Considered the best beach in Kenya, Diani offers all of the activities of a beach visit in the seclusion of a lavish, opulent private villa.
BORANA | DAY 1 – 4
Upon arrival in Nairobi, you’ll fly to Borana where Lengishu House awaits your family.
Lengishu House features six beautifully appointed bedrooms within four cottages, which are situated apart from the main house. All rooms face east over the valley below, offering spectacular sunrise views. There is also a spectacular infinity pool.
Borana Conservancy is home to the Big Five, along with an abundance of other species of African wildlife. Here, you’ll have the freedom to choose your own itinerary and are not bound by the constraints of other safari lodges.
Activities are in abundance and fully flexible, including private game drives both on land and by air, mountain biking, and horse riding through the conservancy, as well as the rare opportunity to help with the conservation efforts by helping to track rhinos on foot.
Whilst you are encouraged to explore the many great safari adventures in the conservancy, Lengishu has a wide range of facilities to enjoy when you simply wish to relax and unwind at home. With a gym, billiards table, infinity pool, studio and pétanque pitch, and the wonderful in-house masseuse, Lengishu is a peaceful refuge from everyday life.
Overnight at Lengishu House, 3 nights
MASAI MARA | DAY 4 – 7
You’ll fly to Masai Mara, where your family is welcomed at Cottar’s Private Bush Villa.
A contemporary, elegant private villa; the only luxury private villa in the Masai Mara, Kenya. Cottar’s Bush Villa won the World Travel Award for Africa’s Leading Luxury Private Villa in 2016 and is one of only eleven Global Ecosphere Retreats in the world.
The Mara conservancies are Maasai-owned group ranches that have combined to conserve a total area nearly the size of the Maasai Mara National Reserve itself, covering 1450 km2 (560 mi2) across fifteen conservancies.
The wildlife in the conservancies can be comparable to the main Maasai Mara game reserve, and in fact, some areas have higher densities of predators than in the central reserve. Because there are fewer camps, the conservancies can offer a more exclusive experience than in the central reserve, with generally fewer game viewing vehicles around sightings
Overnight at Cottar’s Private Bush Villa, 3 nights
UKUNDA, DIANI BEACH | DAY 7 – 9
You’ll fly to Ukunda, Diani, where the staff at Alfajiri Garden Villa await your family.
Alfajiri Garden Villa overlooks the Indian Ocean. The elevated position ensures privacy and stunning views of Diani Beach, considered one of the best in Kenya.
The private villa features a large lushly landscaped veranda and a private infinity edge swimming pool with unforgettable views of the Indian Ocean’s changing tides. Your family will enjoy the rolling lawn that flows from the pool and terrace down to an intimate beach. The large main veranda under a massive makuti roof, okra floor, wooden beams, and impressive artifacts all reflect the outstanding attention to detail and interior design.
Many consider Diani Beach, and its extension Galu Beach, to be not only one of the most beautiful beaches in Africa but likely in the world.
It is about 17 km (10 mi) long, from the Kongo River in the north to Galu Beach in the south (the southern point of reference is an old Baobab tree). The coast’s white sand and warm clear turquoise waters are protected by the continuous coral reef, making for very good fishing and snorkelling. Diani is a popular spot for kitesurfing and sky diving and is not far from the Shimba Hills National Reserve, which looks out over the Indian Ocean.
Overnight at Alfajiri Garden Villa, 2 nights
DAY 10
You’ll fly to Nairobi, with a transfer to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. Safe travels home!
