Overview

Salt Lick Lodge is an iconic safari lodge set within the Taita Hills Wildlife Sanctuary, famous for its striking elevated, round rooms that stand on stilts above a busy wildlife waterhole. The unique design allows guests to watch elephants, buffaloes, antelopes, and even big cats from the comfort of their balconies or from the underground viewing tunnel that brings you close to the animals at eye level. Surrounded by open savannah and gently rising hills, the lodge offers a blend of comfort, panoramic views, and constant wildlife activity, especially in the evenings when animals gather to drink. Its atmosphere is peaceful and intimate, making it one of Kenya’s most memorable and photogenic safari stays.
