Segera Retreat

5 star5 star5 star5 star5 star

Segera Retreat is a splash of green in a golden savannah. With a legacy of true Kenyan ranch life set against the filmic grasslands that landscape the foothills of  Mount Kenya, Segera has been rejuvenated into a fertile home for conservation, community, culture and commerce. Behind a living cactus boma, the lush gardens flicker with sunbirds and inspire with sculptures, pools and elegant thatched villas. 

Segera emits creative energy and the kind of hospitality you find with favourite friends. It is a beacon for interesting minds, mavericks, art lovers and those looking for fantastic wildlife experiences, wellness, incredible dining experiences and new ways to engage with Kenya's evolving culture. Segera's exclusively private 50,000 acres are home to lion, leopard, cheetah, elephant and buffalo as well as endangered species such as reticulated giraffe, Grevy's zebra, Lelwel's Hartebeest and African wild dog. You'll seek out these species along with classic plains game and up to 150 bird species on daily game drives in open-sided safari vehicles with talented guides. 

Accommodation: Segera is a wildly luxurious, private retreat for up to 36 guests in 10 villas with extraordinary views, wildlife and experiences.

Placed strategically for privacy throughout the lush botanical sculpture gardens and retreat grounds there are 5 beautifully styled Garden Villas and 5 private homes: Segera House, Villa Segera, Greenhouse, Garden House, and the Farmhouse. Each villa and home has luxurious, contemporary interiors, and beautiful views and is engineered to be ecologically sensitive.

Meandering pathways link the villas together and lead routes towards the spa and gym, Rasul steam tower, and the large saltwater pool. The Stables, Wine Tower, and Paddock House are wonderful dining venues and you’ll also find the C4C Exhibition Centre, the Segera shop for curios and curiosities, and our creative studio.

Purpose: Segera shares the holistic “4C” philosophy of balancing Conservation, Community, Culture and Commerce. Every stay with contributes to the creation of a beautiful, sustainable relationship between the community, the wildlife, the landscape and the people who want to explore the region.
