The Lodge

Sand River Camp

Designed to reflect the heyday of safari travel in the 1920s, the Sand River Camp is a unique accommodation within the Masai Mara National Reserve. It is named after the meandering waterway that can be viewed from its tented suites and is renowned for its exceptional game viewing throughout the year. Each of the tented suites features its own dining space for an exclusive stay.

The Sand River Camp forms part of the Elawana Collection, which has garnered a reputation for its outstanding hospitality and gourmet dining experiences. In addition to thrilling game drives, you’ll be treated to guided bush walks and night drives to spot the area’s high concentration of predatory cats. The Sand River Camp boasts an enviable setting for watching the wildebeest and zebra herds pass by on the Great Migration.

What we love about the Sand River Camp

• Exceptional setting for viewing the Great Migration between June and October

• A high concentration of big cats, including leopards, lions and cheetahs

• Spacious tented accommodations with private dining and lounging areas
