The Details

Lodge

Angama Mara is strategically located on the Oloololo Escarpment, offering panoramic vistas of the Mara Triangle below. The lodge's architecture draws inspiration from the Maasai's red ochre homes, featuring red brickwork and expansive glass fronts that invite the surrounding landscape indoors. Guests can enjoy a range of activities, from guided walking safaris with Maasai naturalists to relaxing massages on private decks.

Tented Suites

Each of the 30 tented suites spans over 100 square meters and is designed to maximise the breathtaking views. The suites feature floor-to-ceiling glass fronts, polished parquet floors, and spacious wooden decks. Guests can indulge in in-tent dining, private massages, and the unique experience of a "red rocking chair safari," observing wildlife from the comfort of their deck.

Patty's tent
