About this property

Unique 2-story tower with 360° wildlife views and stargazing showers.

The Watch Tower is a two-story retreat once used as a horse-racing lookout. With a bedroom offering 360-degree views of the private wildlife sanctuary, a kitchen and dining space downstairs, and a private outdoor deck, it is designed for couples or solo travelers seeking nature and peace. The enclosed double shower under the stars makes for an unforgettable experience.

Perfect little oasis

We really enjoyed our stay! It seems small at first blush, but the close proximity somehow made it more special us (we were a couple that stayed for one night after climbing elephant hill). The views were amazing and we enjoyed the morning visit from a troop of curious monkeys. Would highly recommend.

Amazing and relaxing

Sanctuary Farm is a very special place. Somewhere you can walk with zebras and giraffes and relax like nowhere else. In addition, the food in the restaurant is good and the bed in the watchtower very comfortable. It's not cheap, but it is worth every penny

Watchtower for ever

I fell in love with this wonderful place. It is peaceful, animals are all around, and the watchtower is beautifully made. I like the architecture of the little house. The shower under the stars, the view from the bed…I wished I could stay longer! The food in the restaurant is full of flavours, there is a lot of love in the hearts from the people that work here. I will remember this place the rest of my life. Petra

Beautiful place in Naivasha

We loved our stay at the watch tower. It has all the amenities for a comfortable stay, and it's in the middle of a sanctuary, really close to lake Naivasha. You can spot animals roaming around every day from your bedroom, and you're free to explore the whole sanctuary. There is a nice restaurant on site serving drinks and pizzas. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Can't wait to return.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Such a peaceful refuge. We were able to observe lots of animals, including giraffes from very close. I liked that there are no noisy safari-style jeeps. One can quietly walk, ride, boat, or cycle around. The vibe is simple and caring. The watchtower is a cosy hideout with a great view. The staff is wonderful. And the indoor/outdoor restaurant is *amazing*. Every meal we ate there was exquisite. Thank you.

Living among wildlife - a truly unreal experience

We had an amazing time at Sanctuary Farm by Lake Naivasha in Kenya — it was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our entire trip. The accommodation in the tower was both cozy and exotic. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and to prepare our own meals, although we didn’t cook because the on-site restaurant fully met our needs — which was especially important for us as vegetarians! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist us with anything we needed. We only stayed in the tower for one night, but what a night it was! In the morning, we woke up to find zebras and a giraffe standing right outside our porch — it was absolutely stunning and surreal! The night safari also exceeded our expectations. We honestly hadn’t expected much, but it turned out to be an unforgettable adventure.

Things ti do better

El lugar es increíble, la torre es fantástica muy bien equipada, pero cuando llegamos nos faltó más información de dónde estábamos y las posibilidades que teníamos, también al siguiente llegamos sobre las dos y media y estaban dos chicas limpiando el horno, que no habíamos utilizado y no pudimos hacernos la comida, estuvimos esperando un largo rato y al final tuvimos que irnos, cuando regresamos vimos que habían cambiado el electrodoméstico, sinceramente lo podrían haber hecho en otro momento en el que no hubiera clientes porque nos obligó a ir a comer fuera y no entraba en nuestros planes.
