Marriott International will launch its first luxury safari lodge next year.

Marriott will collaborate with Baraka Lodges to deliver the new safari offering

The lodge will feature 20 private tents and a presidential canvas-topped pavilion. It will be situated within Africa’s Masai Mara National Reserve in Kenya, overlooking the banks of the Talek river.

Shared spaces will include a restaurant, lounge bar, spa and an outdoor terrace with fire pits. In the evenings, the space will host traditional Masai dance performances.

The lodge will aim to employ up to 50 local people from the Masai community to help with land and wildlife conservation. Guests will also have opportunities to take part in learning activities.
