Samburu Sopa Lodge

Located inside the Samburu National Reserve in Northern Kenya, Samburu Sopa lodge is built atop the high ground, allowing panoramic views of Samburu’s vast shrub land and the hills beyond.
The lodge is built to reflect the local communities’ architectural heritage, whose sons and daughters make up most of the workforce at the lodge.   Fifteen cottages, each with two bedrooms, are built in an arch formation on either side of the public areas to surround the waterhole but leaving a wide gap to allow the animals free movement to the water.
