Wildlife Sanctuary

A managed habitat, not a backdrop.

Developed alongside the Kenya Wildlife Service, the sanctuary shares its boundary with the golf course and several residential precincts — resident wildlife roam freely rather than being confined for viewing.

In guests' words

What it feels like beyond the fairway.

Reflections from guests and families

"The snorkel trip was the highlight of the whole stay, not the golf. Watching the reef restoration work up close changed how I think about the whole estate."

Guest, 2026

"Our kids did the junior wildlife tracking three days in a row. They still talk about the guide more than they talk about the pool."

BN

"Sunrise yoga overlooking the fairway, then a quiet walk through the sanctuary — it's a completely different pace from anywhere else on the estate, and I needed that."
