About Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge
Perched on the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment with commanding views of Lake Manyara — a scenic overnight stop on the route between Arusha golf and the Serengeti.
Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge clings to the edge of the Great Rift Valley escarpment, 1,000 metres above the shimmering waters of Lake Manyara. The lodge's design echoes the surrounding landscape with circular rondavel-style rooms, stone pathways, and a stunning infinity pool that appears to spill over the cliff edge toward the lake below. As a key stopover on the Northern Circuit between Arusha and the Serengeti/Ngorongoro, the lodge offers an excellent overnight pause for golf safari guests transitioning between the Arusha Golf Course and the Serengeti National Park Golf Course.
