  We chose this lodge over budget accomodation for our Masai Mara hotel, it was much pricey but it is worth it. We got glass cottages, the environment is nice. This was best cleanliness and best good we had on our 4 days safari. Room is always clean, towels nice. For breakfast they have fresh pancakes and nutella which was a big plus, and for dinner you have chef and live cooking station, one night we got to choose from variety of noodles and other pasta. On arrival we got juice and wet towels which was nice after a long drive. You can hear wild animals during night but we felt safe. Beautiful terrace in the room, wish we could stay longer. The only downside are maasai baggage handlers who take your bag even you say no thanks, and carry it 10m away to room and wait for tip, that annoyed me. Other than that, it was a perfect stay, but it should be like that for the amount of money you pay ;)

  This is an excellent safari lodge and highly recommended. I honestly can’t understand the negative reviews here. The rooms are very, very nice and impeccably clean, the property well kept and the food is nice (of course it’s no Michelin-star food but you can’t expect that in the middle of a rural area in a lodge). The staff very nice.

  We stayed 2 nights in this hotel while doing a safari trip. It was a very good surprise, the room were spacious and very clean, and the buffet was actually great and with decent variety of food. Staff is always helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for anyone passing by!

  This is a nice safari lodge to stay in with good facilities, decent food and convenient location near the Masai Mara National Park Ololamutia gate. The lodge has a swimming pool and gym. There is a huge dining hall for buffet style meals which are included with the room price. However you have to pay for tea and coffee which I think is kinda lame ( it’s just to make some extra money). They serve a wide array of food from cuisines from all over the world. I found their desserts lacking in taste but it was compensated by the wide array of fresh fruit that was available. They also have a chef onsite making fresh noodles, fried rice, pasta and omelettes to order which was nice. The food is plentiful and they don’t rush you. We stayed at the glass cottage which I had specifically requested ahead of time and it was provided to us just as promised. It is very safe to walk around any time of the day or night as there are Masai people all around the campus.There is a very strong expectation of tips for every little service provided. For those who are worried of mosquitos and bugs, there are none at this lodge. The rooms are well appointed as are the common areas. The only downside is that WiFi is available only in the reception area which makes communication with others hard.

  The hotel has a very nice design, and the outside area feels just like real nature, which makes it really relaxing. The rooms are cozy, comfortable, and very clean. The staff are kind and welcoming, and there’s also a pool to enjoy. The food was good, and the chef was especially nice and attentive. On the downside, the toilet doesn’t have a fan or window, which can be inconvenient, and the service in the restaurant is a bit slow. Overall, still a lovely place with a warm and natural atmosphere, but a few areas could be improved.
