Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge

Less than 30 minutes’ drive from the park gate, Lake Manyara Serena has an elevated position on the escarpment. Its 67 spacious rooms are in thatched circular buildings derived from local architectural traditions. All have full-length windows with uninterrupted views across the floor of the valley. The rooms are set in lovely gardens and the feeling is one of openness and space.  The bar and drop-off infinity pool are the focus of activity in the lodge and meals are good. In addition to game viewing, the lodge offers walking safaris, mountain bike and canoe safaris, nature walks and traditional dance performances in the evenings.
