Cabins in Amboseli

Staff were excellent ( Bernard, Duncan, Griffin, Chef, Hotel mgr) Food was great, Chef was very accommodating and doled out Kenyan dishes on request. Also has good veg options. Sleep quality was good, mattress are pretty comfy for people with back problems & better than many 5 stars in Kenya. We stayed 2 nights and could do safari for a day , Bernard helped us by optimizing park entrance fees else we would have overpaid! Air Mombasa damaged our bag lock it was not opening and we had a hard time but the hotel staff were very helpful in opening. The hotel has great views of Mt Kilimanjaro and is close to the park gates, good access to get in to park and also to go out on highways.

Tawi Lodge is a strikingly beautiful spot. Staff are super friendly and helpful. Lots to do - game drives and activities with knowledgeable guides arranged around your desires and schedule. Also Tawi is a relaxing location to sit and watch the wildlife who come by (there is an electric fence) including monkeys, impalas, giraffes and occasionally elephants using the mud hole. Food is absolutely exceptional. Each meal is unique, crafted by the in-house chef using ingredients grown in their greenhouse. The manager, Gladys, is a true delight. She cares about her guests and works hard to manage everyone's requests, always with a smile and a friendly positive attitude. Tawi is not inexpensive but includes all food (including wine!) and many activities (game drive are extra). So the cost ends up being reasonable.
