Lewa Sirikoi Lodge
Lewa Sirikoi Lodge
is a high quality option
in the Lewa Downs area
the best property on this famous private reserve
Lewa Sirikoi Lodge is located in the Lewa Downs area of northcentral Kenya.
The lodge was created in 2001 by Willie and Sue Roberts, who have been involved in the safari scene in Kenya since the 1970s. Family members are usually on hand to personally host the place, along with their mainly Maasai staff.
The place has the distinctive atmosphere of a colonial style homestead, with comfortable furnishings, copious flower arrangements and family photos in silver frames.
Out the front is a particularly active waterhole. You can often sit quietly outside the main building or by the swimming pool and watch various antelopes, vervet monkeys, baboons, giraffes, elephants and lots of different birds come down to drink.
Between the lodge and the waterhole, a high level electric fence keeps out elephants and giraffes in order to protect the trees, but otherwise the wildlife is free to wander the grounds.

Map
Laikipia South tends to feature in a relatively small proportion of trips, since most of our guests tend to head to the wilder areas further north, namely Laikipia South, Samburu and the Mathew’s Range. But this area can work, especially for guests interested in rhinos and horse-back safari.
The usual stay duration is 3-4 nights in one lodge.
Seasonality
The best time of year to visit Laikipia South is generally considered to be the Jun-Oct dry season, but there are very good reasons to visit during other months.
Getting there
The Laikipia South area is most commonly accessed by scheduled flight from Nairobi into the airport at Nanyuki, or by light aircraft direct into bush airstrips close to a specific camp.
It is also possible to connect by road with the Lake Naivasha area of the Rift Valley and with lodges in the Lewa Downs, Borana, Samburu, Laikipia North and Mathews Range areas, further to the east and north.
