Accommodation

MEAC ensures that all guests have the opportunity to truly live as a Maasai. We do this not only by offering a wide range of activities that reflect the typical lifestyle of Maasai men, women and children, but also by using traditional Maasai huts as our accommodation.

Maasai huts usually have similar layouts and designs. There are usually two large beds, each sleeping two, with a small fireplace in the middle, which serves as the kitchen. There is also a small space provided for the keeping of livestock that may be at risk of predator attacks.

A Maasai Hut is made of sticks and dried mud. The Maasai people have lived like this for hundreds of years, and we welcome foreigners to truly experience Maasai living and culture.

Maasai people live by very simple means, and so our accommodation is quite basic. It is important for guests to understand that our accommodation is not as luxurious as hotels in Nairobi, but it does give foreigners the opportunity to see how our people live.

We look forward to welcoming you to our Manyatta.

"MEAC is so proud to be a community based project. Our greatest asset is definitely knowing the people we are helping, and a passion that comes naturally from knowing we are helping our friends, neighbours, families and tribe."
