Lewa Wilderness
Family run and cared for.

Lewa Wilderness, a beautiful retreat surrounded by trees and located within the 62,000 acre Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, has only eight individually decorated cottages with private sitting areas and verandas overlooking the vast landscape. The fire places in each room add to the homey feel of the place, and for those who prefer to be outside rather than inside, the tennis court and swimming pool are excellent ways to burn off some energy.
The reserve is home to some amazing wildlife and aids in the conservation of black rhinos, which visit the region in greater numbers than anywhere else in East Africa. Lion, leopard, and elephant can frequently be seen drinking from the small wooded valley river that flows past the lodge all year and provides an excellent source of prime game viewing.
If you’re feeling more daring than most, ‘Walking Wild’ is an activity that allows you to explore the wild and remote Lewa Wildlife Conservancy under the supervision of a team of expert guides. You embark on a genuine mobile safari led by camels, and each tent has its own private toilet and shower ‘room,’ adding a ‘glamping’ element to this remarkably wild experience. Three to five night options are available.
