A buffet, à la carte or continental breakfast is available at the property. The rooms are beautifully decorated, the staff who take you on Safari are fantastic. Dominic somehow managed to secure us the BEST position out of about 50 cars to view the Wildbeast migration crossing. It was amazing.

Set in Masai Mara, Pearl Mara offers free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a fitness centre, a garden and a shared lounge.

There is a private bathroom with bidet in some units, along with free toiletries, a hairdryer and slippers.

The lodge offers a terrace. Peal mara was excellent! super friendly staff, responsive, polite, helpful. The tent was luxurious, clean, comfortable, safe! There were people walking us back and forth in case wildlife appears in the way. Sunset and sunset views were also top. The people working there are always available to accommodate your every need. The whole place is built in respect to the surrounding nature. The safari driver, Sietoti, and Rachel, a trainee, were experienced and educated, and was able to identify every corner of Maasai Mara and provide rich information about nature and wildlife during our daily safari game drives. A truly amazing duo who made our trip unforgettable. They really took care of us. Also, the food was delicious, chef was excellent! I would definitely go back again!

Situated in Sekenani, Mara Moon cottages features accommodation with free WiFi and a garden with a terrace and garden views.

Some units also have a kitchen equipped with a fridge, an oven, and a stovetop.

The lodge offers a barbecue. Great location, just 10 minutes from Sekenani Gate. The lodges are simple and basic but clean and have everything you need, surrounded by vegetation. The staff is kind, helpful, and always ready to assist. Dinner, breakfast, and the packed lunches were excellent. The chef was extremely careful with the dietary needs of some of my travel companions, who are celiac and lactose intolerant..

Olaloi Mara Camp has river views, free WiFi and free private parking, set in Masai Mara.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving African, American and Italian cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and halal options can also be requested. Im so glad that I found Olaloi, it was easily the best option for exploring Maasai Mara! The communication at the start of the trip was seamless with Jemimah. We were picked up by the nicest driver, Mwangi who shared with us a lot about Kenyan cultures. We then went out for game drive with Jonathan and saw so many amazing animals, he had amazing eyesight and could spot the animals in the instance. We loved the open vehicle that they had - it allows us to truly immerse in the experience with the surrounding nature and it looks very different from the other vehicles we saw in the park. Jonathan also took amazing photo for us too, thank you Jonathan! We were even having breakfast and lunch in beautiful locations in the savannah and by Mara river. We were the only guests at the place and they treated us so well. The food was amazing, we were so full at the end of the day. And somehow we all really love the milk, it tastes so different, cant tell why. Thank you to everyone that took great care of us, Githong - the manager, John - the cook, and other people that we are so sorry we didnt catch their names. We truly hope the business will grow better and they will welcome more guests to their place! Please support local business. We hope to be back again, thank you for the magical trip!

With river views, Emboo River Camp is set in Talek and has a restaurant, room service, bar, garden, year-round outdoor pool and terrace. Free WiFi is featured.

There is a private bathroom with shower in all units, along with free toiletries and bathrobes. From the very first moment, we were warmly welcomed by Valery and her amazing team. We stayed in a beautifully designed, cozy room (everything inside was chosen with care and filled with comfort) The atmosphere at Emboo is magical: peaceful nature, evenings around the fire on soft poufs under the stars, delicious meals, and a deep connection to the nature. We would especially like to thank: Felix, our safari guide — calm, deeply experienced, and one of the best in his field. He made every game drive feel personal and insightful. Tobin, the photographer, full of passion and soul. Every photo he took captured something deeper than just an image. Rhoda, who looked after us during every breakfast, lunch, and dinner with incredible kindness and attention. And Pedro, who always brought a smile, kindness, and genuine care. he made us feel truly welcomed. The little things made, like hot water bottles waiting in our room at night and even placed in the safari jeep for those chilly early drives. These thoughtful touches left a lasting impression. The entire team at Emboo is united by true hospitality, care for nature, and love for what they do. We’re already home, but our hearts are still with you at Emboo. Wishing the camp and its creators continued joy and prosperity

There is a private bathroom with shower in every unit, along with free toiletries, a hairdryer and slippers. Only the few people staying at the 2 properties can safari on the conservancy. Luckily I had the property to myself and was able to spend most of my time in the bush. The staff were awesome especially the safari guide.
