Welcome to Samburu Dik-Dik Lodge, your hidden gem in the wild heart of Kenya! 🌿✨ Tucked away between the iconic Samburu, Buffalo Springs, and Shaba National Reserves, and bordered by the majestic Ewaso Nyiro River, our cozy camp offers the best of both worlds—close to the vibrant Archers Post and main highway, yet worlds away from the hustle and bustle. It’s the perfect spot to kick back and recharge while immersing yourself in the untamed beauty of Northern Kenya’s wildlife and stunning landscapes. Whether you’re flying solo, escaping for a romantic getaway, or adventuring with family and friends, we’ve got the ideal room waiting for you! 🦁🌅
Nestled in a vast open space, surrounded by the river, wildlife reserves, and towering mountains, Samburu Dik-Dik Lodge is your peaceful escape just a stone’s throw away from the lively town of Archers Post. Here, in this semi-arid oasis, you’ll find a unique blend of tranquility and adventure. Blessed by a constant breeze from the river, you can explore the area, spot playful baboons, cheeky monkeys, and even catch a glimpse of an occasional crocodile or wandering elephant. 🐘🌳
The Lodge is a natural haven, where you’ll share the space with dik-diks, hedgehogs, tortoises, geckos, and a symphony of colorful birds. You might even have a surprise visit from vervet monkeys, mongoose, rock hyrax, jackals, and yes—our gentle elephant neighbors who love to stop by. The upper terrace offers panoramic views of the river and the wild beauty of the land, with the stunning Shaba National Reserve as your backdrop. It’s the ideal spot to sip a morning coffee, enjoy an evening cocktail, get lost in a good book, or simply bask in the serenity of the African bush. 🌅🍹
Between your adventures in Kenya’s Northern Frontier—whether it’s rock climbing, trekking Mount Ololokwe, thrilling game drives, visiting conservancies, or getting up close with the elephants at Reteti Elephant Orphanage—take time to cool off with a refreshing dip in the pool, stroll along the riverbanks, or just unwind on the shaded veranda, soaking in the peace after a day of exploration.
With options like the charming Dik-Dik House and the cozy Susuk Self-Catering Cottage, we have the perfect spot for you to kick back, relax, and let the magic of the wild take over. 🌿🏡
Dik-Dik House
Dik-dik House features 3 comfortable guestrooms with large windows, queen-size beds, ceiling fans, free Wi-Fi, wardrobes and private or semi-private spacious bathrooms with hot and cool showers. You have direct access to the shaded veranda where you can relax near the pool, and to the upper terrace for a stunning view of the surroundings.
Complete breakfast, lunch and dinner are also offered on site, to be enjoyed either on site as the sun comes up, or as a take-away to be carried on your morning game drive, cultural visit, or maybe on top of Mount Ololokwe, on your way to Reteti Elephant Orphanage or elsewhere in the Northern Frontier region.
Your stay includes access to the pool, which faces Shaba National Reserve.
