Steppes Discovery awaiting image

Situated on the Nguruman escarpment, this very contemporary lodge is positioned to make the most of an incredible view towards the Tanzania border. It is also near the soda lakes of Natron and Magadi, home to countless flamingos. Its six beautiful rooms are constructed with white stone, polished fig wood and thatch and each consists of a cool-pool and informal sitting area, a bathroom and a specially designed tent bedroom that includes vast windows and a canopied roof. The lounge and dining area are built with a high thatch roof and overlook the Great Rift Valley. Five minutes walk away Little Shompole has two executive suites, both en suite for those who want ultimate privacy and exclusivity.
