Plan My Safari
Safari lodges with a pool and a view, and beach resorts and retreats for the finish.
Lodges and resorts are the comfortable choice: solid walls, a pool, a bar and a bigger dining room. Safari lodges sit in or beside the parks. Resorts and retreats sit on the coast, ready for the finish.
They are easy, sociable and good for families, first-timers and anyone who likes plenty of facilities and a long cold drink after the drive.
Clear, guest-focused advice for choosing well.

No. You have the same expert guides and the same wildlife. A lodge simply gives you more space and facilities.
Very. Most have pools, family rooms and flexible meals, and many have children's activities.
Kenya's coast is warm all year. The calmest, clearest water is usually October to March. Windy months suit kite surfers.
Yes, and it is our favourite combination. Safari first, then a few days to rest on the sand.
