Desert Rose is a unique eco friendly lodge, located on the verdant forest slopes of Mt Nyiru which towers majestically above the Elbarta plains, between Maralal and Lake Turkana in North Kenya. Hosted by Emma and her team of Samburu men and women, it's whole philosophy is GREEN, from a gravity fed water system to solar water heating and power. The beautiful attention to detail and isolated serenity makes it a MUST for anyone travelling the Northern Frontier of Kenya. !"
 
The five houses accommodating up to twelve people are individually designed around various natural features. Each suite has it's own private flush toilet and open air en-suite bathroom. The main lounge and pool area have been hand crafted to blend with the indigenous gardens, landscaped to enhance the dramatic views and all the power is solar generated.
 
The remote location ideally requires a full week in order to fully appreciate the tranquil ambience and the multitude of activities to chose from. Check our excursions page for all your options. Despite its remote location, the lodge is very child-friendly, encouraging families with kids of all ages.
 
Using our home grown fruits and vegetables and the best Kenya butcher, our meals are simply delicious. Dietary subtleties can be catered for on request. There is a fully stocked bar
