Enasoit Camp – Exclusive Safari Retreat in Laikipia, Kenya
A Private Story in the Wild
As dawn breaks over the Laikipia Plateau, golden light sweeps across the savannah and the first calls of the wild echo through the bush. From your verandah at Enasoit Camp, giraffes stroll across the plains, zebra graze by the waterhole, and elephants emerge from the fever trees.
This is not a typical safari lodge — it is your own private wilderness camp, where exclusivity, luxury, and nature blend seamlessly. Available only on an exclusive-use basis, Enasoit is a place where your family or group can experience Kenya’s wild beauty in total privacy.
