About this property

Spacious 5-bedroom safari lodge with lake views and wildlife at your doorstep.

Built in the 1920s, the Sanctuary Farm House is a gorgeous five-bedroom lodge with sweeping views of Lake Naivasha and the private wildlife conservancy at Sanctuary Farm. Designed for families and groups, it combines rustic charm with space to gather. A large kitchen, dining area, and lounge open onto a verandah perfect for sunsets, while wildlife grazes nearby. The property offers comfort and connection to nature in a unique conservancy setting.

We are a family-run conservancy and live on the farm, so one of us will always be around to help out. We share our phone number during check-in, and guests are welcome to call or send a message at any point of their stay with us.

Sanctuary Farm is located on the shores of Lake Naivasha, in the heart of Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. Guests can explore:
🌊 Lake Naivasha — enjoy boat rides, birdwatching, and hippo sightings just minutes away
🦓 Sanctuary Farm Conservancy — zebras, giraffes, antelope, and more roam freely across 450 acres
🍴 Kijiko Restaurant — our on-site farm-to-table dining experience, serving fresh, seasonal meals made from locally sourced ingredients
🛶 Nearby activities — horseback safaris, night game drives, cycling, and more, all available to book at Sanctuary Farm
🌋 Hell’s Gate National Park (5-minute drive) — dramatic cliffs, gorges, hot springs, and cycling among wildlife
🏞️ Crescent Island (5-minute boat ride) — a walking safari where you can stroll alongside giraffes and gazelles
🗻 Mount Longonot (30-minute drive) — hike an extinct volcano with panoramic Rift Valley views

Guests enjoy full access to:
🏠 The entire Mabati House
🦓 The 450-acre private wildlife conservancy (daytime only; no walking at night due to hippos)
🚤 Lake Naivasha’s shoreline, just a 5-minute walk away with boat rides available

5 bedrooms, sleeping 8–10 guests
3 bathrooms
Fully equipped kitchen and dining room with fireplace
Spacious lounge and dining table opening to verandah
Outdoor seating with wildlife and lake views

The easiest way to reach Sanctuary Farm House is by car. Taxis and boda bodas (motorbike taxis) are available locally for shorter trips, but we recommend private transport for comfort and convenience.

As Sanctuary Farm is a private wildlife conservancy, a conservation fee of KES 1,000 per adult and 500 per child (free under 5) is charged upon arrival. This one-time fee supports our conservation efforts.

Please note that this is a family-run farm, not a hotel; we ask you to treat the house and grounds with respect.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and drinks available at on-site restaurant, Kijiko.

Night guard closes the hippo gate at 6:45 pm, so please notify host for late returns.
