Warmth and Hospitality
Our reputation for warmth and hospitality is not just a promise, it is a trademark of our service. Whether you are dining under the stars in our outdoor spaces, enjoying a private dinner at our boma, or partaking in a bush breakfast or sundowner, our Team is dedicated to creating memorable moments.
A Venue for Unique Experiences
We take pride in our versatile outdoor dining venues, perfect for a romantic dinner or a celebratory event. Our bush breakfasts, boma dinners and sundowners offer a unique opportunity to experience the Mara's natural beauty while enjoying a delicious meal.
Commitment to Community and Sustainability
Our commitment extends beyond our guests to the community and environment. We support Oloolaimutia Primary School through material donations and teacher sponsorships, and contribute to menstrual health initiatives through our sustainability arm – Land and Life Foundation, providing reusable sanitary kits to ensure that girls in Oloolaimutia can attend school with dignity. We also support Maasai women by providing market space and economic opportunities, and foster local economic development by creating jobs within our Lodge.
In harmony with nature, our Lodge is home to a resident zebra family, baboons, vervet monkeys, and dik diks. Our scenic location offers stunning views of Emboo Valley, the rolling Ngama and Lenganishu hills, surrounded by the unspoilt nature and indigenous trees like the black bark acacias and wild olive.
Architectural and Cultural Richness
Our Lodge’s design of round huts and conical roofs is a tribute to the rich Maasai culture, seamlessly integrating traditional aesthetics with modern comfort. Cultural experiences are at the heart of our offerings, from immersive walks to the Manyatta villages to lively Maasai dance performances that enrich our guest’s stay.
Environmental Stewardship
Environmental sustainability is a core value. We collaborate with local Maasai guides for environmental clean-ups and tree planting initiatives, champion eco-friendly sanitary products, and practice waste reduction and recycling, including the harvest of used cooking oil for renewable energy.
Organic Garden
Our commitment to health and sustainability is reflected in our organic garden, where we cultivate a variety of vegetables and herbs without artificial inputs, promoting a healthy lifestyle.
