A polished escarpment lodge north of the park with a rim-flow pool, spa and gym, where the view runs out over Lake Manyara and, on a clear morning, as far as Meru and Kilimanjaro.
Lake Manyara Kilimamoja stands on the escarpment above the park, about seven kilometres from the Lake Manyara airstrip and ten from the park itself. Accommodation is forty-eight deluxe suites plus two two-bedroom villas, each with a private balcony, indoor and outdoor showers and a fireplace for the cool highland evenings. Communal space is unusually generous for the area — lounge, dining room, spa, media room, billiards and a rim-flow pool set against the valley.
Flying in
The nearest airstrip is Lake Manyara, about approx 10 min by road from the lodge. See the real fly-in routes and how the rest of the region connects on the Getting Around map.
