Who are we?

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 Italian 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 Manor House to yourselves.

What the Press have said about Dodo’s Tower

“

The mood is overwhelmingly romantic with lots of special touches crystal vases full of roses in every room and crisp white linen on the magnificent beds, recalling the spirit of colonial luxury.

The Tower holds to its surroundings, particularly in the morning and evening light, when it looks like another tree trunk

“

In the Tower as dusk comes, you can listen in safety to the noises of animals hunting and watch the mountains flush red violet as the sun spreads its brilliance, the light changes and changes.

The following morning I sat on the terrace overlooking the Lake, the hippos had by now formed a dark archipelago in the water, around them pelicans fished energetically and nearby scores of Flamingos stood on one leg preening and looking absurdly decorative. Swallows dipped and spun over the mirrored surface, which reflected the dramatic outline of the Rift Valley escarpment, while the sad cries of Egyptian Geese formed a haunting and melancholy counterpoint to the cheerful din of the frogs. The unoriginal thought briefly crossed my mind that Naivasha is the most beautiful place on earth.
