Marriott will launch two luxury safari camps in Kenya—The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara in August 2024 and JW Marriott Mount Kenya Rhino Reserve in early 2026. Both offer luxurious accommodations and all-inclusive experiences. Pricing details are pending, but they promise unique features and activities, making them exciting future options for travelers seeking safari adventures.
Marriott is set to enhance its offerings in Kenya with two new luxury safari camps available for booking with points. The first, The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara, is slated to open in August 2024, boasting an all-inclusive experience with nightly rates starting at over $2,600 per person. Award nights for these camps are not yet available, leading to speculation on pricing based on past experiences with Marriott’s existing properties.
The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara will feature 20 luxurious tree-top tented suites, complete with private infinity plunge pools and large living areas overlooking the game reserve. The property will also include a stargazing deck, an outdoor gym, a wine cellar, and offer daily game drives as part of its services.
The second property, JW Marriott Mount Kenya Rhino Reserve, is expected to open in early 2026 on the private Solio Game Reserve, featuring another 20 luxury tents with private plunge pools. This location is designed to enhance opportunities for wildlife enthusiasts, including amenities like a horse barn, fitness center, and spa.
Marriott is further expanding its portfolio with two significant safari properties in Kenya. The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara and JW Marriott Mount Kenya Rhino Reserve will offer luxurious experiences, although specifics on award booking availability and pricing remain uncertain. Travelers interested in safari adventures can look forward to unique amenities and activities, making these new properties desirable destinations if reasonable point deals become available.
