A luxury tented camp deep at the heart of the world-famed Maasai Mara Game Reserve has just been declared as the number one hotel in the world.
Mahali Mzuri, owned by British tycoon Sir Richard Branson, has been ranked as the number one hotel in the world in the 2021 Travel + Leisure World’s Best Awards.

Sir Branson couldn’t hide his happiness and took to his social media handles to thank Virgin Limited Edition, which manages the beautiful property. It was a good night for the Virgin group as Kasbah Tamadot, one of their properties was also named the best hotel in North Africa for the fourth time – and the third year running.
