Discover Campi Ya Kanzi

Campi ya Kanzi is an award-wining boutique eco-lodge in the Chyulu Hills of southern Kenya, bordering Tsavo West National Park, Chyulu National Park and Amboseli National Park. Translated as 'Camp of the Hidden Treasure' it has a stunning backdrop of Mount Kilimanjaro and Ernest Hemingway's 'Green Hills of Africa', perfect for an inspiring and authentic safari experience.

As a guest of Campi ya Kanzi you will not only enjoy a unique and pristine wilderness and amazing wildlife, but you'll actively protect them and help the Maasai community with whom the camp is in partnership.

There are 6 luxury tented cottages and 2 luxury tented suites, all raised up on wooden platforms with thatched roofs, keeping in line with the eco-feel of the lodge. All rooms have a private veranda and sitting area. There is also an exclusive villa called Kanzi House to larger groups and families who would like to stay under one roof and dine privately. The main part of the camp is Tembo House which has a veranda overlooking the Tsavo Hills and Mount Kilimanjaro. With an open-plan dining/living room constructed from local materials, it's the perfect place to relax in the evening and enjoy freshly prepared Italian or local cuisine. During the day you can enjoy a view of the vast wildlife that visits the camp's watering hole.
