Olare Mara Kempinski

About this property

Within the wildlife-rich plains of the private Olare Motorogi Conservancy. Olare Mara Kempinski is one of the most exclusive safari experiences in the greater Masai Mara National Reserve ecosystem. The conservancy model limits vehicle numbers and beds, creating a quieter, more intimate atmosphere than the main reserve. Here, rolling savannah stretches uninterrupted to the horizon, dotted with acacia trees and frequently patrolled by lion prides, cheetahs, and large elephant herds.

The camp features a select number of spacious tented suites, each elevated on wooden decks with panoramic views over seasonal streams and open plains. Designed in classic safari style with contemporary elegance, the tents include oversized beds, indoor and outdoor showers, freestanding bathtubs, and private verandas ideal for watching wildlife drift past. The main mess tent is warm and inviting, with a lounge, bar, and dining area opening onto the landscape. A serene infinity pool is a refreshing break between game drives.

Olare Mara Kempinski is particularly well suited to travelers who value privacy, space, and exceptional guiding. The private conservancy allows for off-road driving, night game drives, and walking safaris, experiences not typically permitted inside the national reserve. During the months when the Great Migration moves through the northern Serengeti into the Mara ecosystem, wildlife density in the conservancy becomes extraordinary, often without the crowds seen at major crossing points.
