxurious , not modern , but with character and thought that has gone into the design. We had lunch at the... More
