Nestled in the heart of Kenya’s Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, bordering the expansive Tsavo West National Park, Salt Lick Safari Lodge offers a truly luxurious and unforgettable safari experience.
As a long-standing flagship lodge in Kenya, Salt Lick Safari Lodge offers unparalleled wildlife viewing from its unique design. Charming stilted rooms provide panoramic views of the waterhole and the vast Tsavo plains, where diverse animals and birds gather. For incredibly close encounters, an underground tunnel and bunker with ground-level windows offer safe, intimate access to the waterhole, especially rewarding in the dry season. The lodge further enhances the safari with private sundowners and bush meals at scenic outdoor locations, offering magnificent vistas of the Taita Hills, the expansive plains, and often Mount Kilimanjaro on clear days.
Committed to sustainable tourism, Salt Lick Safari Lodge operates on solar power and utilises water from a natural spring, significantly minimising its environmental footprint. The culinary experience is equally impressive, with delicious meals featuring fresh fruits and vegetables grown on site. This unique destination promises an unparalleled blend of incredible wildlife encounters and breathtaking natural beauty.
ACCOMMODATION
Each of Salt Lick Safari Lodge’s spacious rooms is a private haven, thoughtfully designed to bring the wilderness to you. Wake up to breathtaking views of the abundant wildlife from the comfort of your own space. Inside, you’ll find an en-suite bathroom with a rain shower and subtle touches of romance, from the soft, fine linen on the generous beds to the plush, white towels. For your comfort, all bedrooms have mosquito netting and a fan.
Salt Lick Safari Lodge lies in the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, which borders Tsavo West National Park in southern Kenya. The drive takes around six hours from Nairobi or three hours from Mombasa. Alternatively, take the Madaraka Express train to Voi, followed by a 45-minute road transfer. The sanctuary’s airstrip, 8km from the lodge, is served by scheduled flights and private charters. Acacia-dotted plains stretch out below the Taita Hills, with Mount Kilimanjaro visible on clear days.
