Olonana is a luxury camp idyllically nestling
in the heart of the Maasai Mara big game country.
The camp features 12 spacious tented pavilions
each tastefully appointed with two queen-sized
beds, en-suite bathrooms and river-view verandas
where guests can relax and watch the resident
hippos wallowing. The main cottage’s lounge
and dining area offer a “home from home”
feel, enhanced by the hosts and the resident
Safari Guides.
Its spacious verandah provides the effect setting
for after-dinner star gazing. A wide range of
activities include bush walks, visits to the
adjacent Maasai cultural village, sundowners
and day and night viewing drives. Olonana is
at the forefront of eco-tourism in Kenya with
solar power, a tree planting project and a wetlands
project which allows for used water to be totally
recycled before being returned to the natural
environment. In addition, Olonana supports various
projects to assist the local community.
The camp received a Bronze rating award from
the Eco-tourism Society of Kenya (ESOK) Eco-rating
scheme and has also been selected as one of
the top 15 safari camps in the world by “Conde
Nast Traveler” magazine.
