The 30 hexagon tents with a private deck offer practically 360-degree views of the bush and river where animals come to drink and graze. Choose from eighteen doubles, nine twin beds or three with triple beds based on your group or family size. Inside it, you will find a small siting area and dressing table with chairs, side tables, luggage rack, shoulder-height wardrobe and an en-suite bathroom with a nice shower cubicle guarded by a frosted glass door.

We recommend that you consider the location of your tent on the property. While there is a stone path that leads to the common area, some guest tents require a longer walk. As such, you may prefer a tent closer to the main areas should you be planning a family holiday at Samburu National Reserve or if you have limited mobility. If having up-close-and-personal wildlife viewing from your tent is important, we recommend a guest tent closest to the river. The rooms at Ashnil Samburu are well-maintained and very clean, but be wary of the monkeys that hang around the tents. Monkeys are known to take items from the deck and climb on the roof of the tent for play.
