Loisaba sits on 60,000 acres on its own private game ranch. Loisaba Wilderness is outstandingly beautiful, its abundant wildlife is truly wild and it is comfortable beyond measure.

Loisaba Lodge is set on the escarpment with 7 rooms. Constructed from stone, local timber and thatch, the lodge is perched high on the edge of the plateau looking south towards Mount Kenya. Each room has large French windows that open onto a private deck cantilevered off the escarpment. The views are legendary, and a water hole a few hundred feet below draws continuous wildlife. All the furniture in the lodge is handmade at Loisaba. The lodge has a swimming pool, tennis court, bocce court and croquet lawn. The spa offers massage and beauty treatment and a romantic open-air bubble bath, all with a tranquil view of the unspoilt Karissia Hills. Kiboko Starbeds are 20 minutes from the lodge and over look the dam, Koija Starbeds are 30 minutes away from the lodge and overlook the Ewaso Nyiro river. Each star bed is dramatically designed, on a handcrafted wooden raised platform, and partially covered with a thatched roof.
