Chui Lodge

Lake Naivasha, Kenya

Exquisitely positioned on the banks of Lake Naivasha, Chui Lodge offers a serene getaway from the world. The animals of Oserian Wildlife Sanctuary roam freely through the grounds and there’s a permanent sense of exclusivity. Between Nairobi and Nakuru, this lodge providing a very relaxing immersion in nature, one that neatly complements Kenya’s more famous destinations.

The accommodation is sublime and each of the cottages is built elegantly using natural materials. Tree trunks curl into the roof and it’s all laid out to maximise the bounty of the Great Rift Valley. Buffalo, Aardvark and Honey Badgers are amongst our favourites here.

All stays include day and night-time game drives in the private wildlife sanctuary with the lodges guides. We think this is one of the most tranquil ways to discover Kenya’s wildlife; giraffe, oryx, gazelle, impala, and then the astonishing sight of a white rhino. Hippos fill the lake and you’ll see far more than you could possibly count; it’s great watching them from the lodge’s swimming pool.

That being said, Chui Lodge isn’t a typical safari destination. It’s more focused on providing a place to unwind amidst luxury. You’ll love the opulence of the accommodation and the privacy that’s afforded by the lodge and the surrounding conservancy. We think it’s ideal for a one or two-night interlude during a longer safari holiday.
