Encounter Mara

Each of Encounter Mara’s twelve spacious tents features their own private veranda with a view over the surrounding savannah. Tents are constructed out of canvas and natural materials and furnished with handmade furniture. Tucked into the edge of the forest, our tents are side-facing, which allows for a larger veranda as well as a “bathroom with a view.” With a generous spacing between tents, guests have an entirely private space for personal relaxation. Our tents boast simple and elegant décor, soaking in the beauty of the surrounding bush.

Tent accommodation includes:
Large bathroom with wonderfully hot canvas showers and flush toilets
King sized, twin or triple beds, dresser with full length mirror
Private veranda with sitting area, lounger, and hammock
Nightly turn down service, including a hot water bottle tucked under sheets
High quality, eco-friendly shampoo, conditioner, and soaps
Optional morning wake up call with fresh coffee or tea and a selection of breakfast pastries

Our lounge tent is a great place to while away the afternoon, scanning the natural salt-lick in front of camp for the wildlife that is often attracted to it. Have a cold drink as you flip through our books and magazines or play one of our board games with the kids.
