Tripadvisor Reviews
Excellent hotel with great food and friendly staff. We spent two nights with a family and were really satisfied. For a full day of safari an individual lunchbox was packed for everyone. Cocktails at the bar were perhaps not recommendable, but it's just a tiny detail...
I cannot say how much we loved this property, mostly the staff, pleasant, kind, always a smile, attentive.We stayed here 2 nights so this gave us the opportunity to get to know the staff. Our friends had stayed here 2 months prior to us and they also loved it.My husband thought...
This place is a true gem. Somehow they were able to get a little luxury in the middle of the Masai Mara. The rooms are individual huts with all of the accommodations and very clean. The common areas were very classy and inviting. Enough cannot be said about the quality of food at this place...
