Sasaab is super stylish little lodge on community land outside of Samburu Reserve. This allows for some nice privacy and interaction with the local community. The rooms have great views and nice plunge pools which are needed in the hot weather. The management team here extremely welcoming and ensures guests have a enjoyable stay.

Sasaab is a sensational and stylish lodge set in a wild landscape, amongst the culturally proud and fascinating Samburu tribe. It offers an experience of rare and endangered wildlife enhanced by scenic views of the Ewaso Nyiro river- Kenya’s third largest water course. Set on half a mile of hillside, the lodge provides privacy and harmony with the environment and a taste of true African safari. Sasaab is situated in the Northern Frontier District of Kenya. The conservancy was established in 2004 and borders the Samburu National Reserve.
The nine distinctive rooms have Egyptian cotton sheets on four poster beds with large, spacious bathrooms. Each room is over one hundred square meters in size and extends out to the veranda and private plunge pool with views overlooking the river and wildlife below.
The Samburu are a proud tribe of cattle owning pastoralists, a section of the Maa-speaking people who rely on their cattle, sheep, camels and goats for their livelihoods. They have striven to preserve much of their culture and are very proud to show their way of life to visitors, making a visit to this area an exceptional cultural experience.
