Very quiet but fenced so if you don't book a safari, you get bored. In addition, you have to pay exorbitant taxes to access the park, so the hotel!

Beautiful grounds; definitely lodgy. Loved the water flowing all throughout, and down to the river - seemingly one connected body. It was a peaceful setting, and very cool to see crocs and other wildlife on the river that ran in front of the lodges (with an electric fence separating us, of course). Seeing the mischevious vervets and baboons running around the property was also fun. The food was plentiful, with selections to fit pretty much every palate, and the service was wonderful. The rooms were OK - bedroom area was nice enough but the bathrooms were basic...however they served the purpose. I wasn't a fan of not having any type of curtain or shade covering the bathroom window (frosted glass only), or especially of having a frosted glass pane next to the front door...that made me feel kind of vulnerable since anyone could look in and see "enough" if they wanted to.

Sarova Shaba experience was great. The food, Boma dinner, the game drive, the rooms and the entire compound is just out of this world. Service by Chef Edwin, Chef Robert, Chef Jane, Chef Charity, Chef Meshack and waiter Moses were all super cool!...

An oasis in the desert. This is a lodge with tired rooms however it was clean. Our group of 3 retired couples do NOT like buffets and all meals are served buffet style - lots of mediocre food. Biggest complaint was they ATTEMPTED to label foods on the buffet as gluten free BUT were not consistent and in fact mislabeled some as gluten free when they were NOT! Staff was attentive and location good for exploration of this desert area and wildlife viewing in Samburu National Reserve and Buffalo Springs National Reserve.

My name is FCS Panuel Nyaga, CEO of Global Training & Management Consultancy Limited, specializing in consultancy, training, HRM practice, strategic management, and governance advisory. I had the pleasure of staying at Sarova Shaba from 9th to 12th September 2024 while facilitating a team-building retreat for KenGen Staff Retirement Benefits Scheme. Throughout our three-day stay, the service was truly exceptional in every respect. The staff’s dedication to making our experience memorable was outstanding. The dining experience was a highlight, with Chef Salamba and Chef Jane delivering meals that were both delicious and abundant. Their attention to detail and commitment to ensuring our satisfaction was remarkable. A special mention goes to Mr. Robert Kimotho, who provided my team with personalized service, demonstrating an impressive level of professionalism and competence. He ensured that our stay was both comfortable and enjoyable. I already miss the place and look forward to returning. I highly recommend Sarova Shaba to friends and my colleagues in the business world.

We had a lovely outdoor breakfast on the lawn beside the fast-flowing Ewaso Nyiro River and with the Shaba Game Park across the river. The monkeys were there for breakfast too. It was a live cooking by Chef Edwin and the crew, including Moses, Paul, John, Hassan. They ensured we enjoyed our special breakfast, and the monkeys stayed in the tree. Thanks to all the dining staff who organized this special event for us. The lodge is in a green oasis with beautiful high ceilings open-air restaurant /bar area. The setting is relaxing, and the delightful swimming pool makes it even more so. Thanks to the pool staff James” Mr. Safari Water” The quality and variety of the food is terrific. They call it the “Shaba cuisine “The Manager has a very nice designer shirt which he refused to part with.

This was a great start to our safari. The location is beautiful, especially the lodge. The rooms are also very nice, along the river. We had a good game drive, saw a cheetah sleeping at the base of a tree almost immediately. Food and staff were also terrific.
