Nice lodge with a terrace facing the game park. The service was good and the staff was very nice. The lodge it self was clean and tidy but we did have some problems keeping the mosquito net over the bed closed. Great food in the restaurant both for dinner and breakfast.

We stayed at this lodge in October 2012 and it was absolutely wonderful! Clean, great food, back-window view of some of the wildlife and all-round perfect for a safari trip! Will definitely be going back as soon as we return to Kenya! Staff were wonderful, helpful and so informative! LOVE THIS PLACE !X

On arrival at lunch time we were welcomed with ice cold face cloths to cool us down and a welcome cold drink whilst our guide checked us in.

We stayed for one night at the Aruba Lodge as part of a safari package.It is quite deep into the park which is nicer and more tranquil than some of the other larger lodges near the entrance. It gives you a real sense of being on a safari. You can choose a room or a tent (glamping style) as accommodation.... More

This was the third Ashnil property during my 3 week holiday in Kenya and the quality of the accommodation, cleanliness and amazing staff was duplicated in Tsavo. Lovely, lovely room with a balcony that looked onto the waterhole where animals just "happened" to wander by. Food was good, staff couldn't do enough to help. Tsavo is a beautiful national treasure... More

We stayed at Aruba Lodge in July 2011, the drought year for a week, with two game drives every day. It was my first time in Kenya and was surprised at the wildlife just walking past the lodge. As the lodge is by the dam, the watering hole, then many elephants, zebras and other animals come to drink. There was... More
