    Reviewers Mention About Salt Lick Safari Lodge

    Salt Lick Safari Lodge offers a great experience with delicious food and friendly staff. The game drives were not as exciting, but the rooms have nice views and the lodge provides an opportunity to s (Read More)ee animals up close. The lodge is safe and secure, with a watering hole near the main building where elephants frequently come to drink. The food is surprisingly good, and the lodge offers a unique dining experience with elephants in close proximity. Overall, a recommended lodge for a safari experience.

    A little piece of heaven.
    Everything, this is a truly magical place. A little piece of heaven. The location is stunning, the staff so friendly and the Game Drives with Joseph so exciting. We saw many animals, elephants, giraffes, zebras and the highlight being a fabulous lioness.
    Nothing, everything was perfect.

    When you combine sweet staff with unique surroundings and serene atmosphere, you get Salt Lick
    Best part of this lodge is the staff that works there. From the moment we arrived they did everything they could to make us feel welcomed! We had such a difficult time getting there due to unrelated matters. We arrived late, hadnt eaten anything all day and we were afraid we would miss dinner. Our way to the lodge was a long dust road. Driving it at night made for a mysterious and adventurous drive. The entrance to the lodge was beautifully lit and upon arrival we were met by the most understanding staff. They prepared a table just for us even if the kitchen was closed. So there we sat, in a dimmed restaurant with buffalos drinking right next to us. We had read some reviews beforehand which mentioned the rooms were outdated which I dont agree with. The rooms were unique and cozy. Some mentioned the beds were hard. Come on kings and queens, are we here to sleep in or explore the beautiful surroundings? Besides; firm beds are good for you. To us the lodge was absolutely perfect! We had the best time here and grew to, dare I say, even love the staff and the serene atmosphere.

    The only thing we disliked was they way they communicated with us over WhatsApp and email which was nearly non-exciting. But that goes for all our accommodations throughout our travel in Kenya.

    Very friendly staff ( driver Ngumbao was awesome), very professionally set up and good pre-arrangements when coordinating everything privately. Overall a really cool experience!
    Lunch is arranged in the partner hotel taita, which we didnt know but as we only stayed one night this wasnt that big of a deal.

    One of the most unique hotels you will find
    One of the most amazing accommodations of my life! The concept is just so unique and perfectly realized, we saw countless animals from our room and the terrace and everything ist very comfortable!
    The pick-up from Voi train station is actually unneccessarily expensive. If you just get a cab you will easily pay half the price. Also it came as a surprise that we had to pay daily park entrance on top.

    Great stay
    The location is beautiful and allowed us to watch all kinds of animals from our room. The elephants who come to the hotel to drink are especially impressive. The rooms, the service and the pool in the hotel nearby were great.

    Wonderful location, good food, great service!
    The food was good as usual, the location is amazing,
    The service is always great, but checkout has been an issue for the third time, as they can't seem to track the services provided and bill accordingly. Once I had to swipe my credit card three times as they kept tallying up for the services and having one come up missing. This time, I almost over paid as they billed me for a service never provided.

    Superb!
    The location of this property is in the middle of the national reserve. I could see animals right from my room. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was very delicious. The game rides were great. We managed to see so many species of animals ranging from the Lion, Hyenas, Elephants, Buffalos, Gyraffs, and many others. We also enjoyed the spar.
    The Google Maps route to the property is a little misleading. When you drive from Voi Town, there is a sign indicating that you should branch to the property only to realize that it's still a few kilometers away. This should be addressed.
