Seronera Wildlife Lodge

算是塞倫蓋蒂的性價比之選吧，設施比較陳舊，只有早晚供電有熱水。大環境不錯，房間環繞着一個大庭院，旁邊的草坪上有時會有小動物比如羚羊跑進來，餐廳望出去有時會有長勁鹿。巖石旁有個高台，視野開闊，可以欣賞到草原日出日落。

We loved our stay in this lodge. Most lodges in Serengeti offer tented structures, so the comfort of staying in a place with safe walls gave us peace of mind. We had two connected rooms with one double bed and two single beds. From our room, we saw a lot of animals like giraffe, zebra, and cape buffalos. The most fascinating of all was spotting a dik-dik (smallest antelope in Serengeti) from our room. We didn’t see dik-dik during our actual safari. They have a nice viewing deck, from where one can get a bird’s-eye view of the Serengeti Forest. The hotel staff are good and very helpful. Their chef cooked special daal (lentils in Indian style) for us as we didn’t find enough vegetarian options. One thing I want to tell them to fix is the creaky wooden floor in the rooms. In the daytime, we didn’t notice the sound much but it gets annoying in the night. The floor makes weird creaky sound when you walk over it. Though I am not reducing any stars for that reason, I hope the hotel management will take a note of it.

An impressive looking lodge quite close to Seronera airstrip. The bar, restaurant and pool are set on a small rock hill with great views over the expanse of the Serengeti. All meals included buffet style and food was okay with tea and coffee included but water and all other drinks cost extra. The lodge is quite large and popular though service coped well. Rooms are quite small and dated. No aircon. Electricity is turned off at night. Hot water is only available in the morning and evening. Organising transport and game drives was complex and expensive, it may be better to book a tour package that includes everything.

Stayed two nights here and loved it. The staff were friendly and welcoming, the food was fresh and delicious, the rooms were comfortable and clean. We watched the sunrise each morning and saw animals roaming the grounds while we ate breakfast. Enjoyed every minute of our stay and look forward to our return.

The best things about this place is the location and it’s views. Also the swimming pool, bar area and viewing platform are great too. All staff we came across were lovely and friendly. The negatives were the bedroom/s. Can’t speak for them all of course. But ours was very small and pokey. The view was lovely however. Food in the resturant area was good enough. But the boxes we were given for lunch were the poorest we have had on our trip. We were a vegetarian and a vegan and on the final lunch box day the vegan dish was chicken. Not the best that. There with a few other options within our boxes so we got around it. It’s still a stunning place but just a few things let it down. But not enough to leave us with a disappointing experience. The positives out weigh the negatives.
