As its name suggests, Elewana lies on the Maasai Mara’s Sand River, surrounded by lush riverine forest.
Elewana Sand River is situated close to the Tanzanian border and, during the Annual Great Migration from June to October, you can watch herds of wildebeest and zebra crossing the river. Although the river doesn’t flow all year, when it’s full, it draws all kinds of animals and in dry season, elephants will dig down into the sand floor to source water. The wildlife has gotten used to the camp and wildlife regularly wanders through, from buffalo to elephants and zebra.
The camp has been designed in classic safari style, so it feels like you’re stepping back into the 1920's age of canvas and firepits but there is also a modern pool and high-end dining. Guests will usually spend their days out on game drives in the Maasai Mara, an area famous for its big cat sightings.
Why we love Elewana Sand River
-
During the Great Migration, you can watch herds of wildebeest and zebra crossing the river from the comfort of your veranda
-
Surrounding the camp, the plains are filled with game that attract predators year-round, including lions, leopards and cheetahs
-
Sand River is in a very secluded location, so you hardly see any other safari vehicles and can enjoy unspoilt wildlife viewing
-
The riverine forest is a birder’s paradise
Facilities
Meals are served in the dining area.
Game drives in custom 4x4 vehicles bring you closer to the animal action, especially during the Annual Great Migration when hundreds of wildebeest and zebra cross the Sand River. One of the highlights of staying at Sand River is the chance to take a balloon safari over the Mara.
Lodge Package • Breakfast, lunch and dinner • Scenic sundowners • Selected drinks including soft drinks, house wine, local beer/spirits • 2 shared game drives per day • Airstrip transfers • Laundry • Park fees
The camp has been certified Gold Eco-Rated by Eco Tourism Kenya.
