Each of the 66 rooms is accommodated in a stone-built, traditionally-thatched ‘Rondavel’, featuring stone bathrooms, wildwood balconies, rope-lashed staircases, leopard-print drapes and intricately carved furniture.
The main public area is made up of a two-tier dining room supported by massive papyrus-topped pillars and embellished with ‘Makonde’ carvings suggesting the audience chamber of a tribal king! All of this looks down over the swimming pool area and Serengeti landscape beyond.
Like all the Serena hotels this is a large and well managed hotel with good service and food but it’s not going to provide you with anything intimate or a genuine safari experience. Would not be on the top of our “wish list”.

I am just back from Tanzania and wanted to thank you very much for a fantastic itinerary. I loved all the accommodation choices made, all the connecting flights worked well and the guide was superb. I had a great time and let me know if you want to get some more feedback on any of the properties suggested by you and also Pongwe Beach which excellent.
Many thanks for a truly great holiday! Nyerere National Park was a great success as we saw the wild dogs on 2 occasions and some great lion kills. In fact we saw a pride of 10 lion including cubs within 10 mins of landing in the Nyerere National Park! Zanzibar was wonderful! The sunshine hotel was beautiful and the staff were lovely.
The welcome and kindness and generosity we have received, in all of our camps and stops has been tremendous. Although we have both travelled a lot over our years together, we both agree this holiday has been outstanding, and one of the best experiences of our lives.
Thank you for organising a fabulous holiday for us – memories of which will last a lifetime. We have arrived back completely awed by Tanzania and Zanzibar. We saw the all the wildlife we could possibly wish to see. Our driver was charming and looked after us brilliantly. Lodges were excellent and food fantastic.
