Enjoying a location within a vast expanse of unfenced wildlife habitat, &Beyond Suyian Lodge offers a diverse range of safari and adventure activities:
Available during morning and evening, drives set out in search of elephant, buffalo, lion, cheetah, and the indigenous Laikipia hartebeest, as well as the more elusive species such as African wild dog and black (melanistic) leopard. You’ll also likely see large numbers of Grevy’s zebra, gerenuk, and reticulated giraffe.
Take to the bush accompanied by an expert guide and explore the spectacular landscape of undulating kopjes and vast plains, home to unique wildlife and plant species.
Few experiences are more exhilarating than exploring Laikipia’s dramatic terrain by camel or horseback. This offers a unique perspective on the land and its resident wildlife.
Accompany local herders as they graze 2,500–3,000 cattle and witness the age-old way of life belonging to the region’s indigenous people.
Take to the Ewaso Narok River for a catch-and-release fishing trip, or journey farther north to Lake Turkana for an unforgettable angling experience.
Meet local Pokot and Samburu community members by visiting one of the local villages.
Scale the sky on an early morning scenic flight over Mount Kenya or plan a full-day trip to the spectacular Matthews Range or Lake Turkana.
Enjoy a relaxed picnic lunch accompanied by your guide on the banks of the beautiful Ewaso Narok river.
Surrounded by stillness and the sounds of nature, these sessions occur either in the lodge studio or outside on natural rock platforms.
*This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.
Situated in a private conservancy within Kenya’s north-west Laikipia region, &Beyond Suyian Lodge is approximately 5 hours by car from Nairobi. Safarilink and Air Kenya offer scheduled twice-daily flights from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to Loisaba Airstrip in Laikipia, followed by a 1-hour vehicle transfer to Suyian Conservancy. Alternatively, private flight charters directly into Suyian’s private airstrip are also available.
There are various indoor and outdoor dining areas, including the chef’s table in the house kitchen, a private dining room, and the option for guests to dine in-suite, on their private terrace under a starlit sky.
Pre-dinner drinks are enjoyed around the campfire-style sunken firepit, and there’s also an outdoor courtyard with an open-fire cooking area. The Samburu Bar features indoor and outdoor seating at the heart of the lodge, while the library, lounge, and map room is a great place to interact with other guests or learn about the region and its wildlife. A rim-flow swimming pool offers the perfect respite from the hottest hours of the day between game-viewing activities, and there’s a discreetly located wellness center with two treatment rooms, each with a private shower, changing area, and veranda, plus an additional steam room with a cold plunge pool. The lodge also has a small state-of-the-art gym with cardio and strength-training fitness equipment, and an outdoor shaded yoga studio offering twice-daily sessions for groups or individuals.
Guest accommodation at &Beyond Suyian consists of 14 suites, including a two-bedroom Family Suite and the option for a Triple Suite on request.
Each unit has its own terrace with viewing deck and plunge pool, while indoor/outdoor showers boast stunning views of the surrounding wilderness. Inspired by the region’s granite kopjes and undulating hills, the lodge architecture blends perfectly with its surroundings, and the comfortable, contemporary style features over-sized windows, soft lighting, muted tones, and plenty of natural wood, thatch, and stone, allowing the landscape to take center stage.
