Property Description
Mara West Camp borders the remote and wild western edge of Masai Mara National Reserve. Guests enter the park through the Oloololo Gate and safari throughout the Transmara side of the park. Far from the paved roads traversed by safari vans, this part of the park is remote and less frequented by those traveling by road. Guests often fly in to the nearby airstrip or travel by road in 4×4 vehicles specially outfitted for safaris.Mara West Camp has eight secluded chalets, perched on the edge of the Oloololo Escarpment, overlooking the vast plains of the Transmara Triangle below, six traditional safari tents overlooking the escarpment's bordering valley as well as 20 Bandas overlooking the Camp savannah.The secluded chalets are a unique combination of canvas and solid building materials. The bathroom is made of brick while the bedroom area consists of canvas panels with zippered windows and roll up panels. The floors are solid hardwood and the tent is entered through a pair of French doors, with glass window panes. The traditional safari tents are built of canvas with zippered door and windows with roll up panels. The bathrooms are also made of brick.In both the secluded chalets and the safari tents, full bathroom facilities are en-suite with flush toilets and large spacious showers, complete with good water pressure and plenty of hot water twice a day, mornings and evenings. Mara West Camp's electricity is a combination of solar, generator and battery packs, so that power is always available for lights, and during generator times power is available in the tents for charging equipment and other electrical appliances.Various activities in the camp include game viewing which is the highlight of a stay at Mara West Camp.
