Best Luxury Camps in Masai Mara - Our Top 13 Picks
The Mara is charming and captivating, whatever the weather. This charm comes from its diverse list of all-inclusive safari lodges.
Next, we review the 12 best luxury camps in Masai Mara.
Masai Mara All-Inclusive Safari Camp #1 - Mara Serena Camp
Somewhere amidst the famous Mara Triangle lies the queen of all other luxury Masai Mara safari camps and hotels.
A haven where gently rolling landscapes pour into sunburned grasslands. Where luxury reigns supreme.
Being the only Masai Mara hotel located in the Mara Triangle, the Mara Serena Camp gives the term ‘picturesque views’ a whole other meaning.
The vibe here is luxurious, and this, we suspect, has a lot to do with its 74 guest rooms, all of which come complete with uninterrupted views of the Mara, contemporary amenities, and state-of-the-art interiors.
You will love its savoury meals too, and the long list of activities it has planned out for guests.
Activities to do on an all-inclusive Masai Mara safari with a stay at the Mara Serena include bush dinners, sundowners, game drives and exciting walks.
Masai Mara Luxury Camp #2 - Ilkeliani Mara Camp
For most tourists, Kenya as a luxurious destination is, for the most part, an afterthought – the Ilkeliani Mara Camp helps change this narrative.
Life at this luxury camp in Masai Mara centres around a river glade where hundreds of Elephants gather to drink. But it has always been more than the wildlife with Ilkeliani.
All her 12 tents are the epitome of perfection, with each treating guests to breathtaking views of the Mara landscape and the dark figures roaming all around it.
There’s also a wide selection of viewing decks to scream about, tastefully designed interiors, contemporary amenities, picturesque viewpoints, and exceptional customer service.
Side note: the scenic views are unmatched spots for intimate dinners and lunches.
All-Inclusive Masai Mara Safari Camp #3 - Entim Mara Camp
This luxury Masai Mara hotel is sensational not just for its awe-inducing design but also for its closeness to the Mara River.
The ambience here leans more towards the pristine, otherworldly side, the resort outdoing itself with its effortless views of the Mara.
Seeing that it’s very close to the Mara River, you can count on getting the best views of the iconic Wildebeest Migration as well as the lush grasslands and reptiles native to the river.
But it’s not only the views you should look forward to here. Entim’s 12 luxury tents are a thing of beauty, each coming complete with impeccable interior décor, a private lounge, verandah and modern amenities.
You will also love the camp’s restaurant, bar, swimming pools, and customer service.
Activities on a luxury Masai Mara safari package with a stay at the Entim Mara include; game drives, bush dinners, lunches, breakfasts, walks, and sundowner.
Luxury Masai Mara Hotels #4 - Ashnil Mara Camp
As far as luxury lodges in Masai Mara go, we are suckers for the Ashnil Mara Camp, a gorgeous 50 luxury-tent wonder housed close to the Mara River.
True to form, this luxury Masai Mara hotel merges contemporary facilities with mind-blowing Mara views to create a haven even the harshest critics will love.
There are deluxe twin, deluxe double and deluxe triple rooms to rave about, a swimming pool, Michelin-starred restaurant, lounge bar, and exceptional customer service.
The Ashnil Mara Camp also offers intimate bush breakfasts, dinners and lunches, game drives and cocktails that never miss the mark.
All Inclusive Masai Mara Safari Camp #5 - Basecamp Masai Mara
We feel obliged to honour the Basecamp Masai Mara because each one of its amenities- mostly its seventeen double riverside tents – are works of art.
The camp lies on the banks of River Talek, a position that brings with it exceptional views of the Mara and an ambience beyond words.
The vibe here is immaculate, and the service the quickest, most efficient you’ll ever come across. But it gets even better.
Double tents come complete with king-sized or twin beds, fully-equipped bathrooms, an indoor and outdoor shower, and private decks with direct views of the Mara.
There’s everything to love about its family tents, like the two separate wings, each offering double beds and a shared bathroom area.
We would vote Basecamp as the best Masai Mara luxury safari camp for families.
Luxury Masai Mara Packages Hotel #6 - Little governor's Camp
A swell of 17 cosy luxurious tents surrounded by the loveliest sceneries ever, the LGC has undoubtedly solidified its position as one of the best luxury camps in Masai Mara.
