An icon if we ever saw one, a trip to Kenya<\/a> is packed full of memory-making moments, whether you\u2019re seeking out the wildlife of the Masai Mara<\/a>, the beaches of Lamu<\/a> – or the many destinations in between. So, what could possibly make a trip like this even more worthy of your bucket list? How about a selection of top-tier, all-singing all-dancing lodges to stay in? If that sounds like your cup of tea, we\u2019ve rounded up our favourite boutique hotels in Kenya from luxe safari camps to barefoot beach villas. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Angama Mara Camp, Masai Mara<\/p><\/div>\n

Angama Mara Camp<\/h2>\n

This chic hillside camp is the last word in safari luxury. Designed and built by some of the best in the business, it\u2019s architecturally stunning; but it may just be the endless, sweeping views that make you really fall in love with Angama Mara<\/a>. In fact, this is the exact setting where the safari epic, Out of Africa, was filmed and you can even enjoy a champagne picnic in the very same spot as Meryl Streep and Robert Redford. When you\u2019re not reliving movie moments, Angama Mara manages to merge classic safari charm with well-placed luxury touches, and you can be sure those vistas are visible from every corner. The precipitous infinity pool is a firm favourite! After a day of safari-ing the Angama way, the sunken fire pit is the best place to be \u2013 a chilled G&T in hand \u2013 as the sun slowly disappears from the savannah.<\/p>\n

Ol Donyo Lodge, Amboseli & Chyulu Hills<\/p><\/div>\n

Ol Donyo Lodge<\/h2>\n

As Hemingway once said, \u201cI never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke up that I was not happy\u201d \u2013 and Chyulu Hills<\/a> was a place he returned to again and again. Sitting beneath the formidable Mount Kenya<\/a>, Ol Donyo<\/a> offers everything you could ask for in a safari retreat with voluminous, four-poster beds, a library packed with wildlife reads, and an infinity pool where you can spend many hours, gazing over the plains below. And that\u2019s before we\u2019ve mentioned the startling array of wildlife (see it all up-close from the lodge\u2019s open-air hide), the epic horseback safaris, and home-cooked dinners in the middle of the bush. If you long to be even closer to the wilderness, book into the spectacular star bed and spend a night beneath the great African sky.<\/p>\n

Lengishu, Laikipia<\/p><\/div>\n

Lengishu<\/h2>\n

Perfectly located in a conservancy in the foothills of Mount Kenya<\/a>, this private home promises everything you could possibly want from a Kenya<\/a> safari – and then some. A dedicated team of chefs, housekeepers and a private guide see to every detail and having the place all to yourselves means that each day takes shape according to you alone. Constructed from earth, stone and thatch, the cottages feel as if they have risen from the ground itself – and then furnished by someone with a keen eye for style! With locally-sewn fabrics, huge soaking tubs and roaring fires to warm chilly nights, Lengishu<\/a> is the home away from home you\u2019ve been dreaming of.<\/p>\n

Betty\u2019s Suite, Lamu<\/p><\/div>\n

Betty’s Suite<\/h2>\n

A gathering of islands off the northern coast of Kenya<\/a>, Lamu<\/a> is a time capsule of traditional Swahili life and a heady mix of history, culture and picture-perfect beaches. One of our favourite hideaways, tucked just up from the harbour in Shela on Lamus Island itself, is Betty\u2019s Suite<\/a>. The perfect boutique retreat for two, you\u2019ll linger over views of the sweeping beach (the sunrises are utterly sublime), and there\u2019s plenty to help you achieve peak R&R including a sunken bath for long lazy soaks, an infinity pool overlooking the ocean, and a gorgeous shaded terrace for whiling away the days with a good book. In between, the private chef is always on hand to whip up the catch-of-the-day, and there\u2019s a small team to ensure your every need is met. Wishing you were there?<\/p>\n

