Plantation Lodge is a short drive from the bustling market town of Karatu, owner-run and is a calm and elegant sanctuary from the dusty business of a safari.
Just an hour and a half from the crater rim and only 45 minutes to Lake Manyara makes this the perfect base for your Tanzania holiday.
Rolling lawns, the scent and colours of the flower gardens, discreet service, a lovely pool and a massage contribute to a refreshing stay.
The 23 individually decorated rooms and five spacious, stylish suites are well-spaced in the attractive gardens. Families or small groups can enjoy the four bedroom, double-storey Garden House with its verandah offering magnificent views of the hills. Meals are fresh and varied with some produce coming from the Plantation Lodge gardens.
