Sweetwaters is the name adopted by the
local people for the fresh sweet water tapped
from the ground. Sweetwaters Tented Camp lies
in the heart of 24,000 acre Sweetwaters Game
Reserve, with magnificent views across the
plains to the snow capped peaks of Mount Kenya.
Built in the '70s the main building was the
residence of billionaire Adna Khashoggi's
ranch manager.
A recent addition, the luxuriously
appointed ensuite tents overlook the waterhole,
a haven for thirsty wildlife. Floodlit by
night, the waterhole provides excellent and
secluded game viewing. Located in typical
savanna grasslands, interrupted by the "Whistling
Thorn" and other Acacia trees, Sweetwaters
is truly an oasis. It offers guests the indulgence
of a swimming pool, some of the finest tented
accommodation in Kenya, and a personalised
service and attention.
Guests may go on Game Drives
and see giraffe, zebra, eland, oryz, waterbuck,
gazelle, elephant, buffalo, cheetah, lion,
jackal, ostrich, hartebeest, baboon and rhino.
There is also spectacular bird life to be
seen. You may also go Horse riding, camel
riding, walking with a Naturalist, and take
Game Drives at night. A new addition to Sweetwaters
is the Chimpanzee Sanctuary.
