Angama Mara

Angama Mara is a design-centric luxury safari lodge perched 300 m above the Maasai Mara, offering sweeping views, sumptuous tented suites, and bespoke safari experiences in a setting of minimalist elegance and authentic African hospitality

Angama Mara comprises two separate camps of 15 tented suites each, designed for intimacy and privacy. The architecture blends canvas, glass, and refined safari design, opening onto dramatic views of the Mara plains. Rich experiences like hot-air ballooning, guided wildlife drives in the private-access Mara Triangle, cultural immersion, wellness treatments, and the famed Out of Africa picnic are hallmarks of a stay here. Sustainability and community are central, with guest contributions supporting local education, healthcare, and conservation via the Angama Foundation

Dining

Dining at Angama Mara is as unforgettable as the views. 


Meals are crafted from the freshest seasonal produce, blending Kenyan flavours with international sophistication. 


Begin your day with breakfast served on your private deck, linger over multi-course dinners in the open-sided pavilion, or indulge in the legendary “Out of Africa” picnic on the very hill where the movie was filmed. 


Sundowners at the Boma bring Maasai storytelling alive by the fire, while the lodge’s wine cellar showcases curated South African vintages.

Facilities

Facilities include a rim-flow infinity pool seemingly spilling into the plains, a sun-drenched fitness room, a Maasai beading studio where you can create your own keepsake, and a photographic studio with professional equipment for guests. 


Every detail — from the fresh flowers in your suite to the warm, personalised service — reflects Angama’s philosophy that “the view is just the beginning.”

Rooms

Tented Suites (30 total) – Each exquisitely crafted tented suite seems to float above the savannah, with 10-metre wide floor-to-ceiling glass fronts framing endless Maasai Mara views. Step onto your private deck for sunrise coffee as hot-air balloons drift past. Inside, Maasai-inspired textiles meet contemporary elegance: polished parquet floors, deep soaking bathtubs, writing desks with uninterrupted views, and a bed positioned to make the horizon your morning wake-up call.
