Consistently rated as one of the top retreats in the world, the eight-story tower is one of the most luxurious and less known of kenyan hideaways. Custom-built by Dodo Cunningham-Reid for seasoned romantics, guests are able to enjoy breath-taking views over oloidien bay and follow at eagle-eye the movements of the hippos grazing at the foot of the tower. The rustling of the lake and the sounds of the bush create at all hours a magical symphony of peace and tranquillity, broken only by the splashing of water as the hippos venture out into the bush under the cover of darkness. from the first floor verandah nature lovers can enjoy a safe and relaxing sunset viewing while the top meditation room is reserved to those who want to plunge silently into the essence of africa.
