Overall, it was a great stay here for a night. We did not expect the good room conditions as we knew it looked a bit outdated. Had buffet for a dinner but to be honest it wasn't good as many dishes are duplicated. On the other hand, staffs were really helpful and attentive and the view with animals was outstanding! These covered all downsides here.

The room floods when it rains, the position of carrying 2 toddlers to move the room has to be packed, once the pick-up car is ready it takes a long time to eat late, the staff is friendly but the facilities don't match the price. Just come here once

The service is good. It's just maybe because of the high rainfall, so the floors are moldy, the cupboards are really dusty and the mattress pillow covers are damp. Maybe the housekeeping can be improved, yes. Before guests occupy the room, the room is cleaned first.

Wake up to a view of African animals really is an amazing experience! We booked Swala room (ground floor) with connecting door and very satisfied. Staffs are very kind and helpful. Lobby is very near to park, so if you feel a little tired at the park, you can take a break at your room. Breakfast with lion is also very exciting. Overall we enjoyed every activities here.

I am very grateful to traveloka and mara river, because they were given a kifaru room which can see animals directly from behind the room, maybe this is the only kifaru room that has a direct view of animals, so it was very memorable, especially my children. In the morning at breakfast all the staff were very kind and friendly, I was even chosen a table close to the lion. Thank you for a very pleasant experience, really recommended anyway.

There are too many different regulations from other 5-star hotels, for example breakfast is only for 2 adults, not including children, so the resort is not family friendly, anything is subject to an extra charge, so that in the future it can be improved and better.

Untuk breakfast hanya include 2 dewasa 2 anak kami tidak termasuk. Padahal biasanya kami staycation 1kamar include 2dewasa dan 2anak mungkin regulasi dan kebijakan pada mara resort bisa dibuat lebih fleksibel seperti resort lain agar kami orangtua bisa nyaman staycation bersama anak.
