The staff! They all went the extra mile to make sure, care and provide for us, on a personal an genious level. Such a service minded and professional staff. The tent was so clean and beautiful decorated. -Their pictures does not make this property justice. This was a well maintained, lush, and blooming tropical garden, with cosy lights and decorations, lovely seating areas and such a nice property. You cant tell from their dated photos, it is so different with all the gardening done there now. The food was just great. Lots to choose from, and very nice lunch boxes with deasent, fresh food. One of our best stays of our 7 stays in Tanzania.

They had a nice fireplace in the restaurant. Had been nice if they lit it in chilly mornings and all afternoons as well.

There are many good things I could write about this lodge. First of all the staff were very friendly - we arrived a bit late and the staff came to meet us at our car, helped us carry our luggage to our rooms. The rooms were very clean and well done, we had requested for a cot and for sure we found a nicely fitted one. The food was amazing - they serve both local and international cuisines. Also since you're likely to be going for a game drive every morning- they'll ak you if you need packed lunch. Even on the departure day, they packed for us take away lunch. The manager - Baraka was very kind and always ensured we were comfortable.

I think the breakfast can be improved a bit.

Nice rooms overlooking quite dense vegetation with lots of birds visiting. Friendly, helpful staff who were fantastic when trying to sort out a very dodgy car. Very well prepared food.

Entrance to the property is difficult. At night it was impossible to see where the driveway began and in terrible condition. It needs grading and needs to be lit.

This place is amazing, the feeling is like You are deep in the mountain. The staff are wonderful, smile and very interesting people. Except swimming pool have fireplace where we seat and speak late at the evening, was wonderful adventure🍀☀️😊 Thank You

Evening meals fantastic. Pack lunch for our safaris were also good Log fire in the evening and board games 🎲 were special and gave it a primal feel. No mosquitos. Staff attentive and always left with a "karibou" and a smile.

Paid for my stay well in advance and on the second night the manager wanted to see my proof of payment whuch I gave. But affected the karma of the rest of the stay for me.

Staff were excellent and friendly. Food was good. Accommodation was clean & comfortable, hot water and power 24/7, and wifi in reception area. Nice safe & quiet location right next to main route to/from Ngorongoro from Arusha.

Bed a little firm but that's just a personal preference. Certainly not a deal breaker!

The staff are very very helpful and lovely. We really enjoyed our time here. The food was excellent too.
