Very quiet but fenced so if you don't book a safari, you get bored. In addition, you have to pay exorbitant taxes to access the park, so the hotel!

This camp was beautiful! All around in the Shaba Park it is very dry but in the camp there is water running all around from the natural springs into the river. It is very green and beautiful, lots of water dragons, lizards, fish, birds, butterflies, small monkeys etc. The room we stayed in was just a standard room and it was very nice! Has a safe, bathroom, mosquito nets, bottled water each day etc. There is a pool that it heated and is very nice, they have equipment (you need to ask for) to play games in the pool. The dinning room is upstairs, where you have a great view. All meals are buffet and all the food was absolutely delicious. I have a dairy intolerance and Chef Stephen was there for every meal to show me what I could and couldn't have (there was lots I could so lots of options) he even made special soups and desserts for me. Everyone at the camp, especially all of the restaurant staff (Chef Stephen, Kevin & Moses). All long the camp you can look down onto the Ewaso Ng'iro River where you can see Crocodiles and bird life.

We had a wonderful two nights at the Sarova Shaba Game Lodge. The wildlife around the lodge was amazing and everyone who worked there was extremely friendly and accommodating. My husband loves birds and loved walking the property birdwatching. One of the restaurant employees, Kevin, noticed this and invited him out one afternoon for a birdwatching walk during his break. Kevin went above and beyond and it was the highlight of our stay there. The fish foot therapy was something fun to try and the location is a short drive from the parks to see the best wildlife. Would highly recommend a stay here to others - we would definitely go back if we have the opportunity.

Amazing experience, we loved it and we can’t wait to come back. The peaceful, the environment, the atmosphere, the staff, the river with crocodiles and the garden with baboons and monitor lizards are unbelievable. The food is excellent and the restaurant marvelously located.

My husband, daughter, brother and sister in law spent four glorious days at sarova shaba. We enjoyed the hotel ambience. It was very peaceful and respectful of nature. The adjoining rooms we had were great. We really appreciated the turn down service every night. The staff were all the courteous and friendly. The spa was amazing. My husband had a deep tissue massage and my sister in law, daughter and I had pedicures. We also all enjoyed fish therapy. A guide was kind enough to join us on a safari to help us find the animals.HOWEVER...the highlight of our trip was the food. Chef Robert did an amazing job with the menu we were not disappointed meal after meal. We especially enjoyed the boiled goat which we had our first night. Chef Robert came out to the dinning area and mingled with guests. He was instrumental in helping us celebrate our daughters 5th birthday. We will definitely be back to Shaba! Also want ensure I mention Chef Edwin who was in charge of breakfast and that didnt disappoint either!

Beautiful grounds; definitely lodgy. Loved the water flowing all throughout, and down to the river - seemingly one connected body. It was a peaceful setting, and very cool to see crocs and other wildlife on the river that ran in front of the lodges (with an electric fence separating us, of course). Seeing the mischevious vervets and baboons running around the property was also fun. The food was plentiful, with selections to fit pretty much every palate, and the service was wonderful. The rooms were OK - bedroom area was nice enough but the bathrooms were basic...however they served the purpose. I wasn't a fan of not having any type of curtain or shade covering the bathroom window (frosted glass only), or especially of having a frosted glass pane next to the front door...that made me feel kind of vulnerable since anyone could look in and see "enough" if they wanted to.

We had a lovely outdoor breakfast on the lawn beside the fast-flowing Ewaso Nyiro River and with the Shaba Game Park across the river. The monkeys were there for breakfast too. It was a live cooking by Chef Edwin and the crew, including Moses, Paul, John, Hassan. They ensured we enjoyed our special breakfast, and the monkeys stayed in the tree. Thanks to all the dining staff who organized this special event for us. The lodge is in a green oasis with beautiful high ceilings open-air restaurant /bar area. The setting is relaxing, and the delightful swimming pool makes it even more so. Thanks to the pool staff James” Mr. Safari Water” The quality and variety of the food is terrific. They call it the “Shaba cuisine “The Manager has a very nice designer shirt which he refused to part with.
