With only seven rooms, the camp offers an intimate and peaceful atmosphere, set beneath the cool canopy of riverine forest and thoughtfully designed to minimise environmental impact while maintaining luxury. The elevated canvas suites overlook a quiet creek, placing you at the heart of nature, where giraffes graze nearby, elephants wallow in the mud, and baboons play—while the view from your private veranda is truly unforgettable.
At Olare Mara, you will experience the true heart of Africa. Every guest enjoys 24-hour butler service and stays in a beautiful, luxury tent designed for comfort.
Your day begins with the sound of birds and the fresh morning air as you enjoy coffee on your private balcony. From your tent, you can look out over the vast plains of the savannah. Our game drives bring you close to nature, where you can watch majestic elephants and giraffes in total silence. Olare Mara is more than just a camp; it is a peaceful place where you can truly connect with the beauty of the wild.
The sound of “Ishara” seems to drift effortlessly across the rolling grasses of the Maasai plains. Meaning “sign” in Swahili, the name draws us back time and again to this pocket of African beauty. In Kenya’s Maasai Mara, wildlife is everywhere—hippos, buffalo, hyenas, lions, leopards, and cheetahs roam freely. The camp blends harmoniously into its natural setting, tucked among cooling greenery and anchored by a grand old olive tree. Elevated walkways link the tents, offering both privacy and comfort in a well-concealed retreat—an ideal base for discovering the wildlife-rich Maasai Mara National Reserve.
