At 6,500-feet above sea level and nestled into a rocky stone hillside within the Lewa Borana Conservancy in the game-rich Kenyan Highlands, the ultra-luxurious hideaway Arijiju(whose name comes from the Masai word for the hill on which it sits) proposes to guests the chance to get away from it all. Set in one of Kenya’s most breathtaking natural landscapes, it is a captivating and discreet private house available for exclusive hire by groups of up to 10 persons – either one or two families or up to five couples. Offering numerous outdoor adventure activities with the opportunity to spot the best of Africa’s wildlife, it also takes a unique approach to animal conservation. Rather than your usual safari lodge, it is a family holiday home – credited as the most beautiful bush residence in Africa – run like a five-star hotel by Karina Jessop and a team of 14 resident staff members, which is all about understated luxury, peace, monastic serenity, privacy and returning to nature.
Elsewhere, guests can make use of a beautifully designed dining room with softening chandeliers, a games room, a home cinema with huge lazy chairs, a 25-meter infinity lap pool, a spa and gym, and a library which doubles up as a serene office with brand new Apple Macs to use. Arijiju’s family of 14 resident staff are on hand to attend to your every need; a host couple, safari guides, activities rangers, butlers, maids, and a team of superb chefs.
Guests are welcome to the tennis and squash courts, hammam, gym and yoga deck, and 5-hours of beauty and spa treatments per day from the wonderful Frida, all included in the rate. For joggers, Arijiju is a treat. Endless trails along hill ridges, accompanied of course by rangers and a backup vehicle.
Not just a magical Big 5 safari destination; Arijiju prides itself on a powerful environmental consciousness. The entire house is now run from solar power and all food is sourced locally if not from their own gardens. Morning juice blends, yoga in front of passing wildlife, and elephants drinking from the pool – all part of the daily norm here.
At Arijiju you can fully immerse in the magic of Kenya with ease and comfort, while enjoying an active outdoor healthy lifestyle. You can be certain of peace, quality, beauty and adventure but also that you are travelling consciously, while supporting front-line rhino conservation.
