JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge – A Refined Retreat in the Heart of the Wild
Welcome to JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge, the brand’s first luxury safari lodge, set against the stunning backdrop of the Masai Mara National Reserve. Perched along the banks of the Talek River on community-owned land, the lodge offers an unrivaled connection to nature with 21 luxurious tented suites—including a spacious two-tent family suite, each featuring a private outdoor Jacuzzi and deck for sweeping views of the savannah.
Immersive Safari Experiences
Set out on transformative game drives across one of Africa’s most iconic landscapes. Witness the legendary Big Five—lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo, and rhino—and, during the season, the awe-inspiring Great Migration, where millions of wildebeests and zebras thunder across the plains.
