Basecamp Mara Houses

Location: Basecamp Mara Houses are located in a stunning and secluded area, the Mara North Conservancy, just outside the Masai Mara National Reserve, offering guests unparalleled access to one of the worlds most spectacular wildlife destinations. Surrounded by vast savannahs and rich biodiversity, the houses are ideally situated for both game viewing and cultural encounters. The location strikes a perfect balance - far enough to offer peace and privacy, yet close enough to ensure easy access to daily safari adventures.

Rooms: Each of the Basecamp Mara Houses is thoughtfully designed to blend traditional Maasai aesthetics with modern comfort. The houses feature spacious bedrooms, private verandas overlooking the bush, and en-suite bathrooms with hot showers. Earthy tones, handcrafted furniture, and locally inspired decor create a warm and inviting atmosphere, making them ideal for couples, families, or small groups seeking a personalised safari experience.

Activities: Guests at Basecamp Mara Houses can enjoy a range of curated activities that bring them closer to the wildlife, people, and landscapes of the Mara. Shared day and night game drives offer a chance to witness a wide range of game (including lots of big cats). Guided walking safaris provide a more intimate encounter with the environment. Cultural visits to nearby Maasai villages, storytelling sessions by the campfire, and birdwatching outings further enrich the experience.

Amenities: Despite their remote setting, the Mara Houses come equipped with a variety of amenities to ensure comfort and convenience. These include solar-powered electricity, eco-friendly toiletries, a personal chef preparing fresh, locally sourced meals, and attentive housekeeping. A dedicated guide and safari vehicle are also included with each house, offering guests the freedom to tailor their daily schedule to their interests.

Sustainability: Sustainability is at the heart of everything that they do. Built using locally sourced materials and designed to minimise environmental impact, the houses operate on solar power and support low-waste principles. By staying here, guests directly contribute to conservation efforts and community empowerment, including initiatives focused on reforestation, education, and the support of the local Maasai women through helping them sell their artefacts through the .