Sasaab, Samburu<\/p><\/div>\n

Sasaab<\/h2>\n

The sole camp for miles and miles, Sasaab<\/a> is as intimate and exclusive as they come. With its Moroccan flair, it wins big in the style stakes too: think cool, white facades, sunken lounges draped in colourful textiles, giant, open-air bedrooms, and private plunge pools\u2026 The views of the rugged Samburu<\/a> terrain are astonishing, especially from the top of \u2018sundowner rock\u2019, and you\u2019ll also have the chance to explore the landscape both on foot and on camel-back safaris. With strong ties to the local Samburu community and an unparalleled knowledge of the region, the guides provide a wealth of understanding and love for this area. And then you\u2019ll return to camp, ready for a spot of pampering at the Hamman-esque spa.<\/p>\n

Msambweni Beach House, Msambweni<\/p><\/div>\n

Msambweni Beach House<\/h2>\n

Having managed to stay mostly off the tourist radar (and made all the better for it), coastal Mswambweni<\/a> is a dream of gently lapping turquoise water and untouched shoreline. There are just a handful of chic eco-hideaways to choose from here, and our vote always goes to Msambweni Beach House<\/a>. It\u2019s near impossible not to feel relaxed from the moment you arrive, especially if you\u2019re staying in one of the luxury villas, which enjoy a delightful Swahili style and their own infinity pool. When you\u2019re not lazing in the sunshine with something ice-cool in hand, there\u2019s snorkelling, kitesurfing and fishing expeditions on offer, all rounded off with a private seaside dinner beneath the stars.<\/p>\n

Elsa’s Kopje Lodge, Meru<\/p><\/div>\n

Elsa’s Kopje Lodge<\/h2>\n

Despite being one of the most diverse and incredible parks in East Africa, Meru<\/a> remains an off-the-beaten-track destination with a serious story to tell. And is there anywhere more befitting to stay than Elsa\u2019s Kopje Lodge<\/a>, named after Joy and George Adamson\u2019s famous lion? Brimming with African romance, you\u2019ll find four-poster beds and sunken baths with serious views. A good soak is just the ticket after an epic game drive or bush walk, where all manner of wildlife can be spotted including lesser-known creatures like reticulated giraffe and Grevy\u2019s zebra. Add it all up and you have one of the finest lodges in Africa.<\/p>\n

Loldia House, Lake Naivasha<\/p><\/div>\n

Loldia House<\/h2>\n

Set on the western shores of Lake Naivasha<\/a>, Loldia House<\/a> is the personification of charm. Surrounded by perfectly manicured gardens, its near-100 year history shines through whether you\u2019re curled up in front of the roaring fire with a slice of homemade cake, or sipping from crystal glassware at dinner. The interiors are beautifully done with animal-print textiles and plenty of soft, inviting hues. From boat rides and fishing on the lake to daily game drives on the ranch and to Hells Gate and Crater Lake National Parks and riding amongst hordes of antelope by horseback, the possibilities for adventure are endless.<\/p>\n

Giraffe Manor<\/h2>\n

If there\u2019s one place on this list you\u2019ve likely already heard whisperings (or shouts) about, it\u2019s Giraffe Manor<\/a>. This Nairobi<\/a> bolthole has shot to fame in the past few years and is now at the very top of many a bucket list, and with good reason! The 1930s Manor House is magnificent and inside, the claw-footed bathtubs and elegant, wood-panelled dining room only add to the sophisticated ambiance. But it\u2019s the beloved giraffes that wander freely around the gardens that are guaranteed to make your stay one you\u2019ll never forget. Expect curious heads popping through the windows to join you for breakfast or afternoon tea, or head outside and feed the endangered giraffe with their own special pellets. There\u2019s absolutely nothing else like it.<\/p>\n

Alfajiri Cliff Villa, Diani<\/p><\/div>\n

Alfajiri Cliff Villa<\/h2>\n

Just south of Momabasa<\/a>, Diani<\/a> is the perfect, palm-lined, white-sand end to a safari. Hidden away from the beachside hustle and bustle, you\u2019ll find the exquisite Alfajiri Cliff Villa<\/a>. This exclusive-use house takes beach chic to a new level with pops of lapis lazuli, unexpectedly elegant features and ornate wooden furnishings. Its wide verandas invite you to put your feet up and stay a while, and the turquoise pool makes the most of those clifftop views. You\u2019re only a short stroll away from the private beach below, but if you seek to go further afield, your private driver will be ready and waiting.<\/p>\n
