Fairmont Mara Safari Club

Our safari drives were absolutely incredible, Dominic was knowledgeable about all the animals, plants, and landscape. He was dedicate to ensuring we had an optimal experience, we loved every minute! Safariing with him was a highlight. The resort was clean and peaceful with some added touches such as warmed beds at night.

Had a wonderful stay. Food and service was great and the tents were luxurious. Highlight of the trip was obviously the safari drives, Dominic was the BEST guide. Knowledgeable, kind and very generous with his personal experiences around the Mara. Highly suggest requesting him as your guide, you will have the best experience! Thanks Dominic! Mich

The hotel is on the banks of the Mara River and several hippos make their daytime home there. They even have a hippo corner. At night they migrate to their feeding grounds. The hotel is very comfortable beds with mosquito nets. The bar is open for drinks anytime (seems to be) nd if you see Patrick, he will make a great cocktail for you. He also manned the evening gin bar at the fireplace. I had a great massage from Millicent who has strong hands. We had morning and evening game drives where we saw some unique sights. The meals were also filling and delicious the kitchen and wait staff were first rate. I cannot be happier with my stay at the Fairmont.

Visited the Fairmont Mara Safari in October 2025 with my wife and two kids (11 and 8) and stayed for 3 nights in a double queen bed tent. Exceptional stay. The entire resort staff are the most welcoming and helpful. The tents are great and really add to the safari experience - comfortable beds, nice powerful shower, fully functioning toilet and good sized vanity area. The food is also great at the resort with plenty of options available. If you want something specific, just ask, they will make whatever you want, just give them enough notice. The game drives are also a great experience and well organised each morning and afternoon. Your driver will find and you will see lots of animals. In fact, from the moment you are collected from the air strip, you will encounter zebras/giraffes/pumbas... And thats not even a game drive. The resort has a really nice ambience and never felt crowded or busy. I would thoroughly recommend this resort for your safari. Whilst all the staff are extremely nice it felt we like we had a personal service and so a special mention to Geoffrey (housekeeping), Peter (restaurant) and the best game driver we could have wished for, Lemkoko. Cant wait to go back!

it was the best trip of my life. service is top notch. they guided us through every moment. the hotel had a very good view as well. Chef Kevin made the best indian food especially being a vegetarian he made exceptional food for us too. Walter gave us the best service at our stay all the time and highly recommend to pick John as your driver during your game drives, he made our safari’s too good and made our every animal spotting possible.
