Situated on the edge of the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Neptune Ngorongoro Luxury Lodge is a short drive away from the famous crater – a world wonder for game viewing – as well as the rewarding Lake Manyara National Park. Relax and enjoy the tranquil ambiance of the lodge, which is set in a dramatic landscape known for its coffee plantations and volcanic peaks.

Enjoy private cottage accommodation and socialize at the pool after all-day game-viewing activities in the crater, which is home to the Big 5. Lake Manyara National Park, which is also within easy driving distance, is another fascinating wildlife reserve to visit: keep a look out for elephants, hippos, and tree-climbing lions that the park is famous for. And if you want some cultural insights, go on an excursion to the archaeological treasure trove of Olduvai Gorge or to a local Maasai village.

Rooms

Luxury Suite

Neptune Ngorongoro Luxury Lodge consists of substantial cottages with separate en suite bedrooms and lounge areas. Relax in your king-sized canopy bed as a fire crackles in the open fireplace, or watch the fire from one of the armchairs or the couch in the lounge.

The spacious bathrooms feature large showers with double vanities. Outside, cottages have large decks equipped with dining tables and chairs and offer stunning views of the area which you can enjoy from comfortable couches.

Facilities

Grab a book from the lodge’s library and sit by the fire in the lounge after dinner and an exciting day in the conservation area.

Revitalize your senses at the Mvua African Rain Spa. Rain in Africa gives life and this spa is no different: it utilizes water along with natural ingredients to give you a refreshing and revitalizing experience.

Relax on the viewing deck or take a dip in the swimming pool – both offer tranquil views of the Ngorongoro highlands.

Dining

The formal Acacia Restaurant offers a buffet breakfast or an a la carte menu of light and tasty Mediterranean cuisine for lunch and dinner. Most of the meals are made with locally grown ingredients from either the lodge’s vegetable garden or the nearby community.

On request, dinner may be served on the pool deck or out in the bush.
