About

Perched on a rocky escarpment and named after a nearby sandpaper tree, Ol Seki combines classic safari romance with modern comforts. As part of the Hemingways Collection, the camp is known for its warm service, attention to detail, and commitment to conservation through its partnership with the community-owned conservancy. The setting is both wild and serene, offering exclusivity, privacy, and meaningful connection to Kenya’s natural and cultural heritage.

Rooms

The camp comprises ten spacious, canvas-domed suites—six Nina tents, two family-style Simba tents, and two luxurious domed suites known as Chui. All are beautifully appointed with panoramic glass fronts, hardwood floors, en-suite bathrooms, and private verandas that overlook the sweeping savannah. The larger suites come with dining areas and lounges, ideal for families or longer stays. Interiors are tastefully styled with a blend of safari neutrals and vibrant Maasai accents.

Dining

Dining at Ol Seki is a relaxed and elegant experience, with meals enjoyed in the dining tent, on your private veranda, or under the stars. The cuisine is fresh, flavourful, and international in style, complemented by fine wines and tailored service. Private bush breakfasts, sundowners, and candlelit dinners in the wilderness elevate the experience, creating unforgettable culinary moments in the heart of nature.

Activity

Ol Seki offers twice-daily game drives in the exclusive Naboisho Conservancy, where wildlife sightings are exceptional and varied—lion, cheetah, elephant, and large herds of plains game are frequently seen. Guests can also enjoy guided bush walks, cultural visits to local Maasai villages, and night drives, which are not permitted in the main Maasai Mara Reserve. The camp’s location allows easy access to the reserve for full-day excursions, particularly during the Great Migration.
