Reviewers Mention About Severin Safari Camp

The Severin Safari Camp has a beautiful setting, lovely rooms, and a great pool. The massages and morning walk with a ranger were wonderful. However, there were some issues with the service. The camp (Read More) did not ask about preferred activities upon arrival and were unable to accommodate a game drive on the last day. There were also communication issues with arranging transportation and a lack of accommodation for dietary restrictions. Despite these issues, guests still enjoyed their stay and recommended the camp for its personal and hospitable service. The camp offers a unique and intimate experience in the middle of nature, with comfortable accommodation, delicious food, and friendly staff. Guests enjoyed the excursions and saw an abundance of animals. It is considered value for money and highly recommended for a peaceful and restful safari. The staff provided a welcoming and thoughtful experience, with clean tents and good amenities. The camp is located in Tsavo West National Park, offering an extraordinary experience of dining next to giraffes and zebras. Safety was ensured by the Massai guides. The food and drinks were of high quality with a good variety of options.

Superb

Exceptional location and relaxing place

The location, the spa/swimming pool, the kindness of the staff

Booking.com did not mention that we would not be in the camp but 5 mn away by car with self-catering. Fortunately, there were available tents and the staff arranged a stay at the camp, but it costed double the initial price, which was not expected.

Superb

great, always again....

We have stayed there before and will always return when in Tsavo West. The best is the use of the swimming pool and the bonfire in front of the house at night while using the small kitchen to prepare a warm meal!!!!

Very good

Nice lodge but we felt a bit cut off on the self-catering bandas.

Nice lodge serving excellent (but expensive) food.

We stayed in the self-catering Kitani Bandas (cottages), from where we had to drive to the main lodge to make use of its facilities.

Pleasant

Perfect location, but poor accomodation ( at the bandas)

Very friendly and polite staff. Delicious food. Perfect location inside Tsavo West national park.

While the tents are very luxurious, the bandas seem kinda abandoned. There isn't any means to transfer from the camp to the bandas, and its prohibited to walk due to wildlife. Likely we gad our driver. Inside the apartment there were insect (spider) and one lizard. The food is quite expensive, and the bandas are quite expensive, compared to the quality. Last and most important, there was an issue with the hot water. Me and my wife had to take our shower without hot water, thus resulting waking up the next morning with a cold. We are not sure about the camps, but the bandas are kinda poor. Totally not worthy the money they charged.

Disappointing

greatly overpriced and under delivered.

The receptionist showed great empathy and tried her best to respond to our complaints.

We arrived at 7,30pm in the evening after a long drive from Arusha that included a border crossing. One of the security guards at the hotel explained that we were rater late... this is not the kind of welcoming the two co-owners advocate in their brochure. We were given two bandas about one kilometer away from the hotel facilities. and its staff. The bandas are part of a previous Lodge with a different name. Numerous of the bandas seemed abandoned and were run down (see photo). We were told by staff that animals (including lions and buffalos) access the property of the bandas at night. Yet, the hotel did not provide any security staff around the bandas at night- something I have not seen in any other hotel or lodge in other parks in the past. In our bandas there was one piece of soap. No welcome water, no shampoo, no shower gels. The mosquito nets were with holes (see photo). In the 'kitchen' we found one glass for four guests. The light in the drive way was broken/did not work. Dinner for kids and adults was a set menu at almost 40 US Dollars per person with no other options- kids regardless of age paid the same price. Breakfast was buffet style at 20 dollars - kids regardless of age paid the same price.

Disappointing

Good location but overpriced and mediocre.

good location, good breakfast, comfy bed

- no hot water - room we booked was not available and no one told us until we got there; we got a downgrade and a massage as bonus - confusing checkin, very confused and grumpy staff - no mosquito net in the room; we had a few mosquitoes and flies even though we were reassured there were none - people allowed to smoke in the common area - taps in the room spraying water everywhere - one of the bottles of water we ordered tasted very heavily like disinfectant

Very good

Nice lodge and bandas located in the middle of the wilderness (the view is a bit limited though). Great staff who treated us very fairly (one of us was sick and was served a minimal breakfast without being charged).

The Bandas are in a different, non-walkable location from the main lodge. That wasn't clear from the booking page. Breakfast wasn't a buffet and needed to be ordered; it took forever to be served (almost 1 hour).

Bad

Unethical business practice

Could be a good location in the parc but is badly managed. Infrastructure generally apealing but needs investment.

Unhappy and unmotivatwd personnel. Tried to trick us into signing an encompassing waiver of liability, which we refused. Then they coerced us by claiming we couldnt stay if we didnt sign. Given time and remote location this meant that the threatened that we had to sleep in our car in the national park, with four small children and among wild animals. Unethical if not illegal. Also no electricity in the night (stopping generatirs) and only cod water.
