Excellent lodge but unfortunately it’s not located in a convenient location (2hrs away from the main road). We won’t recommend this hotel if you’re not going during the migration period (there’s nothing much to see along the way) Room is huge and hot water is abundant. We felt very relaxed during our stay there. It would have been perfect if the view is dotted with animals!

Relaxation away from civilization
It is quite long trip (we went through NgoroNgoro first), so we made good decision to stay 2 nights, and keep free afternoon next day after arrival for relaxation. But if you want to enjoy maximum of Serengeti, this is the right decision. It is very pleasant to sit on terrace and enjoy the nature around, and the property is very unique - there is not many like that. Everybody is pleasant and helpful - they kept longer opened pool, because our 10 year old daughter wanted to go swim after our arrival.
