We stayed here on the first night of our safari, rooms were basic but OK, food good. The selling point of the hotel would be its proximity to a water hole where the animals can be seen, it was great during the evening to sit near a camp fire with a beer watching a massive bull elephant on the other...

we stayed at the lodge for one night, january 24 2012. It is very tired and not well cared for. screens were ripped so the bugs could come in the room. mosquito net did not fit snugly so it provided no protection. the food was mediocre at best and the staff was not very helpful or friendly. we stayed at...

I had a pause with lunch and some free hours in this place during my safari in Tsavo East national Park. It was very nice place. Food served in restaurant was delicius and choise of different meals was more than sufficent. The moment when you swim in the swimming pool when you can watch the wild animmals just few metters...

we were quite disappointed with our experience in Aruba. Reading the previous reviews, we were expecting the BEST. Having lived in Kenia for many years and done safari from Kenia to South Africa, we find this place not charming in comparison to even the less expensive lodges we had been.

We only went on a 2 day one night safari organised brilliantly by JT Safaris and in hindsite could have done with staying 2 nights here. After a morning game drive we arrived at the lodge at lunchtime and was greeted with cool wet towels and welcome drinks to freshen us up. The staff are all very friendly and after... More

I went there with my Family for only two nights. The road to the lodge is very well maintained with good access to any type of car. The staff in the lodge really cared for us, and accommodation is excellent. The food is ok, with a very good diversity, including local and indian dishes to fill our curiosity for different... More

We did a three day / two night safari with JT Safaris - Julius Tact Safaris. (Don't be fooled by other safari companies with a similar name, these are the guys to go with. Their website is www.julius-safaris.com and it's run by the delightful Julius K.Nzumbi) and we stayed here on our first night. We were given an extremely warm... More

We stayed here at the beginning of December 2011. First things first, the waterhole is not 'empty' as claimed in many reviews. However, it looks at about half capacity. We stayed in a tented room which was immaculately clean, beautifully furnished and came with a couple of little lizards you would expect in this part of the world. The view... More

We just spent our vacation in Kenya and had the chance to stay at the Aruba Safari Lodge located in the Tsavo East National Park. What a surprise!!! Wonderful people, the staff is more than friendly, professional, and the food (considering the isolated location) wonderful, even French Chocolate Eclair...The tent accommodations are to die for, the surroundings are out of...
