Africa Safari Karatu

The pictures posted do not do it justice. Staff go over and beyond to assist with your every need. Wifi can be spotty but it's a minor inconvenience. The balconies give a beautiful sunset view of the Ngorongoro Crater while enjoying the birds sing. Thank you so much for making our stay with you so special.

Oh, my gosh. This is an absolute treasure hiding in the hills of Karatu, just outside Ngorongoro. The value for the money is insane. Beautiful rooms. HOT water. Unbelievable views of the surrounding region. POOL?! Excellent cuisine. Decent wifi! It’s a bit remote and Google will attempt to take you all over God’s creation and NOT to the hotel. Follow the road signs and make your way to the beautiful Africa Safari Karatu for yet another unforgettable experience while in Tanzania. SO worth the journey to get out here. And one word gets out? It’s going to be difficult to get a reservation to this place. Enjoy it NOW!

A very attractive lodge outside of Karatu towards Ngorongoro. It is newly built and some construction of additional buildings is still going on at the premises. Being made of brick, it is quite unusual (refreshingly so) for a typical lodge in the area, with very comfortable, clean and well-designed rooms with fantastic balconies offering stupendous views. Welcoming and friendly staff and tasty food. Beware though of the 6 km access road that gets extremely muddy after the heavy rains, particularly a short stretch about 1,5 km from the main road. Hopefully the lodge will in the future invest in the repair of this little stretch of the access road, to avoid their guests getting stuck in the mud and thus losing some valuable time, and so improving the overall experience of this lovely place.

Superb lodge with the best view ever, so quiet apart from bird life which sometimes lands on your balcony which makes it even more special! Staff wonderful, beer local and good. Nothing was too much. Perfect base to do the Crater safari and Lake Manyara.

The stay at the lodge was amazing - just wonderful. Very friendly staff, very flexible and helpful. The food was better than in some European 5* hotels and all wishes were taken into for all mesls. Always fresh food and selfmade. Many thanks to the chef. It is far one of the best lodges we had in Tanzanir and Zanzibar. Big congratulations to the whole team and our safari guide Starn_TheGuide. The experiences we had in the Serengeti, in the jungle and in the village were breathtaking. Thank you for the amazing vacation! Keep going like you do! 👏🏽🫶🏽

What a view! This place is quite a bit out of town, but when you're there the views are amazing. With a quaint pool, lovely staff and decent meals. A great place to start your safari adventure from, so close to the ngorogoro-crater. You will not be disappointed, enjoy your stay.

Brand new lodge in a very peaceful setting yet close by & easy distance from Ngorogoro Crater and Lake Manyara. Rooms were lovely, lots of privacy to escape. Food was good quality & freshly prepared although limited options if you are on the set full board/half board. The pool area was very comfortable. The staff, particularly Joseph, Wilson & team were fantastic and made our stay enjoyable. Thank you!

We had a really nice stay! The staff was really friendly and they prepared vegetarian lunch boxes for us! I had the chance to go swimming early in the morning in the pool with a stunning view!We had a really nice time!
