Maasai Mara, Kenya
Serian Kimya Kimya
Riverside luxury surrounded by roaming wildlife
Private safari retreat on the banks of the Mara
Tucked into a secluded riverside within the vast expanse of the Mara North Conservancy in Kenya, Serian’s Kimya Kimya is an intimate retreat offering the opportunity to experience the magical Maasai Mara. The camp is located in Ngare Serian’s private conservancy, which borders the main Maasai Mara Reserve. The area allows for off-road driving and guided walking safaris, meaning more intimate, immersive encounters that bring you closer to the land, its wildlife and its stories.
Kimya Kimya is designed to accommodate just six guests, making it one of the most exclusive accommodations in the region. Crafted from timber and canvas, the main suite spans two stories and offers a front-row seat to the river’s daily drama. From the upper level, a deep bush bath sits poised above the flowing water-an invitation to enjoy a soak whilst elephants wander by and hippos swim in the pools below. The suite also features both indoor and outdoor dining areas, a plush mosquito-netted bed and open-air showers. Two additional tented suites are located nearby, ideal for families or small groups. Each is designed with spacious en suite bathrooms and private decks, offering serene vantage points for a morning coffee or quiet contemplation after a day of adventure.
The camp includes a dedicated private vehicle, expert guide and personal chef, allowing you the freedom to tailor each day to your preferences. Rise with the sun for a walking safari across the plains, follow predator tracks through golden savannahs or simply linger in camp, lulled by the sounds of the river. In the evening, enjoy fireside aperitifs or lantern-lit dinners beneath the stars.
