Amazing staff, incredible hospitality and attention to detail. Sheilla as a waiter and Dennis as a driver were simply amazing. recommend you ask for a room overlooking the river. We were able to change and that’s why the trip was so great, first we had one in the bushes. now we were woken up by hippos in the morning 😅 Beautiful place and and the best safari I have experienced (been to Naivasha Amboaei and Serengeti before)

Peal mara was excellent! super friendly staff, responsive, polite, helpful. The tent was luxurious, clean, comfortable, safe! There were people walking us back and forth in case wildlife appears in the way. Sunset and sunset views were also top. The people working there are always available to accommodate your every need. The whole place is built in respect to the surrounding nature. The safari driver, Sietoti, and Rachel, a trainee, were experienced and educated, and was able to identify every corner of Maasai Mara and provide rich information about nature and wildlife during our daily safari game drives. A truly amazing duo who made our trip unforgettable. They really took care of us. Also, the food was delicious, chef was excellent! I would definitely go back again!

Remarkable three days at Kobe Mara. Even though we arrived by car late at night and during a storm, we were warmly welcomed with dinner and blankets. The tent was clean and comfortable, and camp location was excellent. With only 4 tents and 1 large house spaced out from each other, no fences and no other camps around, it is so peaceful (apart from the animals of course!) and a perfect escape from city life. We recommend booking game drives via the camp too - our guide Nickson was incredible and we saw all the animals we had hoped to find. Kobe Mara staff did a fantastic job and everyone was so friendly and kind. As a bonus, we were treated to a group dinner as all guests were departing on the same day, featuring a Maasai celebration. A special thanks to our waiter Jonathan and the manager Sammy for everything :)

We visited this place with my husband and six of our friends. It was our first experience in Kenya and I must say it was absolutely excellent. We got a little lost on the way to Masai Mara and the helpful owner navigated us online the whole time and also picked us up for the final few kilometers to our accommodation. The last two kilometres are on a really bumpy road but can be done by jeep and even by car. All the time everyone was nice, friendly and gave us their utmost attention. The accommodation was great - we always had hot water in the shower, everything was beautifully clean. And the food... We enjoyed everything the local chef cooked, there was a huge choice and no one left hungry. They looked after us like we were their own. On the penultimate day they had a surprise for us in the form of dancing masai and it was a wonderful experience. Plus, my friends and I enjoyed swimming in the pool in the evening, which was awesome, especially after each day we were on safari. By the way, the entrance to the park is just a few minutes away from our accommodation. I am reviewing from the perspective of a traveler who has visited over 80 countries, we are not looking for luxury and five stars hotel, I like nice and relaxed accommodation and people. Thank you for all this 🙏

First off, the staff at this hotel are exceptional, everyone you meet is happy, positive and goes above and beyond your expectations of quality service. The club room option, while a bit expensive, is an incredible experience. There is access to a members only lounge and swimming pool, so you are guaranteed a quiet, relaxed space to enjoy food and drinks. We practically had the place to ourselves, including the chef. The food was fantastic and varied daily, prepared by the excellent chef Steven and his assistant Daglas, who are both absolute gentlemen. The service we got was so good, we made a list of names of the staff who made our stay most memorable. Doreen, Caroline, Andy and Alex running the lounge were always on hand, with a drink, for a chat, a laugh and to share some local knowledge with us, they made every meal time a joy. Jack looked after our room and was on call at any moment to get us whatever we needed, he is an extremely nice, friendly person and a great ambassador for the Sarova brand. Veronica doing entertainment and games is full of positive energy and always greets you with a big smile, creating a lovely, fun atmosphere around the place. Upon arrival, we were met by the wonderful Ruth, who can organise and fix anything for the guests,, she is an amazing person and really enhanced the experience of our visit. And last but not least our guide for the game drive, Daniel, being a Masai he has great knowledge of Masai Mara, where best to see the big 5, and all the other incredible animals and birds, we had an amazing time with him as our guide. I honestly can't speak more highly about the place and all the staff we met were amazing, just the list above are the people who we spent the most time with. There's a nice, relaxed, happy atmosphere to the place with a genuine commitment by everyone to ensure you have the most amazing experience possible. We will 100% be back!

everything it’s absolutely beautiful, the hotel , location, staff are amazing, super friendly and nothing is a bother. we arrived late day one (our own fault) and on leaving they had a packed lunch ready for us to take as they said we had missed one of our lunches! if your looking for a authentic stay inside the Masai Mara park with the most fantastic setting wrapped around you then 100% recommend the Ashnil. we were a family of 5 - all adults and everyone adored it. lovely big swimming pool with sun lounge area ..

We were so happy to book Jambo Mara Safari lodge the way last minute since our previous booking fell through. The staff were amazing and accommodating. The rooms were exceptionally clean and very comfortable. I highly recommend Jambo Mara Safari lodge and would stay again if going to Masai Mara. The food was great too!

The views from all the property, including directly from the room balcony, are fantastic. Common places of the site are also very attractive. Buffet meals very good, same as personnel, very well trained to deal with guests. The area is excellent for game viewing, you hear lion and hyena roaring at night. Very good sightings just out of the gate.

The setting was great. Travelling from Nairobi to the lodge was good. Some potholes in the road slowed us down a bit. Once at the lodge, the hospitality was welcoming and friendly. The facilities are very good. All the meals were excellent. The chefs prepared Indian meals good variety. Oliver was so helpful. He went above and beyond to assist.

The stay was very good. The tent was new and also the furnitures. The bed was found very comfortable and wide, we slept all nights long except when we woke up and heard the wild animals. The staff made everything to make us feel like home and they were excellent. The lodge is situated just 1 minute from the gate to the Mara. We can strongly recommend this tented camp! Lina and Martin

Osero Lodge is a beautiful base for an incredible trip to the Masai Mara. If you get a chance to go on safari then DO IT! It's life changing. The staff are so kind and attentive and the masai guards escorting you to your tent is so comforting when you feel like you are out of your comfort zone.

The location was amazing. We were looking for a lodge with incredible views and we weren't disappointed! The attention and food were excellent. We enjoyed the pool and our time at the lodge and in the conservation. We really appreciated the intimacy of the environment with the limited number of rooms and overall setup.

Very warm and kind people manning the Camp, from housekeepers to Reception. Excellent spread and sumptuous Breakfast. Superb people running the show in Dining Area, even interns were full of Enthusiasm. Well maintained Swimming pool and overall a superb camouflaged accommodation in midst of vast wilderness. Amazing sitout at Bar, splendid evening show, awesome Mini Club to wind down in evening from Club Tent, Their team hasn't left any stone unturned to make it more memorable than Safari as well.

Great tents with showers, electricity and verandas, attentive staff, great value for money, location very close to the park, camp fire and local traditions, and, most importantly, amazing salaries! It is a mid-range camp that provides you a wonderful opportunity to have great game drives with wonderful guides, sleep comfortably and spend reasonable money. Safari tourism can be extremely expensive but thanks to Drunken Elephant we were able to see the best of Maasai Mara, be comfortable and not spend a fortune.
