Wow, our favorite lodge we stayed at during our 10 day Tanzanian safari roadtrip. We stayed 2 nights and wish we had stayed more. The setting above the Rhotia valley is spectacular. The tents are also really nicely done, and we loved the stylish little touches (eg. the robes!). The pool area was lovely, and the perfect spot to cool down and enjoy the view after a day in the crater. Some reviews complained about the distance to Ngorongo but we didn’t find this to be the case. It was only 30 min to the entrance to the confirmation area, so with a typical early start you could easily be one of the first ones in. The real issue is the drive from the gate to the descending road to the crater, but there is no way around that unless you want to fork out to stay inside the conservation area / along the crater - and we didn’t! The food was also really good, probably the best of the lodges we stayed at (despite not being the most expensive!). Good food made with love - especially the BBQ they did one night, I ate my weight in pork ribs. Lastly - the staff were *so good* :) Friendly and with good senses of humor :)

    The chef was world class. Every dish was excellent. The entire staff was wonderful. My friend and I stayed three nights and the staff learned our names, reached out to us to see when we would be at meals, escorted us to our room after dark, etc. The room was beautiful. The property was beautiful. In short, I would return to Tanzania just to stay at this lodge.

    Overall the place was really lovely! The rooms (Maasai Boma) were the highlight for us, so comfortable and well appointed. The food was also great, we went for the full board option and the food was tasty. Only thing, would have liked a bit more choice, would get a bit samey with a longer stay. Happy our waitress on the first day was amazing, so friendly and helpful! Walked us to the lake and told us all about the area. Overall the lodge is great, we would come back.

    Wow what a place ! As the name indicates it has magnificent sunrises and also sunsets... Inbetween you will probably be on Safari drives 🙂. Dinner was good and tasty, the staff cheerful and helpful. The rooms and facilities are confortable. And the place, high above, with great views over lake Manyara just beatiful. A great alternative to Karatu on the way to Ngongoro or Serengati. Strongly reccomend !!!
