Surana Mara Camp

SURANA MARA CAMP

MASAI MARA, KENYA

Perched above the iconic Mara River and overlooking the vast, untamed plains of the Maasai Mara and the Mara Triangle, just 9km from the Serengeti border, Surana Mara Camp is where the raw power of Africa meets genuine luxury. The tented suites are deliberately open to the surrounding wild, so the sights and sounds of the Mara become as much a part of your experience as the beautifully appointed interiors. Game drives depart in custom Land Cruisers with elevated viewing platforms, led by guides with an intimate knowledge of this legendary landscape. Dining is full-board and unhurried, with daily five-course menus, two river-facing bars and a sunken riverbank lounge lit by firelight after dark. The spa, infinity pool, gym and on-site photography studio, complete with professional Nikon equipment and a resident photographer, ensure that every moment of your stay, whether active, restful or creative, is as memorable as the wildlife beyond your tent.
