Suyian Conservancy, a hidden gem in northern Kenya's Laikipia region, is home to over 100 mammal species, including both endangered and non-endangered wildlife. The conservancy's diverse landscapes—ranging from grasslands and savannas to rocky outcrops, dense Vechellia woodlands, and over 10 miles of river frontage—provide breathtaking wilderness views and intimate wildlife encounters. At its heart lies Suyian Lodge, the sole accommodation on the conservancy, named after the African wild dog in the local Maa language.
Perched along the escarpment, these luxurious havens boast spacious bedrooms, en-suite bathrooms, and separate lounge areas, all offering panoramic vistas. Step onto your al fresco deck to find a private rim-flow plunge pool, sunken daybed, and outdoor shower—a harmonious blend of opulence and safari adventure. Delicate cultural influences from the local semi-nomadic Samburu tribe are seamlessly integrated into the refined yet understated luxury of the lodge. The design features muted tones that honor the region's revered wildlife, including the rare African wild dog and the elusive black (melanistic) leopard.
Dining is an experience in itself, with meals showcasing the best of Laikipia’s homegrown produce. Enjoy casual meals at the chef’s table, indulge in private dining under the stars, or savor an experiential outdoor meal by the central fire pit. The vibrant Samburu Bar, with its indoor and outdoor seating, is the perfect spot to enjoy signature cocktails and lively conversations with fellow guests.
