About

Extremely impressive genuine hospitality and professionalism where the manager genuinely loves his job and has great experience. Very high-end lodge in a conservancy with less than 10 cottages and personalized service. Good hospitality next to the Mara with everything spot-on. Unbelievable Christmas stays.

    Stayed there with my family in August of 2018. We were extremely impressed at the genuine hospitality and professionalism of the staff. The manager genuinely loves, and is experienced at his profession, and this is reflected in the quality of service we enjoyed. The chef does an excellent job as well, and the food was memorable! The game drives were lots of fun, and our guide knowledgeable and v.personable.

    The Ngerende Island Lodge is amazing place. Am encouraging every visitor who would like to visit Masai Mara game reserve to stay over there. The hospitality is good and also the lodge is next to the Mara River where visitors are able to see the hippopotamus and the crocodiles as they swim in the swimming pool. I loved the place. Congrats Ngerende Island Lodge.

    Spent Christmas 2016 here. Unbelievable! Everything was spot on. This is a very high end lodge located in a conservancy in the Mara. It has less than 10 cottages with personalised service. They overlook the river Mara. Game drives are included in the package as well as all drinks and meals. The staff is amazingly pleasant and genuinely warm and professional. The resident chef will make you anything you want if it is available. The lodge is located 10 minutes drive from Ngerende Airstrip which is served by many small aircraft services from Nairobi. Memorable... Memorable... Memorable... Note: the place is pricey but well worth it!
