it is a little away from the gamepark, but can reach in a few minutes, the power is off during the night, so it is pitch dark and you a few hours to charge your mobile and camera batteries, again in the morning there is power for a few hours, thats it. the breakfast was just OK. a masai tribe use to secure the premises in the right.

My partner and I spent 3 nights in the camp, and we wouldn’t have never come back again. The tent was too small for two people. The bed was horrible, not at all comfortable and concave with bed sheets, pillows and mattress in a very bad shape, old and dusty. The anti-mosquitos white second-skin was full of holes, therefore not at all efficient. The toilet was largely worse than the bed: inexistent or broken furnitures, decadent facilities, sometimes no hot water available. As for the service, definitely not adequate. No daily cleaning service available. The manager seemed to neglect both clients’ needs and the overall quality of the place which look quite abandoned to inertia. While the food does not vary from one day to another, it was at least mildly tasty. However, we reported a couple of rats playing in the restaurant, close to kitchen. All in all, seriously insufficient and not at all recommended.

Positiv: Close to the park entrance Friendly staff Delicious food Negative: The bathroom! We didn‘t have -a toilet seat -a toilet brush -a closeable door to seperate the bathroom/toilet from the rest of the tent So there was basically no privacy. Sidenote: If you ask a Masai for a tour through their nearby village, ask for the price first! They tried to charge us very high prices.

Went for the Masa Marai migration and it was one of the best experiences ever. Our guide through the safari was Peter and he was always ready to go that extra mile so that we could see maximum animals and the best possible action. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I could only make it a 3 day trip but Peter ensured that he packed the maximum possible into those 3days The tent which is provided for accommodation was much better than expected. Clean, sturdy and the little area for bathing and toilet activities was neatly done. The dining area was a separate tent and common for all guests. Each set of tours had their own cook with them, and sometimes, you could get paid a visit from the monkeys of the area while you're eating. If you are a wildlife enthusiast, this place is definitely worth a one-time visit. Honestly, I'd go again as well, the next time maybe make it a longer trip.

Great tents to stay in over the safari experience, food was great. Felt very authentic with being greeted by Masai members. Couple of issues with our bathroom & the electric generator was very loud but better then no electricity nonetheless.
