Joyce made our stay here amazing -- from meeting us at the bus terminal after our trip from Dar to cooking wonderful personalized meals to the fantastic huts. She communicated with us extensively beforehand to make sure everything was perfect for our trip and so she knew what we were looking for. Joyce also arranged our safari adventure which was... More

Reading the review by Jeff J was almost word for word the same experience we had. I couldnt put it better myself. I was also a little nervous booking over email from the other side of the world and also thought it was too good to be true. I took the risk and so glad i did! We stayed here... More

Stayed here after a safari and it was the perfect retreat to recover from weeks of camping and dirtiness. Joyce was exceedingly nice and welcoming. The food was unbelievably good. Can't recommend this lodge enough.

Location was absolutely beautiful, and the food was very good.
