Sarova Shaba Game Lodge

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.

Sincere thanks to Chef Robert and Chef Farida for their exceptional food service during our stay around May 20-23, 2025 at Sarova Shaba Game Lodge. Every meal was a delightful experience—beautifully prepared, flavorful, and consistently served with genuine warmth and care. Their attention to detail and hospitality made dining a true pleasure throughout our stay. Best, Christine

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!

The experience was wonderful, my family really enjoyed the food. Mostly the out pool dinner experience was fantastic. we in particular loved chief Robert's personalized service. This is a place i will surely take my family again. The long drive is surely something you want to experience with your family.
