Camp Details

Hippo Point is an exclusive private wildlife conservancy sitting on an isthmus between Lake Naivasha and Lake Oloidien at an altitude of 6,200 feet or 2,000 metres. With a near perfect microclimate, over 350 species of birds and an average of 1,200 resident animals roaming the grounds it is the perfect place to let go of your busy life – A sophisticated African environment to enjoy nature and have fun; catch up with yourself, enjoy family and friends. Fall asleep under Russian linen sheets, smothered by the stars of Africa, soothed by sounds of Hyena and Hippo calling in the night. Wake up early and breath in the cool spring air of altitude and walk among the game and birdlife along the lake shore, do yoga at sunrise, swim, jog with the Zebra, bike, meditate, read or simply enjoy breakfast in bed – here, you can do what you like when you like – and if you’re more than six – you get the whole place to yourselves.

Hippo Point is currently developing a highly restricted number of beautiful modern ecological villas for private sale to vetted conservation friendly individuals – tucked into the hillside and each with private pool overlooking Lake Oloidien these high end properties represent a blend of urban African sophistication and wilderness. A unique second home only 25 minutes from Nairobi by private plane or helicopter – providing unique comfort and fun in a slice of wilderness that will be hard to find in years to come.
