Views
The surrounding views of rooms and dining area have been rated good by most clients. It truly feels like you are amidst the African wild. The area is surrounded by African bushes and you can see animals like elephants in the floodplain ahead which is the main highlight. You can sip a glass of wine on your veranda and catch this magnificent view.
Sometimes, you wake up to the sounds of monkeys and mongoose. The bar gives a good view of the valley and Lake Manyara.
Pathways between tents have sculptures. Dik diks can be spotted on your walk. In the evenings, you can have a campfire set up to enjoy the wilderness while sipping on beer or wine.
Surrounding wilderness level
Good - You are in the middle of wilderness and have wildlife coming very close to camp and you might get to see wildlife from your rooms/campgrounds and most likely you can hear wildlife through the night.
Food (based on clients feedback)
The food has been found to be satisfactory by most clients.
A major highlight is the private dinner on a patio, secluded from the main dining area. You may have to inform the staff beforehand.
Pepper is grown inside the property, around solar panels that is used as an ingredient in their dishes.
