I don't think a 10/10 review could do this place justice. The staff were on point and every need was catered for. The location was incredible with wildlife literally on your doorstep, or in the case of the monkeys, inside the camp! The guides were fantastic. All of the food was beautifully prepared and nothing went unnoticed. We had an amazing stay here and our only regret was not staying longer.

Great location, peaceful surroundings, good meals, friendly staff. The tents also have almost all comfort one could wish. Turn down service also puts hot water bottles in the beds, so even at night it stays comfortable.

Excellent location just at the Talek gate! It was really convenient to return for a lunch from safari and then return back. The outdoor facilities are very nice and stylish, same as the tents: spacious, well, equipped, and tastefully designed. Food was delicious, a take away breakfast- excellent! A thumbs up for hospitality and communication! Thank you Sandra, for being so helpful, flexible and ready to answer all possible questions, arrange transfers and safari. Our special thanks go to safari guide Dennis. He’s the definitely the best!!!

Amazing place, can lay in bed at night listening to the lions hippos and hyena. We were given one of the luxury tents which were great, but the only downside is there was construction taking place around as they upgraded the surrounding tents (Feb 25) these will all be ready by the high season. We downgraded to the more simple tents which enabled us to hear the surrounding wildlife (there was a generator that was on until 11pm which masked the sound). The food was really good and service from the staff excellent. We were on a self drive and hired a ranger the first day, he wasn’t the best. The following day we booked a hand drive with the hotel and our guide Damsun was amazing, we saw leopards lions and all the other game. I would highly recommend this place!!

    I had a great stay at the camp. At the time, I was the only tourist staying there and the staff were very solicitous, friendly and helpful. Food was really good and, of course, the safari - organised at the spot by the camp, was a wonderful experience. I would definitely recommend.

    We stayed in this lodge with my sister. The man at the reception was so kind - he upgraded us to the room with a view over the river and that completely changed the whole experience: being so close to hippos was absolutely wonderful. We could hear them at night even, magical! And at night we also saw elephants and giraffes coming to the river, literally at the gate of the camp - it was splendid. Excellent location for a safari in Masai Mara.

    Staff were incredibly friendly, especially the girls in the restaurant. And the two cooks too. Great food and plenty of it as well. Easy to take a breakfast or a lunch with you if wanna leave for an early or a whole day safari. We made reservations for a room, but got offered a tent, which we gladly took as the room looked not as comfy as the tent (warm, small windows without insectscreens). Hippos, crocs and kingfishers in river next to lodge. Even an elephant dropped by. Definetely worth a stay.

    We stayed at Mara Intrepids for a couple of nights before heading on to another lodge. Samson, our safari guide was EXCEPTIONAL. He made the start of our trip wonderful! Also, the service provided by Kenneth and team at meal times was exemplary.

    We had an amazing stay at Greenwood. Price quality is excellent and I really would not have changed it for a 600 euro a night lodge! Magdy is a super nice person, gave us a free tent upgrade and helped us with everything (safari, balloon flight, rides to Nairobi). The tents are good and the whole camping looks really nice, you can relax in the hammocks, take a swim in the pool and go for a small walk to the river (where you also have amazing sunsets).

    This was a fantastic place to go on safari in the Masai Mara. It was a beautiful location, surrounded by animals, many of which wandered the camp at night. The game drives were very good, lots of information given. We saw everything we wanted to see. The tents are well equipped and comfortable. We had the farthest one away from the lodge but never felt worried or scared by the animals roaming around.
