The Chief’s House is the largest of our villas and is a huge three-bedroom villa that is beautifully designed, styled and furnished. There is lots of space, ambiance, and privacy for a group of friends to enjoy.

Here is an African minimalist design decorated with wonderful art, fabrics, and artifacts from across the continent.

The sculpted roof collects rainfall and blends into its rocky surroundings. Inside, the roof provides vaulted ceilings for the sumptuously cool modern interiors.

There are breathtaking views of the rolling mountains and rugged hills of northern Kenya and our private 40,000-acre Ol Lentille Conservancy. Our private wildlife reserve is home to elephants, greater kudu, African wild dogs, leopard, and the endangered Grevy’s zebra to name but a few.


The Colonel’s House is built on two floors, there are two large bedrooms on the upper floor where you can choose a king or twin beds. Both are luxuriously comfortable with delightfully soft bedding.

Each of the bedrooms has a large private terrace, accessed through double glass doors to enjoy and absorb the panoramic views. They also feature dressing rooms, sunken baths, and a roofless shower room.

A sweeping staircase leads to the sitting room – a great place for pre-dinner drinks and after-dinner storytelling.

Across the courtyard is the dining room which is decorated with antique maps and where you can have intimate meals together. Outside on the large terrace, there is a small plunge pool to cool off from the midday sunshine.

There are spectacular views, highlights include the snow-capped rugged peaks of Mount Kenya and the nearby elephant watering hole. Seeing these majestic animals stopping for a drink is a truly unique experience and is just one of the many amazing sights to behold in Ol Lentille’s 40,000-acre private conservancy.

This house is best for either single occupancy per each bedroom, twin beds can be changed to King, also can be made 1 single and 1 double, or 2 doubles (twins or kings for 2 couples).


The Sultan’s House brings the essence of Lamu, Zanzibar and the rest of the Swahili Coast to the wilderness of the Ol Lentille Conservancy in Laikipia. This villa overlooks a watering hole favoured by the elephants of Ol Lentille and is designed and furnished with very unique artefacts and furniture.

This is a vast one-bedroom thatched villa with an enormous bedroom, dressing area, and bathroom. Across a courtyard, there is a huge lounge and dining area with a beautiful terrace.

The villa is built between large rocks and has a soaring tightly-plaited papyrus roof which is a wonder of intricate craftsmanship. The exterior of the roof blends perfectly into the house’s rocky outer walls.

Limed boughs of African olive tree and delicate Swahili plaster carvings give this villa a really unique and special feel.

Sultan's House is best for a couple or single occupancy 1 King Bed.
