A Cliff-Top Camp Above the Maasai Mara

Perched 1,000 feet up the Oloololo Escarpment above the Maasai Mara, Angama Mara is a tented camp of 30 glass-fronted suites in two camps, with all-inclusive dining, a rim-flow pool and game drives into the Mara Triangle.

Suspended in mid-air above the plains

Angama Mara is perched on the Oloololo Escarpment 1,000 feet above the Maasai Mara plains, its name meaning suspended in mid-air in Swahili, on a 700-hectare site bordering the Mara Triangle with a private road into the reserve, reached by a 45-minute flight from Nairobi to its own airfield.

It has 30 en-suite tented suites arranged as two identical camps of 15, each over 100 square metres with an 11-metre glass frontage, some interconnecting for families. Dining is all-inclusive, from meals on the baraza with valley views to a lantern-lit Forest BBQ, long lunches at the Shamba kitchen garden and a sundowner boma with a Maasai performance. Wellness is in-tent and on the deck, with a 12-metre rim-flow pool over the Mara and a Technogym fitness room. Experiences run from game drives and hot-air ballooning to walking safaris, beading with Maasai mamas and photography tutorials, with an Out of Africa picnic. Part of Angama, it suits honeymooners, families, photographers and design-conscious safari-goers who want dramatic views and a flagship Mara lodge.

A note on experience

This suits you if you want dramatic views and a flagship Mara lodge. Take a glass-fronted tented suite suspended above the plains, head into the Mara Triangle on game drives, and rise early for a hot-air balloon. Dine at the Forest BBQ, swim in the rim-flow pool over the Mara, and bead with Maasai mamas. It is spectacular and design-led. Good for honeymooners, families and photographers.
