PERFECT GETAWAY TO CREATE MEMORIES

Spent a wonderful 3 nights at Sweetwaters. The room was so comfortable. Loved the view from our porch. Recommend getting "tents" 41-53 - larger and more luxurious. The food was very good. The service and staff were excellent. Only complaint is the spa didn't have staff available for massage on two days we had time, but not really a big deal - spent the time watching more animals! Saw elephant, zebra, rhinos, cape buffalo, impala, etc from our porch. Would definitely go back.

We are a family of 6 which includes two senior citizens and two kids under ten. The location of the camp is fabulous. Right opposite a watering hole with just an electric fence separating the resort from the wild. We had a great experience watching so many animals like the rhinos, zebras, water bucks, hyenas and impalas while sitting on the porch outside our tents. The tents are huge and have all the comforts that one would look for. The restaurant serves many cuisines and the food was good. The staff was courteous. Though we stayed at the resort only for a couple of days, we had the experience of a lifetime.

What an amazing place! About 4.5 hours from Nairobi, this camp sits under the gaze of Mt Kenya and from your tent you can watch elephants, rhinos and antelope come to graze and drink from the watering hole
The service from Benson (restaurant) and John (room) was exceptional; the service was highly personalised, on point and unbelievably friendly
The conservancy has a really good variety of game, with Rhino, elephant and lions ever-present. Compared to some of the bigger reserves this is a more “manageable” drive and you can get around it in about 2-3 hours which makes it really accessible for the kids
The tents are very well appointed, all with a good view and feel very spacious and considered. We had 4 kids (8-11) in one with us next door and it worked perfectly with the proximity-it’s a smaller camp so everything is really close and not too far to walk
The food was good, not amazing but I would say perfectly adequate but the service was so excellent that it didn’t matter
The night game drive and the visit to the rhino conservancy was definitely recommended and reasonably priced (thanks to Dennis for the night drive-sooo much fun!)
This was the first stay in the Kenya trip and I thought it was the best for service and vista. Thanks team

A beautiful camp of raised tents and ground level tents. Also newer lodges suitable for families. All fully kitted out with comfy beds, writing table, hostess tray, bathroom with toiletries and a seating area outside to enjoy the watering hole with its many visitors. The main house has the reception, shop, washrooms, bar, restaurant and library area. The whole vibe is that of the 1920s colonial era and boasts magnificent views of the waterhole whilst dining. The food is plentiful and varied with live cooking stations. There is a well stocked bar alongside the dining area, which enjoys a huge fireplace for those cosy evenings on comfy sofas. The camp also offers holistic services situated beside the pool area. It is a lovely place to stay and relax, in fact, one of my favourites. The staff are outstanding in their knowledge and friendliness too. Perk: a hot water bottle nestles within the sheets of your bed upon your return from dinner!

We spent two nights at Serena Sweetwaters in Ol Pejeta reserve. The location near the water hole is fabulous. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Meals were very good.

We stayed in one of the raised rooms on the second row near the watering hole. The room was clean and well-maintained, though this area of the facility is beginning to show its age in spots. I would consider a room in the newer wing of the facility as they appeared to be in slightly better condition. In any event, the accommodation was very nice, clean, and well-maintained.

The highlight of the visit is the game. The watering hole attracts zebra, rhino, and numerous other wildlife. One can spend hours sitting on the benches, watching and photographing the various animals and birds.

Ol Pejeta is fantastic. We went on several game drives around the park and were able to see tons of wildlife up close.

We recommend Serena Sweetwaters for your visit to Ol Pejeta.
