Location:-
A sheltered oasis, clustered around a waterhole and set in the
pristine calm of its own private reserve, Sweetwaters Tented Camp
is in a class of its own. Abounding with wildlife, unfettered
by the more rigorous strictures of the Kenyan National Parks and
designed to offer a charming blend of under canvas ambiance and
uncompromising luxury, it has long been the preferred retreat
of wilderness and safari lovers alike. One of only four private
game reserves in Kenya, Sweetwaters excels in the provision of
privileged seclusion and private game viewing. Thanks to its private
status it also allows such unforgettable pleasures as night game
drives, guided bush walks and both horse or camel riding across
its game-teaming plains.
Built in the 1970’s, the Camp’s main building was originally the
residence of the ranch manager of this private reserve. Both the
Sweetwaters Game Reserve and the sumptuous Ol Pejeta Ranch were
once the private domain of famed multi-millionaire, Adnan Kashoggi.
