THE NOBU VIEW

The stay

Four private villas overlook northern Laikipia at Ol Lentille. Aloe and Boscia have plunge pools; Carissa suits two, while Acacia can split into independent suites with shared guiding.

Ol Lentille offers four individually designed villas on a high escarpment in northern Laikipia. Private living and dining spaces, dedicated staff and wide landscape views give the stay a house-based character, with activities arranged around the booking rather than a fixed group schedule.

Carissa is the one-bedroom choice for two, with an outdoor bath and secluded deck. Aloe and Boscia provide two and three bedrooms respectively, each with a private plunge pool. Acacia can be taken as a two-bedroom villa or divided into North and South suites; guests booking those suites separately share their safari guide and vehicle. A larger infinity pool, library and spa complement the villa facilities.

Nobu would consider Ol Lentille for families and friends who value flexible private time, or couples choosing a clearly defined smaller allocation.
