JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s global portfolio of 30 extraordinary hotel brands, today announces the opening of bookings ahead of its Spring opening.
Set to welcome guests from 1st April 2023, JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge will mark the brand’s very first luxury safari lodge and will sit within the Masai Mara National Reserve in southwestern Kenya – one of Africa’s most renowned wildlife conservation and wilderness regions. Overlooking the famed banks of the River Talek on the edge of the reserve, the mindful retreat will offer guests a harmonious backdrop from which to discover the Reserve’s stunning vistas, abundant wildlife and endless plains.
JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge will feature 20 private tents, including a Honeymoon tented suite with a private plunge pool and two interconnecting canopied suites, each with a private terrace and jacuzzi overlooking the river and the Mara plains. In addition, the lodge will offer a restaurant, lounge and bar, JW garden, swimming pool, spa and a large outdoor terrace and fire pit area.
Rooted in mindfulness, the sophisticated interiors will pay homage to the surrounding natural landscape by drawing inspiration from the elements, inviting guests to be present, connect with nature and enjoy a holistic, wellness-forward stay. The landscape will offer the opportunity to observe the “Big Five” that Masai Mara is home to including lions, leopards, buffalos, rhinoceros and elephants. Between June and September, the reserve is also host to the annual great wildebeest migration which sees more than 10 million animals travel a distance of 1,800 miles from the Serengeti in neighbouring Tanzania.
Rates from $2,500 per person, per night (all-inclusive). To book visit www.marriott.com.
