OUR TENTED SUITES

Wild at heart, wrapped in luxury

Nestled in the heart of Kenya’s legendary Maasai Mara, Enkakenya Mara Camp redefines the art of luxury safari accommodation. Our exclusive collection of eight exquisitely appointed tented suites represents the pinnacle of contemporary African elegance, where every detail has been meticulously crafted to transport you into a realm of extraordinary comfort and natural wonder.

The Crown Jewel: Our Flagship Star Bed Experience

Imagine surrendering to sleep beneath a cathedral of stars, where the African sky becomes your ceiling and the symphony of the savannah your lullaby. Our legendary Star Bed stands as Enkakenya’s most coveted experience—an architectural marvel that transcends conventional luxury to offer something profoundly transcendent.

A Night Under the Skies & in the Middle of the Wilderness

Perched majestically on an elevated private deck, the Star Bed is an ingeniously designed sleep-out sanctuary that rolls seamlessly into the open air, positioning you under the infinite canopy of the African night sky. This is not merely accommodation; this is communion with the cosmos itself. As darkness descends over the Maasai Mara, the celestial theater above comes alive with constellations that have guided travelers for millennia, while below, the nocturnal orchestra of the wilderness serenades you with nature's most ancient melodies. The Star Bed experience embodies the essence of romantic adventure—a four-poster sanctuary draped in the finest Egyptian cotton linens, equipped with plush bedding that rivals the world's most prestigious hotels, yet positioned directly beneath the heavens. Your private butler ensures every element of comfort while maintaining the illusion of complete wilderness immersion. Mosquito netting creates an ethereal cocoon that protects without obscuring your celestial view, and strategically positioned lanterns cast a warm, ambient glow that enhances rather than diminishes the starlight.

This signature experience is available exclusively within select suites, transforming your safari from merely memorable to genuinely life-changing. Guests who have slept under our Star Bed consistently describe it as their most profound travel experience—a moment of clarity and connection that lingers long after departure.

Eight Sanctuaries of Sublime Sophistication

Enkakenya Mara Camp offers eight individually designed luxury tented suites, each representing a masterclass in contemporary safari architecture and interior refinement. These are not tents in any conventional sense; they are spacious pavilions of elegance that happen to canvas their walls, creating an intimate connection with the wilderness while delivering every conceivable modern luxury.

Our Standard Luxury Tented Suites

Six of our tented suites serve as intimate sanctuaries for couples and individual travelers seeking the perfect balance of privacy, space, and authentic bush experience. Each of these magnificent retreats spans an impressive 103 square meters (approximately 1,100 square feet) of thoughtfully designed living space—more generous than many luxury hotel rooms worldwide.

Configuration Options:

  • Double Occupancy Tents (4 tents): Featuring one sumptuous king-sized bed dressed in premium linens with a thread count that whispers luxury with every movement
  • Twin Configuration Tents (2 tents): Equipped with two elegantly appointed twin beds, perfect for friends traveling together or guests preferring separate sleeping arrangements

Every standard suite is a testament to design excellence, where African heritage meets contemporary sophistication. Handcrafted furniture fashioned from indigenous hardwoods provides character and authenticity, while carefully curated textiles in earth tones—ochre, terracotta, burnt sienna, and deep charcoal—echo the colors of the Maasai Mara landscape visible beyond your private deck.

The Outdoor Bathroom Experience

Enkakenya's pièce de résistance in each suite is the sublime outdoor bathroom—an innovation that consistently elicits gasps of delighted surprise from first-time guests. Enclosed within canvas walls that open to reveal the sky, these open-air sanctuaries redefine the daily ritual of bathing. The Outdoor Shower: Step beneath a generous rainfall showerhead and feel warm water cascade over you while you gaze at the stars above or watch the sunrise paint the sky in watercolors. The experience is simultaneously invigorating and deeply meditative—perhaps the most civilized way to greet an African morning or wash away the dust of adventure after an evening game drive. The Vintage Freestanding Bathtub: Each suite features a meticulously restored vintage clawfoot bathtub positioned on your private deck or within the open-air bathroom enclosure. Sink into this deep porcelain sanctuary filled with steaming water scented with indigenous herbs and essential oils, perhaps with a glass of champagne balanced on the rim, as the African sunset performs its nightly masterpiece before you. This is not merely bathing; this is baptism by luxury.

Culinary Excellence Included

All Meals: Breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, and dinner are included daily, prepared by our talented culinary team using fresh ingredients sourced from local suppliers and our own organic garden. Full Bar Service: The Enkakenya drinks package includes premium spirits, fine wines, champagnes, beers, and creative cocktails. Our mixologist takes particular pride in signature drinks that incorporate indigenous ingredients—think tamarind margaritas, baobab martinis, and hibiscus gin fizzes. In-Suite Dining: Any meal can be served privately on your deck or within your suite, arranged with as little as one hour's notice.

Safari Experiences Included

Twice-Daily Game Drives: Morning and late-afternoon game drives with expert naturalist guides in custom safari vehicles are included daily. These are not mere wildlife viewing excursions; they are educational adventures led by guides whose knowledge spans ecology, animal behavior, ornithology, and Maasai cultural traditions. Bush Meals: Periodically, we arrange extraordinary bush breakfasts or sundowner experiences at carefully selected locations across our private conservancy—always included, never an additional charge.

Location: The Competitive Advantage of Position

Enkakenya Mara Camp occupies a privileged position within a private conservancy bordering the world-famous Maasai Mara National Reserve. This strategic location delivers multiple advantages that directly enhance your experience:

Exclusive Wildlife Viewing: Our private conservancy sees only a fraction of the vehicles that crowd certain National Reserve viewing areas, meaning your game drives feel genuinely wild and uncrowded—you and the animals, not you and twenty other safari vehicles.

Extended Game Drive Flexibility: Operating on private land allows our guides to conduct off-road tracking, venture out earlier and return later than National Reserve regulations permit, and explore areas where others cannot travel.

The Great Migration Access: During migration season (typically July through October), the Maasai Mara becomes home to over two million wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle, along with the predators that follow this moveable feast. Enkakenya’s position provides front-row access to this greatest wildlife spectacle on Earth.

Night Game Drives: Available on the private conservancy portion of your safari, night drives reveal an entirely different cast of characters—leopards on the hunt, aardvarks emerging from burrows, and nocturnal antelope species rarely glimpsed during daylight.

Experience luxury while exploring the iconic wilderness. Your stay helps us protect wildlife, uplift the community, and preserve the untamed plains. Here, nature and luxury converge for an unforgettable adventure.
