Top Sand River Gate Hotel Reviews

AA Lodge Masai Mara

10/10 Excellent

"Good property we’ve stayed at for years. Love everything but the food. Great place for the money and really close to the game park. We take a group of almost 30 people there every year."

Entumoto Safari Camp

10/10 Excellent

"What an amazing way to spend a couple of days in the Masai Mara, the team were super attentive and always willing to help - such a great team. The tents were of a good size and comfortable, - additionally we had a great view of the watering hole in the camp were we could watch animals freely roam to come for a drinking (elephants, zebra and impalas) Food was of good quality with a lot of ingredients from their garden (definitely recommend visiting if you have green fingers ) We had the best Safari guide with Berthwell, he was fantastic and so knowledgable - we got the big five within the first 2 hours, before a lovely bush breakfast! I would love to go back again and highly recommend Entumoto Safari Camp to anyone visiting the Mara"

ELangata Olerai Luxury Camp

8/10 Good

"The staff and facilities here are wonderful. If you’re looking for a budget friendly safari, this is it. However, be prepared, there is no WiFi and the meals are limited. Other things like soda, beer, etc, cost extra. It takes some time for the hot water to come in, so start your shower about 10-15 minutes before you actually take one. You also need to book a Safari driver outside of this tented camp, which we had."
