Simba & Oryx Nature Camp

The camped tents and the place is breath taking. You really feel like you are staying in the park as you can spot zeebras, girrafes and a masai guard said that he saw an elephant early in the morning not too far. The staff will go above and beyond in addressing your needs. Additionally, they offer a warm welcome and the food was excellent. They use vegetables grown from their garden. Everything was super clean.

I stayed in Simba Oryx by accident: my trip operator forgot to book me into my original hotel, and I was rebooked here at the last minute. But I was ultimately extremely happy about the mix-up! Simba Oryx is a FANTASTIC hotel! The staff welcomed me warmly as if I was always meant to stay here. They gave me an extremely large, comfortable and well-equipped room with three beds, a large bathroom, closet, and hot water shower. Simba Oryx is also one of the few lodges inside the Masai Mara park; it is not fenced so you often see zebras and wallabies inside the property. They are breathtaking. And don’t worry about carnivores: the Masai patrol the property 24/7 and escort you everywhere. The hotel also built in a red light system that deters predators from coming in. Your room door is all made of glass so you will see the beautiful sunset in the savannah planes! Food is also great as is the massage parlour (also seems to work round the clock!) I will be staying in Simba Oryx again upon returning to Kenya.

We had a fantastic 3 night stay here. The views from the tents and the bar / restaurant area were beautiful, especially of the sunset. The tents are well equipped with good showers and comfy beds, and you get a great view through the glass front. The food was great too and tasted very fresh. But the best part was the staff - every single member of staff was really friendly and welcoming and ensured we had a great time. This was definitely the best place we stayed in Kenya! :)

James, the manager stepped in after I had some difficulty with the tour operator finalising my 2 night booking. I was at least able to stay the one night. Having stayed in the budget accommodations in the area on a previous trip, this is a very reasonably priced mid range option. The location is amazing, it is literally on the border of the park, but with no fencing, the animals can wonder in and out of the camp site. There were zebra and giraffe around my tent. In addition the sound of the nearby village are muted and you fall asleep to the sounds of yipping hyenas. The tent itself is spacious with a large bathroom and dressing area and the glass facade allows an immersive experience. The consistent supply of hot water is a luxury when compared to some of the other camps. Meals are ample of good quality. The best part of the stay was the incredibly friendly and helpful staff, special mention of James and Joel. I wish I had stayed longer

This place is Magical. Given a chance I would come here every often. The staff are so good and kind . I want to give a great shout out to Joel who ensure I had everything I needed during my stay. I spotted zebras outside my tent during day and at night. The camp is not fenced , but the Masai Guards made us feel safe during all our stay, they patrol the camp both day and night 24/7 security present . This place is totally heavenly. I’d urge everyone to pick this place totally therapeutic . And also not to mention their food is very fresh , big up to the chef Dorcas for a job well done. Also the place has ten tents therefore not so crowded making it so relaxing and chilled , I totally loved my stay here.
