Ashnil Mara Camp
Ashnil Mara Camp marks a new chapter in luxury safari hospitality in the Maasai Mara National Reserve. Nestled at a prime spot on the Mara River, the camp has undergone a comprehensive transformation, reducing its inventory to 27 luxury tents (24 luxury tents and 3 family units). This bold repositioning creates an environment that is more exclusive, more spacious, and more personalised, supported by a significantly higher staff-to-guest ratio.
The new Luxury Tents have been designed with both elegance and comfort in mind, featuring hardwood flooring, stylish interiors, in-tent lounge areas, modern bathrooms, minibars, and WiFi, boasting a modern safari aesthetic that does not compromise on authenticity. Family tents provide additional space and flexibility for those travelling with children or in small groups.
Public areas have been completely re-envisioned to maximise flow and river views, with new guest amenities, including a photography studio (2026), private dining decks, yoga and meditation spaces (2026), a gym (2026), and a dramatic sunken fire pit. Starting in 2026, dining will be elevated to plated four-course dinners, offering guests a more refined and intimate culinary journey compared to traditional buffets.
As always, the camp’s location ensures unparalleled access to year-round game viewing. Now, with its contemporary upgrade, Ashnil Mara Camp combines wildlife immersion with refined luxury, making it an ideal choice for discerning travellers seeking value, exclusivity, and a heightened level of safari experience in 2026 and beyond.
Set along the Mara River in the heart of the Maasai Mara National Reserve, Ashnil Mara Camp reopened in 2025 with a bold redesign and repositioning. The camp now offers just 27 luxury tents (including 3 family units), creating a more intimate, personalised safari experience. Each tent is newly rebuilt with hardwood flooring, elegant interiors, dedicated lounge areas, fully modernised bathrooms, minibars, and in-tent WiFi as standard.
The public areas have also been completely reimagined, offering greater space, river views, and a more exclusive ambiance. Beginning in 2026, guests can enjoy plated four-course dinners, private dining decks by the river, a yoga and meditation deck, a photography studio, a gym, and a sunken fire pit for evenings under the stars.
With exceptional game viewing year-round, Ashnil Mara Camp’s relaunch raises the bar for comfort, service, and atmosphere in the Maasai Mara, representing exceptional value at the new 2026 rates.
