마니아타 캠프

This was a wonderful place to stay next to the Wildlife Lodge with your own private pool. However there was only the option of booking the room and breakfast with Trip.com. The service staff were rude when we asked about lunch at the restaurant saying you only booked breakfast. Luckily there was a la carte by the swimming pool. However for more convenient viewing of the water hole would recommend booking a room at Voi Wildlife Lodge.

Manyatta has a fantastic location and all of the accommodation feels private with a fantastic view, even more special when the elephants pass by, that’s a wow moment. Comfortable accommodation and enjoyed the plunge pool. Food was pretty good. Short drive to Tsavo East NP. Could really have relaxed there longer. Gave 4 stars as a few small areas for improvement for example the mosquitoes net was very dirty, the key for the lighting also had the key for the door to the terrace attached so every-time you wanted to unlock the terrace door the lights and fan went off. More of an issue at night when it’s dark. Felt like the restaurant area could do with a bit of an upgrade. Housekeeping came after 11am when we were back from our game drive and relaxing in the room. Considering most people are out in the morning it would be better to clean the rooms earlier, also it was not busy. The first night they turned down the beds and put the mosquitos net around, the second night they did not. Not a big issue but better to be consistent either way.

Our 2 night stay was simply worth it. The camp is amazing, clean and well set up. The tents are very nice, comfortable and spacious, and what makes it amazing is the private swimming pool outside each tent overlooking the view of Tsavo East. We had lots of elephants and a few zebras pass going towards Voi Wildlife Lodge. The staff are so friendly and helpful, they greet you every morning and ask if you rested well at night. Carol at the reception was amazing, she took care of us and ensured we were comfortable. The security guard - Thomas took care of us well and he showed us a cheetah early in the morning that wasn't too far from our tent. We followed the cheetah all the way to Voi Willdife Lodge where it went to drink water. Later in the evening we saw a Lioness at Voi Wildlife Lodge which is a 10 minute walk from the camp. The food was amazing for both veg and non-veg - There's a good variety one can choose from. The dessert also is fresh and so delicious! The Staff at the dining area were so good and always asked us how our day went and if we saw any animals. I love this camp - it's just perfect. I enjoyed my stay and will definitely visit again and again!
