I only popped in for a quick visit but was immediately struck by the friendliness of the staff. I was saddened not to be able to stay at the lodge and really take in the whole experience. The drive to E Unoto is bumpy and through authentic Masai villages so your visit is a wholly authentic African experience. The rooms are lovely and the setting is very peaceful. While it lacks the view of the lake that other Manyara lodges or camps have, it makes up for in character. I would recommend this camp not only because it is an excellent accommodation but also because it is a community initiative with the local Masai community.

Client Comments

We loved Plantation Lodge. Beautiful gardens and lodge, fantastic food, great service. Really intimate and secluded. Great Place. Room was really nicely decorated, went for a lovely massage. A great start to our holiday. Mbuzi Mawe was a really cool place. Couldn’t believe the standard of accommodation – 2 four poster beds, robes, slippers... more
