ケニアナロクで、朝食のあるホテル

I booked this amazing Mara resort on my own (after getting scammed by a Nairobi safari agency which disappeared). If you want to experience the famous Mara game drives, but don’t want to “rough it out in the tents”, this resort offers familiar 5-star luxury hotel-style rooms (fully enclosed with floor-to-ceiling windows), right along the famous Mara River. I woke up to sounds of hippo frolicking in the river, I was well fed with made-to-order meals, and even surprised with a romantic riverside candlelight dinner, and a bush sundowner. As I visited the resort during June before the peak safari season, I basically had the whole resort to myself. My safari driver Lucas was amazing and kept in constant contact with his driver friends to obtain latest information about wildlife sightings, and I had to the great fortune of seeing all the big 5 animals, including the endangered rhino. As mentioned before, I booked this resort on my own, so I contacted Helen from reservations, and she sorted out my private airport pickup from Nairobi Airport (US$270 per trip), as well as to provide food allergy information. The nearest airstrip to the resort is Keekorok Airport (about 45 mins drive), and if you book the all-inclusive package, airstrip transfers to Keekorok is included as well. In summary, if you want to experience a true 5-star luxury Mara safari (at a small fraction of the Ritz/JW), Pristine Mara Bay Lodge is no doubt my absolute recommendation. I cannot repeat this enough, Pristine Mara Bay Lodge was the most wonderful safari experience for me, and please come with small USD bills to tip the absolutely amazing staff, nothing seemed too difficult for them, and they will greatly appreciate it.

I stayed at Fig Tree Camp for 5 days in February with my son and his family. We were looked after extremely well for our whole stay. We were picked up at the airport strip by Julius, our driver, and our guide, also called Julius! Made remembering names more easily! We were taken on safari immediately and saw lions and giraffes before heading to the camp. We were met with cool drinks and cloths before giving our details to the wonderful receptionist, Sheila. We were shown our tents, overlooking a bend in the river, where we were able to see (and hear) hippopotamus and their babies. We took a balloon trip, arriving just before dawn and we rose into the air as the sun rose over the land. It was a magical experience and Thom, our captain, was very knowledgeable about the animals we saw. Once we had landed, we were driven for our amazing champagne breakfast before being whisked off on safari again. Our driver and guide were very good and found out where the animals were, we were lucky enough to see a leopard - one of the 50 in the park. We were also amazed to find ourselves in the middle of a herd of elephants and babies, who moved so quietly for all their bulk. We were also in the right place to watch hunting lionesses, even though they didn't make a kill that time. Every time we went out, we saw amazing animals in their habitat. We also had 2 picnic meals in the bush, it felt quite bizarre to be able to sit outside to eat in a place where lions, elephants and cheetahs roamed. I can recommend Fig Tree Camp and the great staff there. If you are thinking of visiting the Massai Mara, head for Fig Tree Camp!

We absolutely loved this camp! The double tent is well equipped and beautifully decorated. The staff were all amazing! Each night, our bed had hot water bottles in it, making it so cozy and warm. Early morning wake-up calls included coffee and milk delivered to the room. From the time we arrived to the time we left, we felt pampered. Big shout out to our safari guide Samson and his intern Felix. Samson knew exactly where to go to find the wildlife and explained everything to us, from the animal feces to their mating rituals. We could not have had a better guide. Another shout out to Daisy and Duncan at reception, Dinah in the restaurant, Marc the conservationist, John who delivered our wake up calls, Loisiana in the restaurant, Debbie who told us so much about Masai culture, and Robert the Masai village chief’s son. Also, Ben who assisted us with getting to the hot air balloon safari. Make time to visit the village to learn about the culture, be patient and kind to everyone, especially your safari guide, and be sure to tip! They deserve it! The location is perfect, the bed is comfortable, and can’t say enough about the staff! Definitely highly recommended!

この宿泊施設に6つ星を追加する機会があれば、喜んでやります。スタッフはとても親切で親切です..キャサリンとチャールズははるかに素晴らしく、とても歓迎してくれました。私たちはオーナーに会う機会があり、彼らは私たちの滞在を素晴らしいものにするために最善を尽くしたので、彼らはとても親切で寛大です(彼らは私たちを家にいるように感じさせました)。食べ物は素晴らしいです、おそらく彼らはこの地域で最高のシェフの1人を持っています..キャンプ全体がとてもエレガントで、とても芸術的な方法で行われています。そこの木の細部にまで気付くでしょう(木の愛好家はこのキャンプが好きです)。最後まで最高を保ち、ツアーガイドのアントニーは最高でした(ゲームドライブのために彼に尋ねてください、彼はおそらくマラ全体で最高です).. このキャンプを予約することを後悔することはありません!

抜群!!カスタマーサービスは素晴らしかった。私たちが淡水で掃除する部屋。私たちはとても安全だと感じました。私はすべてに滞在することをお勧めします。食べ物が美味しかったので食事はきれいです。スタッフはゲストにとても気配りがありました。

ホテルの場所はとても良く、環境はとても良く、マサイマラデルタを見下ろす景色は開放的です。朝食の種類は非常に豊富で、子供たちを遊ばせるのにも良い選択です。

Fantastic location and friendly staff. Excellent helpful staff and a great all inclusive meal choice. Would highly recommend as it’s close to the Sekenani gate of the Maasai Mara game park. Thank you everyone for a fantastic stay.👍

Great tent, amazing location by mara river. You can hear hippos grunting throughout night. The morning are beautiful with birds chirping all around. They also had the option for night safari which was an amazing experience.

Хороший сервис. Приятное место. Еда вкусная. По запросу приносят холодильник

友人の勧めでこのホテルを選んだのですが、期待以上に素晴らしかったです。 実はこのホテルは中国資本のホテルで、創業から10年以上経っています。宿泊体験は価格以上の価値がありました。朝食、昼食、夕食に提供されるお粥と漬物は、心遣いが感じられました。 各部屋には専用バルコニーと庭があり、床は新しい木製です。評価があまり高くないのが不思議です。中国人の経営陣に尋ねたところ、パンデミックの影響で数年間中国人スタッフが訪れていなかったとのことでした。レビューは主に***********に投稿された外国人宿泊客によるものです。中国人チームが戻ってきてからは、浄水システムや太陽光発電設備、客室設備のアップグレードに数百万ドルを投資したそうです。来年には客室Wi-Fiも利用できるようになるとのことです。 特におすすめなのは、焼き肉料理が豊富な夜のビュッフェです。種類も豊富で美味しい料理が楽しめます。スタッフは温かくフレンドリーで、中国人宿泊客をまるで王族のように扱ってくれます。 立地も良く、マサイマラ国立公園の入り口から2キロ圏内という便利な場所にあります。以前、国立公園内のホテルを探したのですが、値段が高す​​ぎたのと、インド人経営のホテルはあまり評判が良くないと聞いていたので諦めました。 なので、一人旅を計画されている方には、このホテルを強くお勧めします。キリマンジャロの麓にも姉妹ホテルがあると聞いたので、次回はそちらもチェックしてみようと思っています。
