Located in northern Kenya’s Laikipia Highlands, Sirikoi is a leading representative of a small group of pioneering eco-lodges. Situated on working ranches, these lodges have managed to combine the needs of the environment, the animals and local communities to recreate rich and diverse habitats.

Overview

Owner-run, Sirikoi is built from canvas, stone, wood and thatch, and overlooks a well-frequented waterhole. The tented camp consists of four en-suite rooms with a private deck, and are located near the dining lodge, pool, the property’s two-bedroom house and cottage. The shared area is upcountry in style, and the mixed European and African influences work well.

Food & service

With much of the produce locally sourced – Sirikoi’s organic vegetable garden, Lewa Conservancy beef etc. – the food is excellent, as is the service.

Rooms

The rooms of Sirikoi are huge. Either doubles or twins, each possesses an open fire, a separate bathroom, a seating/changing area and a raised veranda. With a style that favours freshly cut flowers, locally made furniture, colourful throws and sketches or paintings by local artists, the rooms give off a sense of ease, and add to the home-away-from-home feel of the property. Sirikoi House is situated a little further away, nearer the wetlands, and has possibly the best view of foraging game. Wi-Fi is available in the communal areas.

Activities

The wildlife viewing is done on Lewa Conservancy, either on foot, with an armed guide, on horseback, or in the well-maintained open Landrovers. There is a 20 ft hide by the swamp for more sedentary wildlife viewing. Other activities include fly camping, lion tracking, fishing, helicopter trips, homestead visits, horse riding, camel treks and a biplane flight.
