Welcome to Salt Lick Safari Lodge
One of the most photographed lodges in the world, Salt Lick Safari Lodge is built on stilts around a busy waterhole in the private Taita Hills Sanctuary. Every room has a private balcony overlooking the waterhole, and underground tunnels lead to viewing bunkers. Watch elephants, buffalo, and predators 24/7 — right from your bed!
