The word "Masai Mara' have been always a magical and electrifying for me. So, when I entered the gates of Masai Mara through "Sekenani" gate, I was thrilled. And, this hotel is very nearby to the gate, say 2 miles or so. The reception was warm, and they greeted us with dancing and singing. The hotel is very spacious, and... More

I was very impressed with Moses/Titus and your colleagues at Mara Sentrim who did everything possible to make us very comfortable. Your staff are incredible, the waiters/askaris/front office/housekeeping are all very polite, thoughtful, helpful and offered us personal attention. Each time I came out of the tent in the evening the askari was there to walk me to the Dinning... More

Was here through KETS. Serene atmosphere and stay inside the tents was an experience by itself. Very secure with security guards taking rounds frequently. Good Veg food was available, except that they ration in drinking water. Only 300 ml bottle per person per day. If you need more you should buy a 500 ml water from the bar by paying... More

We stayed for only one night here (third night in Masai Mara) during our visit in August 2012. We had taken up their cabins... which were large enough to comfortably accommodate 3 friends. The cabins were clean with hot water available all the time. But the highlight for us was the pool... It was small but adequate enough for us... More

We stayed here for 1 night in September. We had actually booked Keekorok Lodge, Mara, but they had sold our rooms to Chinese guests so our tour company had to find us alternative accommodation and this is why we stayed at Sentrim. I cannot speak highly enough of Sentrim Camp, the welcome they gave us was the best welcome I... More

I can highly recommend this place to stay and to ask your safari company to include it. It is situated in a great place (we saw elephant, gazelles, wildebeest, a lion, a giraffe and more in a 3 hour drive from here and back!). The staff here is very pleasant and welcoming.
