Fairmont Mara Safari Club

Pros: location is excellent, very nice amenities, food is very good, and game drives with Moseka were also good (despite not finding a male lion). I was injured during this trip and the nurse Betty took great care while redressing my wounds. All staff were very polite. The property itself is beautiful. Wake up service and morning coffee delivery was a very nice personal touch. View of mara river and hippos grunting away will never be forgotten. Cons: disorganised staff - they didn't know we were on our honeymoon trip despite telling them in advance. Phone did not work in the room and our room was in the far wing of the property. There were a lot of staff at the property who mentioned that they are assigned to us specifically but then we had to rely on the other staff. During checkout, they couldn't figure out we had prepaid in advance. They booked hot air balloon for us on the day of checkout only to then later rush us to pack in hurry when they could have simply told us to keep our luggage ready a day in advance.

We had such a wonderful time at this hotel. We really couldn’t have asked for more. Our Guide Reuben was one of the loveliest people I have ever met and he really the made the whole experience special. Simon was our waiter and he was also very friendly. Thank you to Patrick for keeping the pool clean and for talking to me about ****nal football club. I could not have asked for more, this was a wonderful place to stay.

Fantastic location in the Mara. Convenient to great the local air***** and awesome animal adventures. We actually used this as the base for a visit to a Maasia Mara village - a great cultural experience. The accommodations were wonderful - what you would expect on an African safari but so much more. The food was fabulous along with the staff - meeting your every need. I would strongly recommend staying at this club.

Amazing. What more could you ask for? For our family, this had it all: beautiful lobby/bar/restaurant area with fireplace, outdoor seating, and decadent buffets for each meal. Friendly and knowledgeable staff who will go the extra effort to make it a great stay. Lovely tents with all the creature comforts. Remote location with very knowledgeable and engaging guides who get the vibe of the group. Outdoor pool! And I have been on many Kenyan safaris as I lived here for 5 years. Simply excellent!

Most beautiful location in Mara, close to Lemek conservancy. Excellent service from our guide driver Geramiah, Mary who served us a memorable bush dinner and Brian in front office. Beautiful serene with delicious fresh food menu. Truly a wonderful experience

I dreamed of visiting this place and my dreams came true. It is MAGICAL. If you are going to Kenya, this is THE place to stay. Everyone is highly trained, professional and welcoming. The buildings are superb. The location is beyond amazing. The bar is great. The food is pretty good too. I couldn't find one thing to complain about. Seriously. Not ONE thing. Go. Have the experience of a lifetime. And stay here.

The Fairmont was unbelievable, I could not have asked for a better place to stay. My one qualm is that I found it unclear that the costly Maasai Mara Conservancy fees were not included in the nightly rates, so that ended up being an unexpected cost at check-out. Nevertheless, the incredible service and amenities made up for the extra cost. The Fairmont links you up with the same waiter, guide, and room attendant for your entire stay, which is a very nice touch. We really got to know Alex (our waiter), Moses and John (our guides), and Sammy (our room attendant) during our 4 night stay - all of whom were absolutely amazing. Gerald was also wonderful behind the bar, and the food was incredible.
