What a great place to stay in the Serengeti. The tents/rooms are nicer than many hotel rooms with very soft linens and pillows and well appointed bathrooms. We had 2 tents, one with a king and one with a king and double for our kids. Being a tent, showers were a bit long as you wait for the hot water to reach you. The views from the rooms was amazing. The baboons walk by every evening to get to their perch in the trees. Once the sun goes down, you need to have an escort to get to/from the dining hall....and for good reason. One evening (see photo), there was a leopard watching us have dinner. Another evening, there was a hyena in the parking lot. You can hear the baboons, lions and other animals throughout the evenings as well. The food was great with many made to order parts like pasta in the evening and eggs in the morning. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. My daughter became ill and while we were having dinner, many of them stopped by to check on her to see if she needed anything. Definitely an experience you should have while on safari in the Serengeti.

The meals are delicious, the staff are very friendly. We spent happy days and nights. If you wish to visit Serengeti you must come to Embalakai to live such a good experience as we had. The Embalakai authentic camps have very tasty dinner menus every night. The staff team made sure we were taken care of, and accommodated every request we had, and they are very knowledgeable about the area, animals, and geography of Serengeti. It was a once in a lifetime experience that we will never forget.

Embalakai was warm and welcoming and an excellent place to rest and eat before and after game drives! I traveled solo and the room was spacious, the bed cozy and the staff went above and beyond to make sure I had a nice stay! I had 2 nights there and it was perfect!

What an incredible experience. This Campsite is 5 stars with great tents & indoor bathrooms, great view with wilder beasts, impalas, near the rooms and the food is excellent for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I would highly recommend using Embalakai Authentic Camps as you park Accommodation.

Embalakai camp is the perfect place to extend the Serengeti experience: you're in the middle of nature (and the wild animals !) but still with the comfort (we had excellent food !) and support of the wonderful crew. You will enjoy your time there as we did.

The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly. The food is heavenly and they even catered to my intolerances. The beds are very comfortable and the tent is very well equipped. The setting in the park is an amazing experience. Sleeping amongst the animals is an unforgettable moment. I was slightly scared but the staff reassured me and took great care of us. Highly recommend!

The food is amazing. They treated us like they had met us before, like we were family. The Massai are the kindest and are willing to learn new things. We danced and sang the whole time we were there. I would love to come back every year. Thank you Embalakai family

Our experience was truly unforgettable! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home, especially Phoebe and Virginia were so kind. The tents were beautifully decorated and uniquely equipped. To top it off, the food was the best we had on the entire trip. Surrounded by stunning nature, it was the perfect getaway!
