Lewa Wilderness
Lewa Wilderness
Lewa Wilderness is a boutique escape to one of Kenya’s best-loved environmental conservation regions and wildlife conservancies, offering an intimate stay comprising breathtaking views and a truly homely ambiance and warm welcome.
The nine rooms scatter the Lewa Wilderness terrain, all set among lush lawns. The tall thatch roof of the main lodge peaks out among a bushy landscape, the tall trees providing a private space for guests to unwind. There is an indoor sitting area and an outdoor verandah with comfortable sofas, and a neat bar tucked in the corner, ready to serve guests their beverage of choice.
The open-air dining deck offers an incredible view and invites guests to dine on delectable cuisine created by talented chefs. Guests can choose to dine here, around the pool deck, or out in the bush for a unique dining experience.
Guests can enjoy a gentle workout in the ‘bush gym’, equipped with yoga mats and an unrivaled view. The swimming pool is refreshing and the perfect way to cool down after a game of tennis on the lodge’s sand tennis court.
For something unique, guests can enjoy a ‘fly-camping’ experience during their stay. This additional-cost outing will allow guests to step away for a night and sleep in a comfortable and spacious mobile tent, out in the wilderness. Truly amazing!
