First off, the staff at this hotel are exceptional, everyone you meet is happy, positive and goes above and beyond your expectations of quality service. The club room option, while a bit expensive, is an incredible experience. There is access to a members only lounge and swimming pool, so you are guaranteed a quiet, relaxed space to enjoy food and drinks. We practically had the place to ourselves, including the chef. The food was fantastic and varied daily, prepared by the excellent chef Steven and his assistant Daglas, who are both absolute gentlemen. The service we got was so good, we made a list of names of the staff who made our stay most memorable. Doreen, Caroline, Andy and Alex running the lounge were always on hand, with a drink, for a chat, a laugh and to share some local knowledge with us, they made every meal time a joy. Jack looked after our room and was on call at any moment to get us whatever we needed, he is an extremely nice, friendly person and a great ambassador for the Sarova brand. Veronica doing entertainment and games is full of positive energy and always greets you with a big smile, creating a lovely, fun atmosphere around the place. Upon arrival, we were met by the wonderful Ruth, who can organise and fix anything for the guests,, she is an amazing person and really enhanced the experience of our visit. And last but not least our guide for the game drive, Daniel, being a Masai he has great knowledge of Masai Mara, where best to see the big 5, and all the other incredible animals and birds, we had an amazing time with him as our guide. I honestly can't speak more highly about the place and all the staff we met were amazing, just the list above are the people who we spent the most time with. There's a nice, relaxed, happy atmosphere to the place with a genuine commitment by everyone to ensure you have the most amazing experience possible. We will 100% be back!

Our experience at Leisure camp was simply unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, everyone welcomed us with such kindness and warmth that we immediately felt at home. The staff are truly the heart of this place, always smiling, attentive, and ready to help with anything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious, with every meal freshly prepared and full of flavor. We especially appreciated the care and creativity behind each dish, you can feel the passion of the team in every detail. Our room was beautiful and very comfortable, perfectly blending elegance and nature. Waking up to the sounds of the savanna and seeing the sunrise from our terrace was a magical moment we will never forget. And of course, the safari experience made our trip truly special. Our guide, Joseph, was exceptional, knowledgeable, patient, and with an incredible eye for spotting animals. Thanks to him we learned so much about the wildlife and culture of the Maasai Mara, and every drive became an adventure filled with wonder and emotion. Thank you to everyone at the lodge for making our stay so memorable. We left with our hearts full and already dreaming of coming back one day!

everything it’s absolutely beautiful, the hotel , location, staff are amazing, super friendly and nothing is a bother. we arrived late day one (our own fault) and on leaving they had a packed lunch ready for us to take as they said we had missed one of our lunches! if your looking for a authentic stay inside the Masai Mara park with the most fantastic setting wrapped around you then 100% recommend the Ashnil. we were a family of 5 - all adults and everyone adored it. lovely big swimming pool with sun lounge area ..

It was our second visit to Mara NP, but our first time sleeping within these grounds. Waking up with a river view and having zebras or hyenas or giraffes looking right across is mesmerising. The tent was clean, comfortable and spacious enough for three persons. Esmo was assigned to take care of us at meal times and he did a wonderful job. The meals were freshly prepared and very good. It was like a set menu and there was always a vegeterian option. The Masai also made us feel safe in the evening while escorting us.

All staffs are very helpful specially Kelvin and daniel. They arranged masai dance for us with bonefire .The chef was also very cooperative. 24 hrs uninterrupted hot water supply. This property is inside the forest but considered as out side so you don’t have to pay entry fee if you are not going for game drive. Overall very good experience. 24

Everything was top-notch! However, we’d like to highlight the quality of the food and the kindness of all the staff. The chalet rooms are really nice (and bigger!) and the tents are facing the river, more noisy but to us this was not a problem since that’s what we were looking for! To hear the sound of animals (mostly hippos and birds).

Perfect location - right next to Ol Kiombo airstrip, the most amazing staff, incredible food, and beautiful tents! Our safari guide, Joab, and the staff namely, Metrine, Masila, Charles and Sallilah (apologies for any typos!!) were very friendly and took a lot of effort. We thank the entire team for their dedication and hard work.

Very unique property with cool African architecture. I like everything about this place.

Outstanding guides, reserve and camp overall. Highly recommended!

Perfect stay, right on the river to see the hippos too :)

Excellent ambience and amazing staff!
