Joy’s Camp
Shaba National Reserve:
An elegant oasis in the arid lands of Samburu;

 

 

 

 

Joy’s Camp is a newly launched elegant oasis in the arid lands of Samburu and built on the site of Joy Adamson’s tented home in Shaba National Reserve. The site was also home to Penny the leopard, the heroine of Joy’s Adamson last book.

The 10 chic canvas bedrooms of Joy’s Camp in Shaba National reserve are set raised off the ground with breathtaking views of the surrounding hills. The camp overlooks a large natural spring where elephant and lion jostle for watering rights with herds of buffalo and the rare desert species of Beisa Oryx, Reticulated Giraffe and Grevy’s Zebra.

Each sumptuous tent at Joy’s camp is uniquely decorated with Boran/Somali cloth design, handmade glass and the vibrant fabrics of the local nomadic tribes creating a chic, sophisticated and stylish camp. Each tent at Joy’s Shaba Camp has its own private verandah, ideal for private game viewing as well as relaxing, reading and soaking up the truly wild environs offered by Shaba. The eastern corner of the Samburu eco-system, Shaba is a secluded idyll; an arid landscape dotted with lush springs and rocky river gorges.

Joy’s Camp Kenya is the perfect choice for discerning guests interested in a glimpse of Kenyan history, as well as those looking for an authentic wildlife experience combined with the comfort of a luxury-tented camp.
