We don't tend to pick favourites, but this might be it. The location, style and guides make for an incredible stay. They dare to keep it simple while being tastefully luxurious and are getting it so right!

About

Discreetly tucked into the landscape, Lamai Serengeti is designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding kopjes and bush, offering a sense of complete immersion in nature. The camp is elegant yet understated, embracing natural materials and open-plan living that connects guests to the rhythms of the wild. With a strong focus on conservation and authenticity, the lodge provides a luxurious yet low-impact base for exploring this extraordinary ecosystem.

Rooms

The camp’s eight open-fronted rooms are built into the boulders, offering panoramic views of the Serengeti below. Each suite features comfortable king-sized beds, en-suite bathrooms with hot showers and flush toilets, and shaded verandas ideal for relaxing or wildlife watching. The design balances rustic charm with comfort and privacy, giving guests a sense of complete escape in the heart of the wilderness.

Dining

Meals at Lamai Serengeti are fresh, thoughtful, and enjoyed in relaxed yet refined settings—whether in the open-air dining area, around the campfire, or in the privacy of your veranda. The menu blends local ingredients with international flair, and the camp’s attentive team ensures that dining is both personalised and in tune with the day’s adventures.

Activity

Game drives are the main focus at Lamai, with expert guides taking guests into the heart of big cat territory and to the banks of the Mara River during the migration months. Walking safaris offer a more intimate perspective on the landscape, led by highly trained guides and trackers. Outside the migration season, the region remains wonderfully quiet and rich in resident wildlife, making it a year-round safari gem.
