Elsa’s Kopje
Hear and smell the sounds of the Kenyan bush all around you
Home » Destinations » Kenya » Meru National Park »
Elsa’s Kopje, as the name implies, is located on a kopje, a small hill with rocky crags and boulders that blends into the scenery. Each of the eight cottages on the hillside has a spectacular view and its own private deck, with the exception of one that has a private sitting room. The open cottages allow you to hear and smell the sounds of the Kenyan bush all around you. The honeymoon suite is a separate three-tiered cottage that sits high on the property and is truly romantic. Elsa’s Private House has two rooms that share a wonderful space and is ideal for families.
Because of the unique location of this lodge, you can enjoy some excellent night drives and explore the wilderness on foot with your own guide to try to see the finer details that the African bush has to offer. Try to spot the’small five’ while you’re out and about (the lion ant, buffalo weaver, elephant shrew, rhino beetle and the leopard tortoise). The swimming pool is ideal for a mid-afternoon dip, and for true relaxation, why not book a massage with the African bush as your backdrop?
