Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge

Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge

Serengeti

An iconic lodge located in the heart of the Serengeti National Park, one of the most celebrated wildlife reserves in the world. Positioned on a wooded hillside with sweeping views of the endless Serengeti plains.
The design of Serengeti Serena Safari Lodge is inspired by traditional Maasai architecture, with thatched rondavel-style rooms which blend seamlessly into the natural surroundings.

Each of the 65 “rondavel” bedrooms feature locally inspired designs with elaborately carved wooden furniture. Bedrooms are spacious with a very comfortable king-sized bed en-suite bathrooms, and private balconies that enjoy spectacular views. The lodge offers an infinity pool and sun terrace, a beautiful domed dining room reminiscent of the Maasai round huts, along with a scenic safari bar.

The lodge’s location in central Serengeti is ideal for exploring the region’s diverse ecosystems and abundant wildlife. It is particularly well-positioned for witnessing the Great Migration, one of nature’s most extraordinary spectacles, where millions of wildebeest, zebra, and gazelles traverse the plains in search of fresh grazing lands. Guided game drives, led by expert guides, provide you with insight into the Serengeti’s iconic wildlife, including lion, leopard, elephant, and cheetah.

Additionally, the lodge offers a range of activities, including hot air balloon safaris, bush breakfast and dinners, and guided nature walks that show you the smaller creatures of the ecosystem. There are also cultural experiences, where you can engage with the local Maasai community and learn about their traditions and way of life.

How our Tent Ratings work

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
