Manzili House Maasai Mara

Manzili House, Maasai Mara is an exclusive-use, intimate, and luxurious private safari home perched on the Siria Escarpment, offering a spectacular eagle’s view across the plains below. The house is located on the Siria Escarpment, 20 minutes from the Mara Triangle, Kenya. 

There are daily scheduled flights a day from Nairobi’s Wilson Airport to Kichwa Tembo’s private airstrip; the flights take approximately an hour, followed by another 20-minute game drive to camp. Private charter/helicopter – Available on request

The 5-bedroom home includes two expansive luxury suites and three smaller en-suite bedrooms. Inside, you’ll find cozy lounge areas with fireplaces, treetop terraces, an indoor dining room, and forest-shaded decks perfect for long, lazy lunches. This is a home designed for immersive wilderness experiences—infused with freedom, imagination, and meaning.

Spending time on the Siria Escarpment offers a uniquely elevated safari experience, with breathtaking panoramic views across the endless plains of the Mara and into the Northern Serengeti. Manzili Mara serves as a refined, private base to explore one of Africa’s most celebrated wilderness areas.

The house is built in traditional Maasai style—with mud walls, stilts, and natural materials—and nestled into the forest canopy. A wraparound deck, large lounge, and central fireplace create warm gathering spaces.
