Situated on the northern edge of the Laikipia plateau, Ol Malo is
nestled into a rugged escarpment looking out across the time-honoured
lands of Kenya’s Northern Frontier District. Built, owned and managed by
the Francombe family, with the help of the Samburu people, Ol Malo has
established a reputation for first class service and tireless attention
to detail. Rocky and Colin have been welcoming guests into their home
for over 16 years.
Their son Andrew has joined them at the helm and is
proving to be particularly popular with families as his sense of
adventure and endless energy makes every guest’s experience unique.
Every room in the intimate four bedroom lodge and beautiful 6 bedroom
house is individually decorated, blending traditional local style with
luxurious hand woven furnishings and thoughtful touches – a home away
from home. Each spacious room has an ensuite bathroom and cascading
shower, an oversize hot tub and private verandah There is no shortage of
activities available at Ol Malo and each visit is tailor made to fit
every guest.
The surrounding plains and valleys are teaming with game
and provide regular sightings of wild dog and the elusive leopard is
seen daily from the hide by the water hole. At Ol Malo, guests are
encouraged to experience Kenya beyond the game viewing vehicle; walking
and watching herds of elephant, riding with the rare grevy zebra and
reticulated giraffe or trekking through the ancient Samburu lands with
camels. Fly-camping on the shores of the river, listening to the
Francombe’s stories of Kenya’s bygone age is an experience not to be
missed.
