Serengeti Serena in Tanzania

Introduction to Serengeti Serena

Serengeti Serena is located in one of the most popular areas of the Serengeti known as Seronera. Seronera area has an abundance of wildlife almost entirely throughout the year and falls on the path of the annual migration. The hotel is a lot more intimate than many of the other Serena Hotels and is our personal favorite from this group. The hotel looks like Maasai rondavels with an extremely ethnic design outside whilst the interiors are a blend of African and Western style. Strategically located on a hillside overlooking plains below you have fantastic views of the animal life passing you by. In many instances the staff are what make a hotel and this is definitely the case here. Possibly the most interesting staff member is a Maasai warrior with a guitar who comes and sings for the guests while they are relaxing on the front balcony. They have a great restaurant that overlooks the pool area and a portion of the valley below.

Rooms at Serengeti Serena

There are a total of 66 rooms in the hotel. Styled in a Maasai boma type theme with thatch roofs, the rooms are very large and comfortable. They are double story buildings with the better rooms on the top level having a greater view of the Serengeti plains below. We particularly enjoy the front veranda and where we encountered a couple a fabulous sunsets whilst relaxing there after the long day. These rooms are definitely the most comfortable of all the Serena hotels we have stayed in.

Facilities

The facilities in the hotel are as follows:

• Babysitting facilities
• Nurse on call 24 hours a day and flying doctor service
• Laundry
• A very good curio shop
• Swimming pool
