House in the Wild

House in the Wild, a family-owned luxury lodge, is situated on the Mara River in the Enonkishu Conservancy, on the northern edge of the Maasai Mara ecosystem. The lodge features 7 beautifully designed cottages for an intimate and serene escape. Renowned for its rewilding success and thriving wildlife, the lodge offers an authentic safari experience and a warm, welcoming team delivering unforgettable moments.

The lodge essentially boasts 10 rooms with 3 of the luxury cottages being 2-bedroom cottages, perfect for families. The charming cottages are individual in features, many set on the Mara River and with expansive verandahs and stunning views. All feature copper baths and outdoor showers with luxurious décor. There is a main lounge and dining area with a Swahili bar, expansive lawns and a swimming pool with a thatch gazebo. Dining takes place either privately under the stars, by a log burner in the gazebo, by the open fire in the dining room, or on your private verandah.
