Excellent, excellent location. One the only 3 lodges 'inside' the Mara!! Worth every bit! Including the slightly longer journey to reach the lodge. But this is as good as a game drive. Excellent game viewing - you can see huge herds of Wilderbeest & Zebra from the bar or your room. Great food, 'can do' attitude of the staff & unique rooms styles. A 'must go' place.

The hotel decoration is very nice  specially the bangalows have a stunning view overlooking the Mara.

The room decoration is great, but there is no ventilation except if you open the window. And we were advised to keep it closed cause the baboons can come in. The room has no Ac or ceiling fan and can get quite stuffy on hot days. However a portable fan was provided to us on request.


Food is ok and staff are friendly. Best thing about the hotel is the room views and deco.

An amazing property in the center of the reserve and worth every penny spent. Staff is very polite and eager to help and they really go out of the way to assist you. A perfect Hakuna Matata attitude. We stayed in Mara for 3 nights and enjoyed every bit of it.

When in Mara visit Mara Sarena.

What a location. On a cliff overlooking the Maasai Mara and the Mara River and the Great Migration. The pool area very nice with beautiful views. Loved their food and drinks poolside. The rooms kind of unique. But what is the creme de la creme were the game drives. Amazing wildlife. You can see the \herds of migration assembling near the river. That is to the time to gho down the mountain and enjoy the spectacle. One of the best of the natural world. Plan to come back again some day. Overall a once in a lifetime experience.
