Rated in 3 /
Set on the top of a steep hill, Bashay Rift Lodge is ideally located in the heart of the fertile Karatu area, only a few km away from the Ngorongoro Crater.
Far from the crowd, along the "Northern Circuit", yet conveniently close to a variety of activities, including wonderful Safaris into Manyara NP and the Ngorongoro Crater which are only a few kilometers away. Discover the special culture of the Irak tribe, beautiful coffee plantations, or Lake Eyasi, where the Hadzabes, traditional hunter-gatherers, live their traditional lifestyle.
THE LODGE
The lodge is built on the top of a hill amidst a magnificent garden.
The public areas including the beautiful terraces offer unique views over Lake Eyasi and the Rift Valley. Due to its ideal location, Bashay Rift Lodge has become a very pleasant stopover before heading to the northern parks. Within the past years, it has been enjoying great popularity as a getaway for several nights to relax and unwind.
ROOMS
The lodge consists of 32 individual rooms with a special "Farm in Africa" feeling, spread in the wide and lovely garden.
All rooms offer unique views and all differ in terms of size, layout, and decoration.
PUBLIC AREAS
Leading off the beautiful garden terrace with commanding views over the valley, the main bar & lounge with its fireplace is the perfect gathering point.
Throughout the day refreshing drinks or tea are served here and at the pool bar. In the evening, pre & post-dinner drinks can also be served at our main bar. The elegant main restaurant with its terrace offers spectacular views up to Eyasi Lake and an accommodate up to 60 guests. The pergola close to the pool area offers a smaller dining section and usually serves traditional Tanzanian cuisine.
SWIMMING POOL & SPA
The view from our pool is truly astonishing...
After a dusty day in the bush, our guests enjoy a refreshing dip in the beautiful pool surrounded by breathtaking panoramic views or indulge themselves with a massage.
THE FARM
Over the years Bashay Rift Lodge has developed real farm activities including a Coffee plantation project, vegetable and fruit garden (with bioproduction), and chicken house. In our bee hives, delicious honey for tea and coffee is produced.
The farm provides fresh quality products for the lodge and also supplies other MKSC properties.
EXCURSIONS
Mountain bikes are available to our guests and are ideal to ride through the local farming areas and nearby villages.
Further down Lake Eyazi, both Hadzabe & Datoga tribes can be visited. The experience of the traditional hunter-gatherer lifestyle gained great interest over the past years.
