Accommodation at Lake Nakuru Lodge
Situated in the South East Ecological niche of the park is Lake Nakuru
Lodge, an oasis of comfort and excellent service, with commanding views of
the lesser flamingo dotted with the Greater Flamingo for which Lake Nakuru
is justly famous.
It is another world for the visitor, where one easily forgets the hustle
and bustle of the city. The lodge blends well with its surrounding and the
animals often browse peacefully close to the lodge and environs, much to
the fascination of the visitors.
There are accommodations for 120 people, either in family rooms, cottages,
or suites. The service is unmatched anywhere in Kenya, a country renowned
for hospitality.
Meals and Relaxation
There is excellent cuisine, which includes outside catering, Bush
Barbecue, African night and Sundowners.
After a days watching, the spacious logged Mama Nikki bar, the cool
upstairs Rhino Paddock Cocktail Bar overlooking the lake and the enticing
blue swimming pool can be particularly inviting. Evening entertainment and
slide shows for guests is interesting and varied. The Baboon Cliff lookout
sits next to Honeymoon Hill.

Mara Sopa Lodge, Maasai Mara
Set in the Oloolaimutia valley the lodge blends in perfectly with its
surrounding hillside landscape. The accent here is on the Masai people and
the fabulous wealth of wildlife, birdlife, and natural flora to be found
in the fabled Masai Mara Game Reserve.
Location: The lodge is located 206 km south of the Equator on the eastern
boundary of the Masai Mara Game Reserve in south-western Kenya, 2km from
the Oloolaimutia Gate. Access to the lodge is via a tarmac road from
Nairobi to Narok and an all weather road thereafter and it takes about
five hours. The alternative is a one hour scheduled or chartered flight
from Nairobi to Keekorok airstrip from where transfers to the lodge can be
arranged with prior notice.
Accommodation & amenities: The lodge has 200 beds by way of 77 rooms, 12
suites and 1 presidential suite, all of which are 'rondavel' style and
have en-suite bathroom facilities which provide shaving sockets and
hairdryers. Every room and suite has a private, elevated verandah with
splendid views across the valley and on which guests can relax, sunbathe
and watch resident birds and wildlife. Mini-bars are also available in
each room. Altitude & Climate: The lodge has an altitude of 2,104 meters
(6,400 feet) above sea level and, because of the cool breezes through the
valley it is sited in, enjoys warm days and cool evenings. The April /
June, October / November rainy seasons ensure that the reserve is verdant
almost throughout the year.
Clothing: Only the lightest of clothes are recommended although a light
sweater might be needed for early mornings and evenings. More formal
attire might be advisable for cocktails and theme evenings while swimwear
is a must by the pool.

toiletries. The lodge has a freeform, fresh-water pool which offers
spectacular views over the valley.
