Perched gracefully along an acacia-studded ridge in the heart of Tanzania’s legendary Serengeti, Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge is an award-winning sanctuary that seamlessly blends traditional African artistry with sophisticated comfort. From its elevated vantage point, the lodge and its stunning infinity pool unveil sweeping views of the boundless savannah, where lions stalk, cheetahs race, and the rhythmic march of migrating wildebeest turns the horizon into a living canvas of movement.
Step into a world of refined adventure, where elegantly crafted rondavel-style suites, built from stone and thatch, evoke a sense of warm heritage and timeless charm. As the sun sets, indulge in gourmet dining beneath a starlit sky and surrender to the stillness of this ancient landscape.
Whether you're embarking on private game drives, uncovering the secrets of the Ngorongoro Crater, strolling alongside Maasai guides on nature walks, or learning Swahili over handcrafted cocktails, every experience is curated to connect you deeply with Africa’s soul.
Here, at the edge of the wild, time slows down. And just outside your door, untamed Africa awaits.
A Culinary Experience in the Heart of the Serengeti
At Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge, dining is a celebration of culture, comfort, and culinary artistry, set against the backdrop of one of the world’s most majestic landscapes. Begin your day with a steaming cup of Tanzanian coffee or tea, savoured on your private balcony as the Serengeti comes to life.
Savour succulent prime cuts in the sophisticated dining room or allow our team to arrange unforgettable bush experiences, from English breakfasts beneath acacia trees to sundowner cocktails overlooking the golden plains. As the sun dips below the horizon, enjoy your drink on the terrace beside the infinity pool, where the ambience is as exquisite as the view.
The main dining hall, with its soaring domed ceilings, is a masterpiece of traditional African design, adorned with Makonde carvings, papyrus-topped pillars, and clustered around a central roaring barbecue hearth—a gathering place for guests to share stories and flavours alike.
Meals are thoughtfully curated to reflect a blend of local traditions and global sophistication:
- Breakfast and lunch are buffet-style, featuring full English and European options, as well as a range of meat, fish, and vegetarian dishes.
- Dinner is a refined table d'hôte experience, with soup, entrée, salad bar, desserts, cheese and biscuits, and your choice of tea or coffee.
- Vegetarian dishes are always available, and most ingredients—from fresh produce to dairy and meat—are sustainably sourced from local communities surrounding the reserve.
At Serengeti Serena, every meal is more than nourishment—it’s a sensory journey woven into the rhythm of the wild.
