About the Hotel

Come to Africa to see the wilderness of ancient plains, where some of the world's most stunning animals roam, and find the equally unfettered luxury at the intimate and exclusive Royal Mara Safari Lodge. In Kenya's legendary Masai Mara, an area collectively owned by local Maasai tribes, wildlife is carefully protected and able to roam without fences or barriers. It is here that one can really see the power of untamed animals, from hippos to lions to giraffes and elephants, hunting and lounging and grazing. An experience that is unique and life-altering in itself, is made even more sublime by the impeccable service, romantic accommodations and breathtaking treks into the wild, provided by the Royal Mara.

Reviews for Royal Mara Safari Lodge

Best Safari Ever!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

The Royal Mara Lodge came highly recommended by many friends and it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived until departure we were taken care of by the wonderful staff. We had a great safari guide, waiter (for each meal) and security man to escort us when the hippos were out. Our 'tent' was amazing. We have traveled a lot and this was the nicest accommodations we've experienced . (the photos are accurate). We saw so many animals, enjoyed breakfast in the field on safari and had delicious meals at the lodge. Royal Mara is smaller and more intimate than many of the other camps and we loved that. We would stay here again

Utterly amazing

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

It was the most incredible experience, whilst at one with nature, utter luxury too. The location is unbelievable, literally on the bank of the Mara River full of hippos. They are a constant entertainment from your balcony-or even your bed or actually your bath too. At night you have to be escorted as there are hippos, and even lions and elephants roaming around. The rooms are beautiful The service is probably the best I’ve ever experienced. The game drives were fabulous, our Masai guide knew the land like the back of his hand. Always felt safe. The surprise sunset drinks in the middle of the savanna topped everything! Will absolutely return Thank you team

The finest in wilderness luxury - Best place in the Mara

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

An experience you will never forget. We visited for 2 nights with our family and friends and loved every second. The luxury tents are beautiful. Expansive and appointed with every luxury you can think of. You can view the hippos from your shower and the outdoor bathtub - hear them chatting and playing throughout the night. You literally feel like you are living in the African wilderness with the animals at your doorstep. Tony and Anna and all the staff treated us as royalty as soon as we arrived. Attentive to every need and accommodating any change in plans. Eric the chef prepared delicious meals. We were even treated to a special NYE celebration. Adored all the staff. The most wonderful retreat after a day of game driving. We found it very hard to leave and when we visit again, Royal Mara will be our first choice.

Excellent stay

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 months ago

One of the most spectacular built luxury Csmp just by the edge of the Mara River. Nestled with mixed reactions of what the Mara river concerns and nature... for your luxury Royal, is it. Both the staff and food is beyond expectations . The big game is just a stone throw away from the camp.

Beyond my dreams of the Maasai Mara

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

Royal Mara was exquisite! The rooms were fabulous, spacious, modern, and very well done. Having wifi in the rooms was also a major plus. The outdoor settings were attentive to the environment and being on the Mara River was breathtaking to say the least. The food was always cooked and served well. Tony and Frances and the entire staff were exceptional!!! This was by far the most luxurious stay and I want to go back again and again. The memories made here were momentous and it was such welcoming place to experience the best of the Maasai Mara. I cannot say enough good things about this place and it will forever bring a smile to my face and warmth to my heart for the time spent here. Thank you Tony and Frances for one of the best experiences and for everything you did to make our stay so memorable! Your help when we were departing was also above and beyond and Wade and I can't thank you enough!!!

This place is amazing. My "tent" if you want to call it that, was really a small lodge. The food is amazing. I heard that they lured away some of the best chefs in the Mara for the camp. And they are right in the middle of the game action. I know where I'm going back when I go again.
