The reception at the Karen Blixen Coffee Garden and Cottages, Ltd. is the Historic Swedo House which was the original hunting lodge/farmhouse, built between 1906 and 1908. It is located approximately half a mile from the Karen Blixen Museum (Bogani House from the film “Out of Africa”) and is a 30-minute drive from downtown Nairobi.
The luxury hotel cottages were built in 2001, and are adjacent to the Karen Golf and Country Club where guests can enjoy a host of leisure activities, including golf, tennis, and squash. A host of other amenities such as shops, restaurants, and financial services can all be found nearby, within the Karen suburb.
The Coffee Garden sits on 5 acres of land with large hundred-year-old trees, beautiful gardens and a pool, and hundreds of different varieties of blooming flowers, and a large population of birds. The historic Grogan/MacMillan Manor House is an additional historic feature that was moved brick by brick from downtown Nairobi to the Karen Blixen Coffee Garden in 2008 to save it from demolition. It is now used for special occasions and dining.

Entim Camps consists of two distinct accommodations - the Main camp and the Private camp.
The main camp offers an authentic safari experience with 12 spacious guest tents. Each tent is comfortably furnished, blending naturally with the surrounding environment, and offers spectacular views of the adjacent plains, creating a serene atmosphere that allows guests to connect with the reserve's unique landscape.
The private camp is an exclusive retreat nestled in the heart of the reserve, featuring seven guest tents and one family unit. This camp offers a more personal, intimate experience. After spending the day exploring the reserve, guests can unwind in the luxurious settings of their tents, all of which boast remarkable views over the River. They can witness the life-giving waters that attract a diverse range of wildlife and observe the expansive plains stretching all the way to distant undulating escarpments and volcanically-sculpted hills.
The private camp has recently undergone massive upgrades to enhance its appeal and offer greater comfort and luxury. These upgrades have been carefully done to ensure guests enjoy the most refined safari experience. Both our camps at Entim allow you to immerse yourself fully in the wonders of the Kenyan wilderness, promising a Safari experience par excellence.

Saruni Leopard Hill is a contemporary-looking 6-tents safari camp located in the heart of Mara Naboisho Conservancy, in the midst of the African wilderness. Combining high-end living and pure nature in what is considered one of the best-managed conservancies in the Masai Mara eco-system, it is located close to a series of 3 waterholes where the wild animals come to drink through the day.
The secluded valley where it sits is also the home of an historically and culturally significant Masai Mara Fig Tree. Dubbed Double Fig Tree, it was struck by lightning in the 1950s, as told by the local people. The tree was splintered in two, giving it its unusual shape, and it is revered by the maasai people.
Built almost under this Fig Tree, the camp has the perfect sunrises and sunsets. While enjoying your morning coffee on the terrace, you can admire the horizon, with the sky blazing in magnificent colours while the African savannah gives its soundtrack of wildlife calls.
