We had a great time at the Satao Camp. Unfortunatelly the Elefants were two days ago there and we didn't saw a lot of animals around the waterhole. But we were there at the rainseason and it was wet all over. So the animals didn't need to be there. But I need to come back and to whatch the animals,... More

We enjoyed a superb stay at Satao Luxury Camp! Friendly & welcoming staff, great location (waterhole in front of the camp and pure Tsavo wilderness in all other directions ;-)), good food and cosy yet perfectly equipped tents, that put you into AFRICA MOOD instantly! We also experienced a fabulous safari... I think I've never as many elephants on a... More

Food superb, divine luxury tents with amazing on suite bathrooms. In the evening hundreds of antelope came to the camp for the night, because they feel safe...that says it... More

We stayed one night, just before Christmas 2012. We booked direct, on-line, which was very straightforward. We were collected from our Shanzu hotel at 6am by a Satao camp driver and driven to Mombasa Bridge, where we transferred to a luxury coach, containing another dozen or so holidaymakers. Our Satao camp guide was very knowledgeable, amusing and interesting, feeding us... More

Very nice camp. The tents are large, clean, comfortable and cosy. The food is good. The camp is however quite large and part of a chain. The staff is professional and friendly. However, the camp lacks the exclusive atmosphere and does not provide the personalized service of smaller high end camps such as the Offbeat Safari camp in Meru or... More

Excellent food, tents have a great outlook in front of the water hole. Lots of animals just wandering around. Felt really safe, guides are there to take you to your tents when its dark. The staff were all lovely. The tents are decorated really nicely and the bathroom was really rustic and well designed. A really wonderful serene place to... More

What an amazing experience! We had the luxury to enjoy the luxury safari lodges around Xmas 2012 for 5 days. After 3 days we had the chance of enjoying the suite and the end of the camp. Our experience already started perfectly with the very friendly and patient welcome at the reception. All staff during our stay where assertive, focussed... More

This was our second trip to Satao Camp the last time being some 7 years earlier and were pleased to find the excellent standards had been maintained. The camp which is situated in the East of Tsavo East Park gives one the impression of having the park to oneself with very few other game drive vehicles encountered in the area.... More

We chose to stay at Satao Camp after numerous emails with Julius at Jt Safaris (Julius Tact) He recommended it to us and we are so glad he did. We arrived late to the camp on Tues 11th Dec owing to a mechanical breakdown. The staff welcomed us warmly & quickly took us to our "up-graded tent, Neca" It was... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Satao Camp is arguably one of the best locations in Africa for observing elephants from your tent. The atmosphere in the evenings with the Impala and Waterbuck sitting all around you is something quite unique and special. With only 20 tents Satao Camp is small and private. It is located away from the main congested areas of Tsavo so one can enjoy the privacy of being at one with nature. This is a true Safari Experience. ... more   less
