andBeyond Bateleur Camp detail

Bateleur Camp nestles in the cool shade of a forest in the Western Mara, on the edge of the Masai Mara’s endless plains. Its location is so superb that it was used for the iconic closing scenes of the film  Out of Africa.

Eighteen opulent, tented suites are situated to make the most of the awe-inspiring landscape. The camp’s communal spaces are comfortable, spacious, and inviting, from the cool veranda to the sparkling pool. The quietly attentive service of your butler is a welcome indulgence. Bateleur Camp offers an authentic African safari experience with thoughtful contemporary touches.

Year-round Big 5 game viewing and the spectacular Great Migration are best experienced on early morning and late afternoon game drives. Guided bush walks provide a more intimate portrait of the land, while thrilling, spot-lit night drives uncover Mara’s rich nocturnal life. An early morning hot-air balloon ride over the plains is highly recommended.

Rooms

Tented Suite

The exquisite tented suites offer a perfect blend of romantic canvas and polished hardwood floors, with generous en suite bathrooms and superb views from private decks. The sophisticated palette of muted gold and natural tones, combined with richly textured fabric, creates an elegant and serene retreat. Ceiling fans and needlepoint rugs enhance the sense of timelessness. You may well find yourself seated at the carved writing desk, pen poised above a postcard, gazing out over the endless, rolling plains, quite lost in the moment.

Facilities

The central lounge is classically decorated with some delightful contemporary touches and abundant homely comforts. Enjoy wonderful views over the Masai Mara plains from the large veranda or relax in the comfortable lounge, which features a roaring fireplace in the cool winter months. In the summer months, take a refreshing dip in the pool and settle onto a gorgeous poolside lounger, attended discretely by your butler. All wellness treatments are provided in the comfort of your suite or the camp's spa.

Dining

Bateleur Camp serves delectable Pan-African cuisine in its elegant dining area or on the spacious veranda, with its magnificent views over the plains. One of the camp’s delightful traditions is stopping at a scenic spot for sundowners during the late afternoon game drive. On request, the staff take pleasure in arranging romantic, candlelit dinners served al fresco in a forest clearing under the stars, or sumptuous bush breakfasts prepared to order at a scenic spot.
