Accommodation
Atmosphere was relaxed. Food good. Rooms a little disappointing, as weren't interconnecting which I thought they would be and so our 8 year old daughter slept in our room; she was unhappy to be in an adjacent room. Also, luxury sea view room didn't have a sea view! Finally, upstairs suites sounded much nicer, but still didn't get round problem of connectivity.
Fantastic attention to detail. Guides and wildlife great. Being in private conservancy a real advantage in terms of night drives, bush walks. Would highly recommend. Strangely you had issued us 3 day passes to Masai Mara national Park and we only used one. It would have been difficult to use all 3 as we were only there for 2 full days and also wanted to see what the private conservancy had to offer. Luckily Cathy the owner of Ol Seki bought our surplus passes off us, as otherwise that would have been money wasted.
Amazing place, if somewhat remote. But that meant game drives/walks in the private conservancy were brilliant. Swimming pool was appreciated. Our guides were fantastic.
