Welcome to Elephant Bedroom Camp – Where Luxury and Wilderness Walk Side by Side
Tucked beneath the shade of doum palms and acacia trees on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, Elephant Bedroom Camp offers a magical blend of barefoot luxury and untamed wilderness in the heart of Samburu National Reserve. With elephants often strolling through camp and the Samburu Special Five just a game drive away, this is a place where the boundaries between man and nature beautifully blur.

Nestled on the riverfront inside Samburu, a rugged, semi-arid region known for its rare wildlife and rich cultural heritage.
