Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge glows with tranquility and peace. The design was inspired by the area's abundant bird life - swooping curves are complemented by soft, geometric patterns and stylish plaster moldings adorn the walls. Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge accommodation and public areas are housed in individual thatched circular buildings and are a tribute to local architectural traditions.

Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge has 54 guest rooms. One executive suite, 41 twin rooms and 12 triple rooms. The circular, closely-thatched rooms echo the traditional Masai 'Boma' style of construction whilst featuring a vibrant interior design concept that reflects the Masai people's abiding love of brilliant scarlet-and-indigo checked 'Shukas' (cloaks) and bright yellow, white, blue and orange beadwork.

Each room has a private veranda and breathtaking views of the shimmering reaches of the flamingo-frosted Lake. Lake Manyara Serena Safari Lodge is perched high above the Lake with endless views over the floor of the Great Rift Valley, the circular dining room and bright murals of the open-air bar area feature fabulous avian-inspired frescoes, colorful Masai artefacts and a unique domed basketwork ceiling hung with carved gourds and nest-shaped lanterns.
