Jambo! We stayed for 3 nights, but we wished we stayed here longer. Upon arriving to the site I was excited to see how our 'glamping' room would look like. We were welcomed with fresh wet towel and a glass of delicious mango juice. As we entered our tent, the room looks really nice, clean, and the bed was super comfy! Our room was next to a river where there's literally 8 hippos in the water at once. They do make loud noises at night, but lucky for me I can sleep really deep so I wasn't awoken by them at all. It is the nature, you can't tell the hippos to shut up anyway so my husband and I didn't mind the noises.
The meals we had at their restaurant were all very tasty and enjoyable. They cook proper (English) breakfast to order, and for lunch they provided 3 course meal and 4 course meal for dinner. Our waiter and waitresses seemed to be professional. They introduced their names to us, and explained what meals we would have for each courses before they started serving. I used to be a manager of a restaurant and I can see that they always served the lady first, etc. I wouldn't expect this kind of service in the middle of a jungle, but I appreciate their effort!
The only 2 criticisms I have was the tap and shower water. They do smell however we were given complimentary drinking water bottles for us to brush our teeth. Also there is no way to lock our room when we spend the whole day doing our safari rides. Everywhere I go in the world I would always want to make sure my belongings are safe, but I believe I could trust these guys to protect our belongings whilst we were out and about.
We had to leave at 3AM in the morning to catch our flight in Nairobi. Expecting to only have apples for breakfast, which I don't mind, they actually prepared us proper breakfast meal, packed neatly in a box so that we can have it on the way! I wouldn't expect for them to wake up so early to make us breakfast. This was a very good last impression of the staff here. They also helped us to drive out until we passed the river as it is dangerous to drive at night. We had to get a special license for us to drive in the dark and the staff were very helpful in assisting us.
Overall we both enjoyed our stay at the camp. Everyone we met were so friendly and made us felt at home. I will recommend my friends and family to stay here should they decide to come to do safari in Maasai...
