Included in stay

COMMUNITY-FIRST HOSPITALITY

At Mara Hilltop, we believe tourism should enrich communities, not extract from them. We've partnered with local Masai women to build traditional manyattas using sustainable, locally-sourced materials. Our spaces showcase authentic Masai beadwork alongside contemporary Kenyan art, creating a marketplace for cultural exchange and economic opportunity. Every stay with us directly supports these ongoing community initiatives.
