Segera Retreat
Stilted timber villas in a 50,000-acre Laikipia conservancy, with Jochen Zeitz's African art collection
The Privata Perspective
Segera is what happens when a collector builds a safari retreat: a handful of stilted timber-and-thatch villas rising from botanical gardens in the middle of a 50,000-acre Laikipia conservancy, threaded with works from founder Jochen Zeitz's contemporary African art collection. Views run to Mount Kenya, the wildlife runs to species the Mara rarely shows — Grevy's zebra, patas monkey — and the famous Nay Palad Bird Nest sleep-out is the single most romantic night in Kenya.
