The stay

Settle into Lake Elmenteita Serena Camp

Just two hours from Nairobi, Lake Elmenteita Serena Camp is a boutique tented sanctuary nestled in the heart of the Soysambu Conservancy near Nakuru. Framed by golden-barked acacia trees and ancient volcanic hills, the camp offers a front-row seat to nature's drama, from flamingo-lined shores to more than 15,000 wild animals roaming the landscape. With 24 beautifully appointed tents and one Flamingo Suite, and more than 450 bird species recorded in the conservancy, the camp is a dream setting for nature lovers and birding enthusiasts. Each tent sits along the lake's edge with classic safari charm, modern comfort, deluxe linens, complimentary Wi-Fi and uninterrupted views of the shoreline, while the Flamingo Suite adds a separate bedroom, a lounge with television and a Jacuzzi overlooking the lake. Guests can enjoy immersive experiences including game drives, guided birdwatching, nature walks, horse riding, archery, lakeside breakfasts, cliff sundowners and tranquil poolside lounging, then dine in the elegant camp restaurant or under the stars with a bespoke bush dinner. Lake Elmenteita is recognised as a Ramsar wetland of global importance and part of the Kenya Lake System UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the camp is designed for romantic escapes, intimate honeymoons and unforgettable group celebrations.
