Luxe Stay: Segera Retreat

Owned by German entrepreneur and international environmentalist, Jochen Zeitz, Segera Retreat was originally meant to be a private home but has since been turned into a luxurious eco-resort for the jet-setting elite. Located on 50,000 acres of preserved land, the resort is committed to conserve the landscape and its resources. Segura Retreat also observes a 4C philosophy of that brings together conservation, community, culture, and commerce and hopes to encourage businesses to act for a better future for the planet. Segera Retreat takes the first step in doing so by offering activities such as planting indigenous trees in the Wangary Maathai Memorial, riding with the Conservation Unit Rangers as they monitor, track and observe wildlife, engaging with the local community, and more.

There are only eight villas within the resort that will guarantee a truly immersive experience for guest. The six timber and thatch villas run on solar power and sustainably harvested water and are equipped with private viewing decks and outdoor hot tubs, while the Segera House, which accommodates four people, has a salt-water swimming pool. Guests at the Segera House will also have unlimited access to a vintage Landmcruise and Rolls-Royce. For a romantic getaway, the Villa Segera offers guests more privacy and consists of two wooden buildings, connected by a swing bridge with a private veranda, garden, and salt-water pool.

At Segera Retreat, a culture of wellness is also encouraged to nourish your mind, body, and soul. The Wellness Centre offers an array of opulent holistic treatments and therapies to rejuvenate your entire being. From resting in the Rasul Steam Tower to participating in yoga sessions, guests can have a full pampering session in the peace and beauty of the incredible surroundings.
