Maasai Giraffe Eco Lodge
Maasai Giraffe Eco Lodge is a charming and sustainably built lodge located near Lake Natron, at the foot of the impressive Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano and close to the village of Engaresero. Surrounded by dramatic Rift Valley landscapes, the lodge forms a true green oasis in an otherwise dry and rugged environment.
This is truly a lush oasis where you not only find comfortable lodges, but also a spacious and safe campsite. The extensive grounds offer plenty of room to camp in a secure and peaceful setting, surrounded by greenery and with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains and volcano. Whether you choose a room or prefer camping, you will experience the same welcoming atmosphere and connection with nature.
The lodge offers comfortable rooms and cottages built with natural and locally sourced materials. Each accommodation features a private en-suite bathroom and a veranda where you can relax and enjoy the surrounding landscape. The eco-friendly design, including the use of solar energy, ensures a responsible stay while maintaining comfort and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
After exploring Lake Natron, visiting Engaresero Waterfalls, or climbing Ol Doinyo Lengai, you can unwind in the garden or take a refreshing dip in the swimming pool. The restaurant serves freshly prepared meals with both local and international influences, often using regional ingredients. The area around the lodge is home to various wildlife, and it is not uncommon to see giraffes roaming nearby. Watching these impressive animals in their natural habitat, sometimes close to the lodge, makes your stay here even more special and unforgettable.
Thanks to its unique location near Lake Natron, Maasai Giraffe Eco Lodge is a perfect base for combining nature, adventure, wildlife, and cultural encounters with the local Maasai community. It is a welcoming place where sustainability, comfort, and authentic Tanzanian experiences come together.
