The stay

Kipalo Hills combines six safari tents, the Rock Suite and the Cliff Villa in Mbulia Conservancy. A shared pool and flexible safari days suit couples and families.

Kipalo Hills looks out from the slopes of the Mbulia Hills across a private conservancy bordering Tsavo West. Its small accommodation collection combines traditional safari tents with two more individually designed stays, allowing the room choice to shape how much time guests spend in their own space.

Six Traditional Safari Tents have private terraces and bathrooms with safari bucket showers. The Cliff Villa has a king bed, indoor and outdoor showers, a plunge pool and a rooftop terrace with a skybed.

A shared pool, open dining area and bar overlook the surrounding landscape. The camp runs on solar power, and Wi-Fi is described as available in the mess area. Children of all ages are welcome, with activities tailored to the family and the conditions on the day.

For Nobu, Kipalo suits travellers who prefer a small conservancy base and flexible safari days.
