Out of all the stays, my favourite was at solio Lodge. Somehow it was more personalised, the house keeping service was top notch with hot bath prepared and hot water bottled tucked ready for bedtime...

We travelled to Kenya through the Safari collection and were lucky enough to stay at all of their properties. I cannot stress enough how amazing this experience was - each property has a unique personality and should not be missed...
