    viewing experience
    communication issues
    insulation concerns

    excellent location for crater access, beautifully designed luxury tent, stunning views from the rim

    The communication regarding vehicle availability for game drives is lacking!!! Insulation in the tent needs improvement, as outside noise can be distracting!!! Confusing billing process that left me unsettled!!!

    Family with children should def consider it

    The design of the place is something else,, felt like we were in another world. The staff? Super warm and helped us with everything,.

    Not exactly a bargain,, but honestly it was worth it.

    breathtaking views
    cozy seating area
    delightful variety
    unclear communication
    game drive confusion

    The luxury tent offered breathtaking views of the Ngorongoro crater, and I especially loved the cozy seating area that was perfect for relaxing with a book. The staff were so warm and attentive, ensuring we felt right at home. Breakfast was a highlight, with a delightful variety that fueled our adventures. It truly felt like a personal and magical experience, surrounded by stunning nature.

    Communication about game drives could have been clearer.

    luxury tent
    fantastic dining
    stunning views
    insulation issues
    remote location
    communication problems

    The luxury tent offered breathtaking views of the Ngorongoro crater. The location is truly something special, just a stone's throw from the crater entrance. I particularly enjoyed the beautifully designed space, which enhanced the overall atmosphere. However, communication about game drives needed improvement. I found it frustrating to learn late that getting a vehicle for such a drive would be difficult. Our arrival from Arusha was long and tiring, but the warm welcome and helpfulness of the staff made it easier. Unfortunately, the insulation in the tent could use some enhancements. I noticed noise from outside was a bit distracting at times. Dining was excellent, and I especially appreciated the variety offered for breakfast. Still, the remote location does make logistics a bit tricky. I appreciate the amenities provided, but the complications regarding vehicle availability and insulation do need addressing.

    The beautiful design on the Ngorongoro rim took my breath away! While the room wasn't perfectly insulated and communication could've been clearer about game drives, I still adored the stunning views. 🌄

    well-designed space
    variety breakfast

    I enjoyed a comfortable stay in a well-designed room with access to a private balcony. Breakfast was a highlight, with a good variety offered daily. Despite a long trip from Arusha, the location was ideal for exploring the nearby attractions.
