Located high on the slopes of the Oloolaimutia Hills, Masai Mara Sopa Lodge was one of the first safaris lodges to be built in the Maasai Mara Game Reserve, a reason why its gardens and trees are so lush and mature. All the buildings follow the design of traditional African round houses with conical roofs, and these stretch along the line of the hills with the impressively large public area buildings and the swimming pool at their center.
