The Serengeti Serena Lodge is a fantastically designed hotel, all constructed in an East African-inspired design from local rock and wood and thatch. Makonde carvers have shaped and polished and carved seemingly every door handle and rail, and rooms are wonderfully shaped into unusual but superbly comfortable pixie houses that resemble mushrooms.

These feel very private, with just three extremely spacious and comfortable rooms in each, and most have good, uninterrupted views across the surrounding Serengeti Plains. Views are also good from the central dining room and the separate cosy bar, both of which are arranged slightly higher on the hill beneath impressively lofty makuti thatch.

These are just a stones throw from the Serengeti Serenas crowning feature, a magnificently situated drop-off pool surrounded by shady tree and sunbeds set out in private areas. The restaurant is notably good, with fantastic nightly buffets and much of the food cooked before your eyes in the open-air kitchen.
