About this stay
Maji Moto Eco Camp is a community-owned tented camp in the Loita Hills, run by Maasai families from the neighbouring village of Maji Moto, which takes its name from the hot springs that feed it. Ten igloo-style tents are spread through the bush for privacy, each with a mattress, proper bedding and its own quiet spot with a view, while the dining area, kitchen, showers and long-drop toilets are built Maasai style from local materials. Hot water for the showers is carried in from the spring, evenings are lit by lanterns and the campfire, and simple meals blend Kenyan and international cooking. It is an unpretentious, low-impact base for walking in the Loita Hills and for meeting Maasai life up close, about an hour from the Masai Mara.
