Our take

About Angama Mara

Angama Mara is a spectacular luxury safari lodge perched high above Kenya’s Maasai Mara on the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, offering breathtaking panoramic views across the plains below. Overlooking the very landscapes where Out of Africa was filmed, the lodge combines dramatic scenery, elegant design and exceptional safari experiences in one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife destinations.

Drawing inspiration from Nairobi's iconic Muthaiga Club, our expansive bar, library, and relaxed seating area exude timeless elegance, romance, and allure. However, it's not merely about whisky decanters and tartan blankets—renowned South African stylist Annemarie Mentjies ensured a blend of sophistication and modernity. Amidst the gleaming glass walls and intricate brickwork, discover blood-red chairs, stylish French Fermob furniture and striking motifs. Completing the contemporary ambiance are a swimming pool and fitness room.

We recommend Angama Mara selectively according to season, routing, room availability and the experience offered by the other stops in your itinerary.
