This camp is situated in a wonderful site on a hill near the Grumeti river It is a member of the “Small Luxury Hotels of the World” The lodge offers 25 luxury tents, each with a private terrace and personal valet (5 King Size and 20 Twin Bedded Tents).
The objective of the camp was to recreate the atmosphere of an Edwardian hunting safari tented camp. It is indeed luxurious and the service and standards are extremely high but there is in our view something slightly overdone and contrived about the atmosphere that the camp tries to recreate. The theme is carried out throughout and many enjoy the luxurious feel which features chintz-covered chaises longues, Persian rugs, antique escritoires, wind-up phonograms, leather-bound travelling cases, brass shooting sticks, carved rocking chairs, and stud-backed smoking chairs.
The stone flagged, khaki-and-canvas ‘Sun downer’ terrace looks out over gently sloping acacia groves towards the lilac-grey hills and the plains of the Serengeti’s Western corridor. In keeping with the theme of colonial opulence, the dining tents feature Edwardian-styled dining furniture, sprung floors, crisp-starched napery, delicate blue and white china and weighty silver accoutrements, whilst the staff are attired in classical colonial ‘mess’ uniform of white Swahili robes and turbans.
