Lovely two-night stay in one of the glass cabins - beautiful room, beautiful surroundings and a good location to explore the Masaai Mara. All the staff were friendly, polite and helpful - thank you. Our only suggested improvement is to the food - the selection at breakfast and dinner was extremely limited, and quite poor standard i.e. bread/rolls were stale, meat was cold and undercooked and quite a lot of the food was bland. The prepared lunches consisted of a reheated chicken leg from dinner the previous evening, some fruit that was going off, and a cucumber sandwich (two slices of cucumber in stale bread!). Even those staying in the basic camps were provided with lunches that were far nicer.

July 26 to 28 I loved the glass cabins in this property, though we didn't get as much time to gaze out of the verandah as I would have liked because we had safaris to participate in. The staff, both at the reception and in the restaurant, were friendly and helpful. The buffet was eclectic, including an Indian section that I did not try (the number of tour groups from my land was unbelievable! ). I loved the duck dishes and an African meat stew. This eco-friendly property was solar-powered and the lights on the pathways to our cottages were sensor-triggered. The downside? There was wifi only in the reception and restaurant areas. But that's a small price to pay for cueing into a Kenyan frame of mind.

We recently celebrated my daughter's birthday at Jambo Mara Safari Lodge, and it was an amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to make everything perfect. The highlight of our celebration was the fantastic food prepared by Chef Patrick. Chef Patrick was incredibly understanding and accommodating of our dietary needs. He put together a menu that was absolutely delicious. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. You could really tell he loves what he does. The atmosphere of the hotel, along with the exceptional service and the attentive care from Resort Manager Daniel, made my daughter's birthday truly special. I highly recommend Jambo Mara Safari Lodge for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or just enjoy a great stay. Thank you, Daniel and the entire team, for making my daughter's birthday so wonderful!

Front desk people are not fit to be in the hospitality industry. They are rude and give wrong WiFi password with confidence. I hate wearing wrinkly clothes. Upon requesting multiple times for an iron box , they couldn’t provide one because they didn’t know whom they had given it to and they have just 1 for the entire property. I waited from 6:30pm till 9:30pm. They have no regard for anybody’s time. I’m supposed to be up at 3am for an early morning activity and they kept me waiting until I went to the reception to ask about the update. After a long day nobody wants such bad service. I have given few clothes for laundry and I’m worried now if they will misplace it or not give it on time.

Good location near Masai Mara. Amongst the staff, Nick stood out as really helpful. Thank you Nick for your services and welcome at Jambo Mara. Food selection was good- but I would suggest improving on the dessert. Our bath water was lukewarm for all 3 nights we were there, and room entrances had a peculiar odor. Other than that, the rooms were mostly clean and well maintained.
