Segera
Laikipia Plateau, Kenya, Africa
Kenya's Laikipia Plateau certainly isn't short of luxurious places to stay, but this six-strong camp of super-deluxe villas in the shadow of Mount Kenya sets the bar. With a 50,000-acre savannah sanctuary to explore, this is the place to come for game drives far from the madding crowd. When not being mesmerised by elephants, giraffes and other big game, you can hit the spa, admire African art or spend a night sleeping out under the stars.
Bouteco loves: Segera's ethos is a coming together of culture, community, conservation and commerce. That's no surprise: it was created by Jochen Zeitz who is the founder of the 4Cs, which are the foundation principles of the Long Run. Your stay supports projects as important and varied as beading cooperatives, solar farms, schools and East Africa's first academy for female anti-poaching rangers.
