Segera Retreat

On the Laikipia plateau between Mount Kenya and the Great Rift, Segera’s timber villas rise on stilts from a botanical garden — an oasis of sculpture, champagne cellars and quiet luxury at the heart of a 50,000-acre working conservancy.

Why We Love It

Segera proves conservation and indulgence belong together: the conservancy shelters elephant, reticulated giraffe and Grévy’s zebra, while the retreat houses one of Africa’s most important contemporary art collections and the original biplane from Out of Africa.

The Experience

Game drives meet bush picnics, anti-poaching dog-unit visits, sundowners at the wine tower and treatments in the wellness garden. Laikipia’s specialities — walking safaris and night drives — are all on the menu, far from any crowd.

Need to Know
