This feels really mean but we were quite disappionted with a lot of aspects of this venue. On the positive side - the game drives/guide were amazing & the food was delicious. Generally the staff were very accommodating too. We weren't however expecting to need binoculars to spot a tiny bit of river far far off in the distance. The... more

Mara Serena is an amazing property. It is located at the heart of the Masai Mara and right next to the Mara River. The hotel is on a hilltop and all the rooms are perched on 2 ridges (going in opposite directions) so all rooms have a view down the hill to the Savannah below. From your room you can... more

The Mara Serena lodge is located in a truly beautiful spot over looking the Savannah. The rooms are small but clean and all offer good views. The food is wonderful and the staff are really friendly. I wanted to spend more time here. more

We have been to this lodge now about 6 times.

Wow .. what a great lodge!! We had the time of our lives staying here in December. The view from the rooms is excellent, you can see the vast African plains and with a binocular spot lots of animals right from the room. The decoration in the rooms also has a lot of character and is tastefully done. The driver/guide... more

A group of us were doing humanitarian work in Liberia and had to take a flight through Kenya. We decided to take advantage of this and stopped for a 4 day safari. We booked through SHoor Travel (found them on line) and loved every thing about the tour. The drivers picked us up at the airport in Nairobi and took... more

We have just returned from our first visit to Kenya (25th wedding celebration) and to the Serena Lodge / Hotel chain. This is an amazing place, the vista, staff, service, food, accomodation could not be faulted. We flew from Wilson airport in Nairobi after staying for a day & overnight after flight from UK. Would strongly recommend flying as starting... more
