Olarro Lodge

Exceptional! We stayed at 3 places in Maasai Mara and this was absolutely the best! The attention to detail, service, flexibility and privacy of being in a private reserve, the friendly and professional staff, the excellent guide that was exclusively with us for all our activities. We did the quad bikes which was super fun and welcome change after 7 days of safari. The food was excellent and they had almond milk!!! Oh almond milk! I had asked for soy because no one else had almond - they had ordered that for me from Nairobi which was really over and above expectations. Then I found out they had almond and I was sooooo happy! It was perfect in every way. They don’t miss a beat. We started safari at 6:30 am and asked for coffee at 6am and it was perfect to wake up to coffee and get dressed for the game drive. Anyway... To sum it up, the whole experience was tailored around what we wanted and it was all done seamlessly, and everyone was aware of the plans, friendly and helpful! We wanted to see lions, so our guide listened out for their roaring at night, spoke to the rangers - triangulated where they may be - but we didn’t have any luck finding them - so we went back to the lodge, finally when the lions were sited he came and told us, we jumped in the car and sped off to see them! That’s incredible care and attention. So many more stories that made it special.

This was hands down the best holiday experience ever!!!! The lodge is located on a beautiful hillside, with its own conservancy area. Which is wonderfully maintained
