Our lodge sits within five lushly landscaped acres nestled on the edge of Karatu town, surrounded by rolling hills reaching up to the coffee growing area of Oldeani and the forest of Ngorongoro. Garden paths lead to twelve double cottages surrounded by green lawns, hedged by brightly flowered bougainvillea, tropical plants and trees. Birds and butterflies feel right at home in the garden, as will you.
