Sentrim Amboseli Lodge, part of Kenya’s esteemed Sentrim Hotels and Lodges group, has been crafting memorable safari experiences for over two decades. Nestled in one of the world’s most iconic locations, this lodge offers guests an unparalleled opportunity to engage with nature while indulging in luxury.

The lodge’s design embraces the wilderness, providing a sense of being part of the landscape rather than just visiting it. With 60 modern tents, Sentrim Amboseli combines the adventure of camping with the comforts of a luxury hotel. Each tent is a sanctuary of comfort, boasting soft beds, en-suite bathrooms with steaming hot showers, and all the amenities one would expect from a high-end accommodation. The tents are thoughtfully equipped with coffee and tea making facilities, fridges, fans, hair dryers, and electronic safes, ensuring your stay is as comfortable as it is adventurous.

What sets Sentrim Amboseli apart is its commitment to providing guests with not just a place to stay but an experience to remember. From the culinary delights prepared by talented chefs using produce from the lodge’s own organic gardens to the cultural immersion of Maasai traditions, every aspect of your stay is curated to leave you with indelible memories.

Location:

Sentrim Amboseli Lodge is strategically placed right next to Kimana Gate, offering immediate access to the 390 square kilometers of the Amboseli National Park, famous for its large elephant herds and the iconic backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro. The park is accessible via two main routes from Nairobi: one through Namanga on the Nairobi-Arusha road (240 km) via Meshanani gate, or through Emali on the Nairobi-Mombasa road (228 km). For those coming from Mombasa, the route is through Tsavo West.

By road, it’s a scenic 4-hour journey from Nairobi, or you can opt for a quicker flight, landing at the nearby Amboseli Airport, just 2.5 miles from the lodge. This location not only offers convenience but also the thrill of being close to where wildlife roams freely, enhancing your safari experience.
