Staying at the JW Marriott Masai Mara Lodge was completely life-changing and has ruined all of our future holidays because no other vacation will ever measure up to it. My partner and I went to celebrate my partner's birthday and enjoy a little earlymoon (pre-wedding trip) to the lodge. It was worth splurging our Marriott points on this property. From the start, Thelma (the property manager) ensured that our stay would be truly special. She welcomed us with the best possible news—we were upgraded to the honeymoon suite, Tent 21 (the biggest tent on the property and the only one with a private plunge pool). The tent, with its luxurious trimmings and every comfort imaginable, overlooked the Talek River and felt utterly dreamy, granting us the seclusion we desired. She also assigned us a private jeep for all three nights of our stay without having to pay the $450/day fee for that privilege, which we thought was incredibly thoughtful, given the nature of our holiday. Our game driver, Joseph, was a real-life genie; he fulfilled all of our safari dreams and ensured that we saw all the Big Nine, including cubs, and experienced many other rare sightings, like that of a bat-eared fox. At the restaurant, Joseph and Kilian always greeted us with a smile, ensuring we were well taken care of. Chef Rajiv utterly spoiled us with any and all dishes we could think of, including delights like fish Amritsari and chicken chili, which, in the middle of the wilderness, was the kind of luxury we couldn’t have even imagined. Diana was very helpful throughout our stay, making sure we were comfortable. I especially appreciated her support when I felt a bit sick on my second day there. Kennedy at the Canon studio helped us learn the basics of wildlife photography, which came in handy when taking pictures of a lifetime. We loved that the lodge has a partnership with Canon and that we didn’t have to carry our own gear. Melvin and Faith at the spa had magic fingers—my stress melted away completely. We absolutely did not want our holiday to end and would return in a heartbeat.
