Campi ya Kanzi accommodates a maximum of 14 guests in six
thatched roof tented cottages and in the Hemingway and Simba
suites. The first one is named after the famous author who
wrote of the nearby Chyulu Hills in his book "Green Hills
of Africa", the latter one is named after the Swahili name
for Lion.
Each tented cottage enjoys a different view, and accommodates
one or two adults. An extra bed can be added for a child.
They feature either twin beds or a king-size bed, made at
the camp with local logs, with specially made linen imported
from Italy. A table, two safari chairs, a colonial trunk,
shelves and hangers for your clothes, and daily fresh flowers
complete the interior décor.
The suites feature king-size bed, a clothes room between the
bedroom and the bathroom, with cabinets. Bathrooms have double
sinks.
All tented cottages are constructed of stones, fabric, and wood and they feature a full elegant bath with shower, bidet, basin, and flush toilet and electric light; brass plumbing fixtures add an unexpected touch of elegance and comfort with hot and cold running water.
Each tented cottage has a wide veranda to provide superb views of either Mt. Kilimanjaro, the Tsavo Hills, and the Chyulu Hills. Our state-of-the-art solar system provides 220-volt electricity for your cottage (plugs and sockets are Italian).
Campi ya Kanzi is a special retreat far removed from the
hectic pace of the modern world. If necessary, however, you can
reach your home or business with the camp's satellite
phone.
Cell phones - luckily! - do not work.
With only eight tented cottages, there is ample distance from one to the other to guarantee every guest's privacy. Each tented cottage has a dedicated Maasai attendant assigned to it. At night, Maasai askari (night watchman) patrol the camp.
