Facilities of the hotel was satisfactory, but far from Deluxe standard. No sheets, but rather cover, which were not changed. -View in dense bushes without chance of animal seals from the tent I -A bucket next to the toilet suggested to the incompatibility of the toilet paper to go (however no sign or mündl. Note) and we followed this idea yet (!) the toilet was clogged twice daily (also with the neighbors)-Deluxe? There was no lock on the tent, everyone h …  read more

Especially a thick praise goes to the kitchen, i have rarely so well eaten in Afrika! … read more

Introdution: the on arrival missing chairs before our tents (simple variant without own du/ toilet), as well as a requested additional towel were delivered promptly. Gerdi, the owner of the camps, and Peter, your manager, are trustworthy, competent and very nice. The Aruba Mara Camp-team is unbelievably friendly, this low-key and unobtrusive. Especially our boys (14 and 12-years-old) by the massai ( no matter wether waiter, Nachtwache or safari guide) welcomingly taken care of. You have a few words massai language, different tuchtragetechniken and some of the traditional life, have evenings the feuermachen helped and many stories wild animals erzahlt get. Thank … read more
