Elewana is excited to announce the opening of the new Little Elephant Pepper Camp in Mara North Conservancy and the completion of a major refurbishment of Lewa Safari Camp in Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, enhancing one of the most impressive Conservancy footprints of any East African safari accommodation collection.
Little Elephant Pepper Camp with just three spacious safari suites and one two-bedroom family suite, each with a private veranda and plunge pool is the first ultra high-end luxury accommodation in the Mara North Conservancy. Located just over half a kilometre away from the much-loved Elephant Pepper Camp, the intimate, low-impact camp is sheltered under the African pepper trees that give it its name. With no fences or permanent footprint, Little Elephant Pepper Camp offers guests an experience drawn from the traditions of mobile safari but with all the luxuries that discerning travellers have come to expect from this elevated level of safari.
The camp pays homage to classic safari style through campaign furniture, warm woods, brass detailing and an earthy palette, and a wellness treatment tent is available for post-safari recovery. New safari vehicles will transport guests as they explore the 72,000-acre conservancy, brimming with wildlife. Guests are aencouraged to explore on foot as walking safaris are available. The new Little Elephant Pepper Camp lends itself particularly well to couples, multi-generational families and small groups, with full buyout available given its boutique scale.
Lewa Safari Camp has reopened this month, following a complete restoration. The project has preserved the camp's warm and authentic character while enhancing the overall guest experience. New features include a redesigned central Dining Tree deck, shaded verandas, and grander guest safari tents. There is also a separate bar and comfortable lounge area, as well as an upgraded spa.
The 65,000 acres Lewa Wildlife Conservancy, is renowned for its black rhino and Grevy's zebra populations, and some of East Africa's most compelling conservation-focused safari experiences.
