The rooms are much loved by the guests. All have en-suite facilities with rustic interior designs. The beds are comfortable with good linen. The glass windows stretch from floor to roof, offering a good view of the plains below. They have been designed for natural cooling through the screened opening on top.

Some balconies have a bath where you can relax after a long day in the park.
Views
The rooms and restaurant offer good views of the vast Tarangire savanna plains, especially since the lodge is perched atop a small cliff.

You can wake up during sunrise to catch the changing colors of the sky and see the plain come to life.

Watch out for
- The lodge is fairly remote. It is best if you are accompanied by someone who knows the area.
- If you are traveling during winter, the room’s natural cooling design can act as a bane rather than a boon. Do not hesitate to ask for extra blankets.
- There is no W-Fi.
- There are no power outlets in the room. The staff will gladly have your devices charged but you are dependent on the sun as the place is solar powered.
