Mara Serena Safari Lodge is one of the premier safari lodges in Masai Mara, Kenya. Located in the mid north western part of the game reserve, the lodge is popular with discerning travelers not least because of the superb views from the hill top location of the lodge, overlooking the vast Mara plains below.

Mara Serena Lodge is an interpretation of a traditional Masai Manyatta village architecture consisting of connected domed huts grouped in a circular manner. It is located on the saddle of a hill, overlooking the vast plains, forests and rivers that make up the Masai Mara.

Mara Serena is the only lodge in the Masai Mara triangle- one of the world’s richest wildlife sanctuaries, as a result of this, the guests who enjoy their safari experience are normally assured a high degree of privacy.

No other lodge has such a spectacular view of the surrounding landscape or the game and bird life that inhabits it. It is this very terrain stretching endlessly before the lodge where the annual migration takes place, when millions of wildebeest, zebra and gazelle traverse the landscape to feed on the rich new grass and give birth to their young. This is a spectacle that should be witnessed at least once in a lifetime.
