Saruni Mara
Camp Saruni Wild
Masai Mara-Kenya
Saruni Mara is a deluxe, intimate lodge set in a private conservation area outside the Masai
Mara National Reserve offering the thrill of a real African adventure coupled with the highest standards
of style and comfort. With accommodation for only 12 guests in six cottages, it is set in a remote valley at the heart of
the most exciting wilderness in Kenya. Safaris at Saruni Mara is a thriving adventure, driving or walking among elephants,
lions, zebras and endless other species of wild animals, accompanied in total safety by professional guides in the magic of
old Africa.
Established in 2003 by a group of friends who shared their passion for Africa (Riccardo Orizio,
Pia-Sophie Wool, Paolo Barberis Canonico and Davide Barberis Canonico), Saruni Mara Camp accomodates 12 guests at the
main lodge and six at nearby tented camp, Saruni Wild. Set in a remote valley at the heart of the most exciting wilderness of Kenya, Saruni Mara Camp offers a new concept
of African safari: a real adventure lived in harmony with the Maasai warriors coupled with high standards of style and comfort.

Saruni Mara camp was designed and built by Kenyan architect Mark Glen, it
has six large cottages, where one can experience both the elegance and safety of a permanent accommodation with the thrill
of sleeping in close contact with nature. The rooms are furnished with colonial antiques, Persian carpets and African art.
The atmosphere at the camp is informal but elegant. Each cottage has hot and cold running water, 220 volt electricity, elegant
Italian bathroom fittings, polished wooden floors, and large bathrooms where the canvas front can be totally open to offer
you an amazing "shower with a view". Décor is unique for each cottage and from the large verandahs one
enjoys a unique view of the Mara plains and can watch the many wild animals that come to our waterhole. Your safari actually
starts on our massive cedar beds, from where you can see in total privacy elephant, leopard, waterbuck, bushbuck and
impala traversing freely and peacefully in the grounds of the camp.

Saruni Kuro House is the common dining area and is a mixture of old-fashioned
Africa and modern design. Its huge fireplace is the focal point of life at Saruni and it is here that our guests exchange
memories of the day's safaris. While reminiscing they can start to savour the exceptional cuisine that is served around
our long table and uses fresh, locally grown and organic produce in inventive ways. Alternatively meals can be taken in the
bush among the wild animals, with birdsong and animal calls as a backdrop. By separate arrangement a candlelight dinner can
be served on your own verandah
A unique feature of Saruni is its collection of books and its library, the most beautiful in the African
bush. With thousands of rare books and its very private location, Saruni's library is a place where to meditate, to rest,
to think.
Saruni has a low impact on the environment thanks to the use of solar power and the recycling of waste.
