ExcellentBased on 37 reviewsEhsen H30/10/2024My wife and I decided to go to Maasai Mara for our honeymoon! My wife and I decided to go to Maasai Mara for our honeymoon. I decided to book the Mara Legends Camp based on a recommendation from a friend. I have no words about my stay. It was beyond perfect. My wife and I loved every second of being there!! The camp team really did an AMAZING job! From the second we arrived, the experience was just impeccable. I will be honest, it was beyond my expectation. I did not expect the team to be so professional, and yet so personal. Even though there were other guests staying at the camp, my wife and I felt like we were the only people there. Edgar and George went above and beyond to make our stay extra special by arranging things like evening entertainment to a private romantic dinner by the river. They really did more than I could have asked for. The food was something out of a 5 star hotel. Jimmy did an amazing job as each dish (steaks, beef stroganoff, pasta, etc) was made to perfection. And of course Jon and Jonathan, our park guides, were also amazing and thanks to them we got to see ALL the animals in the park 🙏🦁 As a bonus we also got Joseph who was a guitarist and a professional photographer to take some professional photographs of us in the park! :))) Thank you Florence and everyone for such a memorable experience that we will never forget! We haven't been able to stop talking about it with all our friends :)) Rooms The tent was very comfortable, right by the river! Private bathroom and shower with warm water and great water pressure! The evenings were chilly however, they provided warm rubber water thermal bottles which kept us warm during the night. Nearby activities Evening entertainment consisted of dinner, and live music by the bonfire, followed by light lounge music at the bar with drinks. Safety We felt very safe throughout our stay, there were plenty of staff throughout the day and night to make us feel comfortable! Walkability All areas of the camp are within walking distance! Max 1 min walk from the tents to the reception, bar, restaurant, breakfast area, etc. Food and drinks Food and drinks were absolutely amazing and of very high quality! Noteworthy details Ask and they will accommodate your every request! The team really will try their utmost best to give you the best experience ever. Hotel highlights Great view, Romantic, Quiet, Great valuePrasad Jonnavithula28/10/2024Fantastic Experience Enjoyed the stay, hospitality of the professional staff. We visited Mara from 19th to 21st October and the staff made sure that our stay is comfortable in every aspect. Chef Jimmy was exceptional in providing us with great options for the meal and which is truly delicious too. Though felt it was quite bit inside but on the banks of Talek river, with Hippos making noise throughout the night made it memorable stay.HABS27/10/2024Exceptional service, delicious food for all diets, ideal location, thrilling safari experiences, unforgettable stay Our stay at Mara Serenity Lodge was nothing short of magical! From the moment we arrived, the incredibly warm and welcoming staff set the tone for an amazing experience. Service was exceptional—everyone went above and beyond, making us feel right at home and always greeting us with the warmest smiles. The food was a highlight of our trip! Every meal was crafted with care, offering a delicious variety for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians, so everyone felt catered to and satisfied. Our room was comfortable and perfectly situated, facing the river. Each morning, we awoke to the sounds of hippos, adding a uniquely thrilling touch to our mornings. The lodge’s location is ideal, with access to both sides of the reserve, making game drives a truly unforgettable adventure. We were lucky enough to witness two cheetah kills, follow a leopard on the hunt, and watch a thrilling attempt by four male lions—an experience that made us feel like we were in a wildlife documentary! Thank you to our guide Amos for this. Mara Serenity Lodge surpassed every expectation we had, and we’re already planning our return to this breathtaking place. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a truly immersive safari experience! A massive thank you to each and every staff member who made our trip so memorable.suhaib a25/10/2024Amazing camp in an excellent location and gives the real experience of being in the bush camping but with a luxury touch The food was amazing tailored to my needs .

Overall very happy and can't wait to come back.NCB16/10/2024What an amazing experience…🙌 There is so much to say about this incredible camp, that it is difficult to know where to begin. I’ll start with the location, which is perfect for reaching various parts within the reserve. The Ol Kiombo airstip is 5 minutes away from the camp if you choose to fly there. The camp is situated along the Olare Orok river. The tents as well as the outdoor dining and bar area face the river on a beautiful deck. This camp is under new ownership and what a great change it has been. They are in the process of updating the camp. So far the family tent is one of the best we have seen, the accommodation and location of this tent is spot on. The staff are ALL outstanding with their hospitality. They are always cheerful and willing to go the extra mile. Well done to you all, keep it up. Their guides are some of the best, and their knowledge of the reserve and its wildlife is remarkable. You will not be disappointed. Jimmi the head chef and his team produce some of the most exquisite and sumptuous meals. The variety and presentation of each dish is delightful, and makes you want to tuck in immediately!!! Their menus cater for different pallets and dietary requirements. The new managers are doing a wonderful job in such a short period of time and I would without a doubt highly recommend this camp. This has now become one of our favourite camps and we look forward to returning very soon. “Ashe Oleng” which is Thank you very much in the local Maa language.Mitesh S15/10/2024Just the place to be One word that will sum it all up Uuuumph !!!

We were greeted at Wilson Airstrip with our private driver ( Ben ) who took us on Safari on the way to the camp. He immediately spotted a Cheatah that on the hunt and followed it to the catch and kill. He asked what my wife wanted to see the most and she said the 🐘. Ben said okay and made a right turn and there they were female elephants with their babies. We then arrived to the Serenity camp and was greeted buy our personal escort and guard ( James and Jackson) " jumbo ". James was excellent the total time at the camp we call him Mr No Problem because he always said no problem. The Tent if you want to call it a tent was more like a 5 🌟 hotel room. Two double beds serene lighting glamorous bathroom to include hot shower and bottled water for teeth brushing and drinking. Every evening we had bed turn down service with a surprise hot water bottle tucked in to make sure your bed was warm. The game rides both day and evening were excellent all due to The knowledge and sighting of Ben. Ben was able to spot the animals and get to them before any others. Again he asked what we wanted to see and wife said Giraffe. He said they were rare but as he turned around there they were. We even were able to see a rare sighting of a Leapard climbing a tree to eat his prey. Then it was lunch time ... James took us to the outdoor dining where we had a great view of river and the family's of hippopotamus resting below. We expected camp food. We were surprised at the 5 star meal and service from Mike. He was attentive as were all the staff. Every meal was outstanding even the packed lunch for the breakfast for the safari.Rinkyrinx14/09/2024Serenity Mara Camp is the best camp for Safari in Masai Mara 100% This camp was the highlight of our trip. The staff were incredible and the food was delicious and such a treat. The presentation and quality didn't feel like we were in a camp on safari. The Masai, are the loveliest and although they didn't speak much English. They made you feel safe. The tent was nothing like I expected, from a person who doesn't like to go camping it was very luxurious and I loved the 3 nights we spent there. Hot showers and all the amenities one requires and the WiFi was great too. We made friends with the staff and in particular had incredible service from George and Richard, who made our stay so comfortable. I highly recommend the Serenity Camp and look forward to going again someday.
