About Angama Mara
Angama Mara is a remarkable safari lodge set high above the floor of Africa’s Great Rift Valley where days are spent exploring its incredible wildlife diversity, and guests are always spoiled for choice. With two intimate camps of just fifteen glass-fronted Tented Suites each, guests experienc tailor-made safari days and a famously warm Kenyan welcome. Guests enjoy hot-air ballooning, walking safaris, garden-to-table lunches in the Shamba, hosted photographic safaris, and time spent learning more about Maasai culture throughout the lodge, including a visit to the Masaai Mamas who create bespoke beadwork items — or simply do nothing at all.

Tented Suites (2 camps with 15 Tented Suites each)
Architect duo Silvio Rech and Lesley Carstens, and Jan Allan, Kenya’s King of canvas, designed Angama Mara’s elegant and classical tented suites with an 11-metre wide floor-to-ceiling glass front. Each tent has the same breathtaking view — no one is better than the last — and every day, the sunrise provides guests with early morning theatre as the hot-air balloons float gently by.
Highly polished parquet floors, distinctive splashes of Maasai red, a handsome drinks cabinet (with personal bar and safe tactfully tucked away), vanity with double basins, separate w/c, writing desk with ample charging points, WiFi, Africology guest amenities, a collection of East African books, a beautiful John Vogel woven screen, and a butler’s lobby allowing for the discreet delivery of early morning tea and coffee, all add to the comfort and delight of guests in their suites.
Interconnected Family Suites
Each camp has two sets of interconnected family suites which are identical to the Tented Suites, except with the addition of a fully enclosed walkway linking them together. This means guests can still enjoy their space and privacy, with the peace of mind of being able to safely and easily move between the two Tented Suites.
Patty's Tent
Elderly guests, or those with restricted mobility, have the option of staying at Patty's Tent which has been designed specifically for guests with physical limitations. This Tented Suite includes modifications such as grab rails and ramps, but without sacrificing any special touches or comforts.
Patty's Tent has been fitted with grab rails in both the shower and the w/c. The tent has been cleared of any unnecessary furniture, while all level changes have been fitted with gently sloping ramps. All gravel paths have been cleared between the tent, guest area and vehicle drop-off point.
