Accommodation is in circular thatched rooms based on traditional Masai bomas and each room has a verandah. Public areas are reached via a wooden bridge over a stream and consist of dining room, bar, infinity pool and a stunning observation point.
The rooms are based on traditional bomas and the Serena level of service is always evident at this lodge. The views down over the lake are superb and although only a two night stay is really recommended here it is the perfect location at which to begin a Tanzanian safari before you hit the big guns of Ngorongoro and the Serengeti.
