We stayed at Sarova Game lodge for 2 nights during our honeymoon. The hotel was gorgeous as was our room, very reasonably sized with the river right beyond the patio area at the back. We were very lucky to have elephants come down to the other side of the river to wash which made us have the most amazing close... more

The Sarova Shaba was an amazing place. The rooms were built in treehouse like buildings. We were in room 12a upstairs, it was huge and beautiful. The view of the river was great. We would watch the huge storks and crocodiles on the river banks, while the vervet monkeys played in the trees. The pool area was great and refreshing... more

Came late in the afternoon after a long drive from Nairobi. Too late for an afternoon game drive. But the staff were waiting for us and had ready a very welcomed moist towel and a wonderful late lunch. The logde is situated next to the river Ewaso Ngiro in a wooded environment that gives a welcomed shade. Running water around... more

We can happily give the thumbs up to this absolutely wonderful lodge. It is idyllic and what excellent value for money. It was the perfect start for our 6 day safari with Somak and can happily recommend this oasis. Bugs...what Bugs? What a truly amazing place it is and would most certainly stay there again..just wonderful more

I heard water everywhere by waterfalls, ponds, river and of course the beautifull cooling swimmingpool where you can sunbath perfectly. The rooms were also spacious and luxureous with, for me important, musquito nets and bug reppelent spray. In the evening there where way to... more

Unfortunately, we did not have the great experience at this lodge that others did. It is a beautiful property, but the bugs were horrible. The staff indicated that it was due to the fact that it had rained a couple of days before our arrival. That may be true, but if what we experienced happens every time it rains, then... more

This was one of the best places we stayed on our two and a half week safari. The grounds were beautiful, the rooms were the nicest we had the whole trip (it had fans!), the staff were very friendly, and the food was excellent. I wished we could have stayed longer here. more

we stayed at the Sarova shaba Lodge in Feb 2005. This lodge is a beautiful oasis within shaba Game Reserve. It is reached by a rather rough road (tarmac runs out about 40kms prior to the park entrance)!! The staff at the lodge were exceptionally friendly, nothing was too much trouble, and the food - international style freshly prepared buffet... more
