This safari lodge was -admittedly- much better than we had imagined. There were water buffalos, baboons, impalas etc always nearby and near the hotel rooms, the game drives were out of this world; giraffes, lions, cheetahs, gazelles, etc etc abundant everytime we ventured out, the beds and room were clean and very comfortable, and there was always hot water available,...

Great location in Masai Mara on top of a hill. Rooms done in unique and vibrant African flavor. Great food and good game watching. Staff is polite and friendly. The greatest fun was resting in bed and watching herds of elephants or wild buffaloes grazing in the grasslands. Nice splash pool to relax after the safaris. Proximity to Mara river... More

Very good location in Masai Mara. It is at the top of a hill where you get great view of the never ending meadows. Very close to Mara river where migration happens. We got connected rooms near dining area. Food is very good and service is nice. Free Wi-Fi is available in the room.

The lodge is on top of a hill with sweeping views of the Savannah. Probably one of the best locations to stay in during the annual wilderbeest migration. The plains are flooded with wilderbeest. It also overlooks the Mara river and is close to two wilderbeest river crossing spots. while the rooms are not big they are comfortable with amazing... More
