Location
This lodge is nestled along the Lion Hill overlooking the flamingo pink rimmed Lake Nakuru in Central Kenya. The lake takes up about a third of the park size, and it is the lake that has become famously inhabited by huge populations of flamingos. Depending on the season, the lake can be shimmering with thousands, if not millions of bright pink legs.
Layout
Savora Lion Hill Lodge is large for safari standards, hosting 67 luxury chalets across the beautiful grounds. The lodge has its very own spa which is peacefully tucked away near the swimming pool, where guests can enjoy a range of treatments in ultimate relaxation. They have the space and facilities to also host weddings, banquets and conference events.
Rooms
The rooms are split into 64 standard rooms and 3 suites. The rooms are spacious and well appointed, each with ensuites and private patios with panoramic views of the lake. The beds, which can be single, double or triple, are very comfortable and each have a mosquito net provided.
Activities
Game drives from the lodge are done on marked tracks around the lake and all over the national park. Bird watching is also particularly popular, as there are over 400 recorded species of birds to be spotted, including flamingos, a wide range of waders including avocet and pelicans. The lodge also offers excursions to Baboon Cliff (one of the highest points on the hills), across the rift valley and to the rhino sanctuary so there is definitely enough to keep you busy!
