Recently refurbished, Sanctuary Olonana sits gracefully on the banks of the Mara River, right in the heart of Kenya’s Big Game territory. Its enviable position within the Maasai Mara National Reserve offers endless opportunities for unforgettable safari adventures – and, in season, the chance to witness the spectacular Great Migration.
Spanning 320 square kilometres of open savannah, lush woodlands, and winding, tree-lined rivers, the Maasai Mara is home to an incredible variety of bird and wildlife species. Guests can explore this remarkable landscape on thrilling game drives, immersive bush walks, or from a bird’s-eye view on an unforgettable hot air balloon safari. Beyond the wildlife, the camp offers a fascinating cultural experience with visits to a nearby Maasai village, where you can glimpse the traditions and daily life of this iconic community.
Sanctuary Olonana features 14 beautifully appointed suites, each with expansive decks overlooking the Mara River and elegant en-suite bathrooms. Three of these suites offer extra space, making them perfect for families or larger groups. Between game drives, relax in the library lounge with a good book, then savour gourmet meals in the dining room while enjoying the river’s abundant birdlife just outside. Special touches include romantic bush dinners and expertly prepared picnic lunches enjoyed in the heart of the wilderness.
