Warm Hospitality at Hammerkop Lodge

Hammerkop is a lovely lodge, the staff and food were terrific. We were escorted to our and from our tent by Pasha, a gentle protector that was warm and caring and gifted us his personal spear as a souvenir that we cherish. Our game drives from this part of the park were not as good as the other places we'd stayed (not the lodge's fault, but you should know). On our last full day, we ended up driving the 3 hours back to the first part of the park so that we could find a migration crossing. OH! it was worth the journey to see that spectacle! Nothing like it, and I'd go see it again, but probably not stay here.

Wonderful camp overall, but CAUTION due to concern they tried to scam us initially

This was a very nice camp with everything we were looking for. However, I must start with a strong word of CAUTION, as we had a very unfortunate "welcoming" to the camp that tainted our initial experience.
When we arrived to the camp, the manager Morris took a call on speaker phone from his director. We could easily overhear his director state very rudely that they had not received payment from our travel agency, and that we would not be welcome to stay there if we did not provide payment in full. Keep in mind, we had already paid a large sum of money for this camp and we were not informed there was an issue with the payment until we are actually at the camp in the middle of the Masai Mara. We were essentially their hostages and felt like we were being shaken down for thousands of dollars. Why would payment not be confirmed prior to our arrival, so this could be addressed ahead of time? We became upset and reached out to our tour group (Natural World Kenya Safari), who was able to help sort this out within an hour. The way it was handled gave us the impression they were trying to scam us. They claimed they have had issues with our tour group paying them in the past. If that is the case, why would they wait until we are stranded at their camp with no where to go to confirm the payment had gone through, and tell us we would need to make another payment directly to them or find somewhere else to go? This all happened within the first 5 minutes of us arriving to the camp.
After the unfortunate start to our trip was sorted out, and we were allowed to stay there as planned - everything else that followed was wonderful. We were treated with nothing but kindness once they told us they were able to confirm our payment. The tents were comfortable, clean and well maintained. The food was fantastic. The location was perfect, with our tent overlooking the river were we would see hippos, crocodiles, and baboons from our front porch. We had a fantastic experience overall, but I would be weary to stay there again due to how we were initially treated.

A very quiet and beautiful place

This place is amazing. It is lost in the bush there is nothing around at approximately 10 km. We can hear and see hippos baboons crocodiles etc. The tents and the camp are so safe and so clean. The food is amazing. People are so nice and friendly. They take care of you so well. We loved this place so much.

magical place for those who love being immersed in nature.
Few tents but all beautiful and equipped with all comforts
The evening and night are the most exciting moments to spend in this Camp.
Dinners by the river and animals that entertain you with their calls, music in Africa!
I absolutely recommend it

If you are looking for peace, nature and animals and enjoy good food, this is the perfect place

A small but lovely camp right on the Mara River.
If you like peace and quiet, this is the place for you.
The few large safari tents are so far apart that you have your own space.
The cuisine here in the bush is outstanding! The chefs here conjure up magic with such dedication - it was unbelievable.
