Kenyan Hotels for Tourist

As a holiday destination Kenya is unrivalled. An ancient land born of ice and fire, such are the extremes of the Kenyan climate, which ranges from tropical heat to glacial ice, that it has formed a diversity of habitats found nowhere else on Earth.

A vast mosaic of lion-gold savannah, rolling grasslands, ancient rainforests and volcanic plains, Kenya rises from the idyllic shores of the Indian Ocean to the snow-capped peaks of Mount Kenya which, at 5,199 metres above sea level, is an extinct volcano some three and a half million years old. A natural paradise, Kenya is also a cultural microcosm and the age-old ‘cradle of mankind'. Kenya's people, united under the green, black and red of the national flag, comprise more than 50 ethnic groups and their warmth and hospitality is best expressed in the national motto; ‘Harambee'; meaning ‘let's all pull together'.

Keen fishermen can also rent a deep sea fishing boat from Shimoni, complete with an expert crew, from where you can fish some of the best waters the world has to offer.

For those who wish to explore the coastal inland and see some of the wildlife that the coast provinces have to offer, a day trip to the Shimba Hills and Mwalugangi Elephant Sanctuary is easy to undertake.

Sekenani Camp

Sekenani Camp is situated on the boundary of the Maasai Mara Game Reserve at the very heart of the big game country in southern Kenya. Comprised of fifteen exceptionally well-designed tents, it is the smallest permanent tented camp in the Maasai Mara. It is known for it’s magnificent setting, excellent cuisine and what are probably the most comfortable tents in Africa.

The camp is operated in conjunction with twenty six Maasai families who have a share in the business. It is the logistical center for a community development project developing infrastructure for health-care, veterinary services, education and clean water for people living around the reserve.

Simple elegance is the Sekenani style. The camp is built at the source of the Sekenani River which rises from a rock pool at the east end of the camp and forms the stream which flows in front of each tent. The tents themselves are large and raised off the ground on platforms. Each one is secluded and set into the bush in such a way as to ensure privacy. The en suite bathroom, replete with a full-length bath, make these among the most beautifully appointed tents in Africa.
Picnic breakfasts and lunches are easily arranged. You may wish to have a private sundowner with delicious canapes up on the rocks overlooking the valley or a more formal bush-dinner. Both can be laid on with prior arrangement.
