Best Serena Hotels

"If I had the chance to add 6 stars for this lodging facility I would do that happily. The staff is extremely kind and helpful.. Catherine and Charles were by far wonderful and very welcoming. We had the chance to meet the owners and they are super nice and generous as they did their best to make our stay wonderful (they made us feel home). Food is great, probably they have one of the best chefs in the area.. The whole camp is very elegant and done in a very artistic way, you'll see that in every detail of the wood there (wood lovers will like this camp)..They also provide free laundry. Keeping the best to the end, their tour guide ANTHONY wad the best (make sure to ask for him for the game drives, by far he's the best probably in the whole Mara).. You won't regret booking this camp!"

"The location of the hotel is very good, the environment is very good, the view is open, overlooking the Masai Mara delta. The breakfast variety is quite plentiful, and it is also a good choice to bring children to play."

"This is real Safari. It feels like living in a tent, comfortable, hygienic and safe. Every meal is fine dining carefully prepared. In addition to being professional, the service staff are also very attentive. Make you feel truly at home. I have been on safari in so many places, and this is the most unforgettable one. You need to stay at least three nights to enjoy the true Kenyan wilderness Safari experience."

"We had the most amazing, authentic safari experience in Masai Mara staying at Julia’s River Camp. We stayed in the VIP Camp for 4 days and their service was excellent. The staff were friendly and helpful, and attentive to our needs. The tent/room was clean and was newly renovated (just middle of this year, I heard). It is right in front of the river so it has the best view, especially during sunrise. I already miss the sound of the hippos in the morning. The game drives were excellent. It exceeded my expectation, thanks to our very experienced driver. The only down side is the food. Sometimes the chef’s cooking is bland, sometimes too salty, but I appreciate that they try to mix their menu with different dishes per meal for variety. Overall, Julia’s River Camp offered great value accommodations for the budget-friendly fees they charged. If you want better dining experience and fancy camp facilities, then choose the more luxury camp options. But if you’re looking for an affordable yet comfortable glamping experience, I’d say Julia’s (at least for their VIP Camp section) is a great choice."
