The Lodge

Mara Bushtops

Ultra luxurious and offering an exclusive safari experience, the Mara Bushtops is regularly hailed as one of the premier safari camps in Kenya. It boasts an incredible hilltop location overlooking a scenic valley on a private ranch that borders the Maasai Mara National Reserve.

With a private salt lick watched over by a 100-square-metre deck, the wildlife viewing is right on your doorstep and without the crowds often experienced in the Maasai Mara National Reserve. But just a short game drive away will see you in the heart of what is Kenya’s most famous reserve, renowned for its high concentrations of big game species and as the setting for the annual wildebeest migration.

You can end your days being pampered at the on-site spa, swimming in the starlight pool and perusing the well-stocked wine cellar before being treated to exceptional culinary experiences by some of East Africa’s top chefs. Described as a “five-star oasis”, this only touches on the indulgent atmosphere of Mara Bushtops in one of the world’s most exciting wildlife destinations.

Dining

Mara Bushtops’ dining experiences are second to none, with a highlight being the restaurant’s setting overlooking a salt lick. Watch as the animals come and go while you feast on sumptuous African fusion cuisine, then settle in beside the adjacent campfire to recount your day’s adventures with your fellow travellers. Private bush breakfasts can also be organised, with a decadent feast surrounded by the calls of the wild.

Mara Bushtops is renowned for its impressive wine cellar located beneath the restaurant where the bottles are kept in optimum climatic conditions. Browse the offerings from Kenya, South Africa and Europe’s most prestigious wine growing regions to accompany your meal, including gems sourced from privately-owned vineyards in Switzerland, France and Austria.
