Tucked into a series of rugged, acacia lined kopjes in the heart of Serengeti National Park, Serena Safari Lodge is an architectural and experiential gem that combines raw wilderness with elegant African hospitality. Overlooking endless savannah plains, the lodge’s elevated position offers exceptional panoramic views of one of the world’s most iconic wildlife arenas. It is perfectly placed along the path of the Great Migration, making it a front row seat to the thundering spectacle of wildebeest and zebra moving across the plains, as well as year round sightings of predators like lions, cheetahs, and leopards.
The design of the Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge draws inspiration from traditional Maasai architecture, with thatched domed huts made from natural stone and earth colored materials that seamlessly blend into the surrounding rock formations. Inside, the décor is rich in local texture and character, featuring hand carved wooden furnishings, tribal prints, woven fabrics, and polished stone floors. The communal areas include cozy lounge spaces, a vibrant dining room, and an expansive terrace that wraps around the lodge, each offering uninterrupted views of the sunrise, wildlife, or starlit skies. The infinity edge swimming pool is carved into the hill and gazes out over the savannah, offering a tranquil, scenic spot to cool off between activities.
Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge caters to a wide spectrum of travelers, from couples and solo adventurers to families and small groups. It delivers an authentic safari atmosphere with the comforts of a full service lodge, including a dedicated concierge team, expertly guided game drives, cultural immersion experiences, and exceptional dining that mixes international flavors with Tanzanian culinary tradition. Whether you’re here for the migration, big cat sightings, balloon safaris, or to simply soak in the magic of the Serengeti, the lodge offers a serene yet adventure filled base that embodies both romance and raw nature.
