Meliá Serengeti Lodge

Across our trip to Africa last month, my partner and I stayed at three Melia properties: Melia Zanzibar, Melia Serengeti and Melia Ngorongoro. While all were wonderful, Melia Serengeti was without a doubt our favourite. It was unforgettable, breathtakingly luxurious, and exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment you arrive, you are greeted by the most incredible views across the Serengeti. It was absolutely jaw-dropping. I couldn't stop saying "wow". It feels surreal to find yourself in such a luxurious lodge right in the middle of one of the world's most spectacular wildlife ecosystems. The entire property was immaculate, beautifully maintained, and every detail felt carefully considered. What really made Melia Serengeti stand out for us was that the service matched the view. In our opinion, there is no point having one without the other, and they delivered both perfectly. As Melia members, we were made to feel so valued and special throughout our stay. It was the small things that made all the difference. The highlight of our entire trip was the bush dinner my partner surprised me with one evening. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how much care had gone into making it special. John (the manager at Melia Serengeti), greeted us personally on arrival and was such a genuinely lovely host. He introduced us to the staff who would be looking after us, made sure we were completely happy, and really set the tone for the evening. It was those thoughtful touches that made such a difference. After that, we were left in the very capable hands of Joseph, our bush dinner host, who was fantastic throughout the evening. We chatted away with him all night and thoroughly enjoyed his company. Combined with the incredible setting, delicious food and wonderful atmosphere, it became one of those memories we will never forget. We felt like royalty and certainly ate like it too. We loved trying the Swahili dishes on our trip, and there was always a fantastic selection of wines and spirits to enjoy. The staff were exceptional from start to finish, always eager to help and making everything feel effortless. It was such a luxury not having to plan a thing because they had every detail under control. A very special mention has to go to our Safari guide, Herbert, who was simply the BEST. He was knowledgeable, friendly, flexible, and went above and beyond to make sure we were always comfortable, happy, and well looked after. We genuinely felt cared for throughout our entire stay and a massive part of that was down to Herbert - a true credit to the Melia Collection. Thank you to John, Herbert, Mosses, Joseph, David, and everyone at Melia Serengeti. You made our stay so special and we would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for the perfect combination of adventure, luxury, and relaxation. Asante Sana! Hannah & Jack

Creo que es muy difícil que exista una cadena hotelera en el mundo con dos hoteles que puedas visitar en un mismo viaje que sean tan impresionantes y de tan alto nivel como el Meliá Serengeti y el Meliá Ngorongoro. Teniendo la fortuna de haber podido conocer hoteles muy impresionantes del mundo, no exagero si digo que estos dos son de los mejores hoteles que he conocido. Pasar unos días en el Meliá Serengeti fue una de las mejores decisiones de nuestro viaje por Tanzania. El hotel combina el gran lujo con la naturaleza salvaje de manera impecable. Las vistas desde la terraza de las habitaciones y la piscina Infiniti a la sabana, son espectaculares. Las habitaciones son amplias, muy cómodas y decoradas con un gusto exquisito, manteniendo ese toque africano auténtico. El personal fue extraordinariamente amable; siempre atentos, sonrientes y dispuestos a hacer que cada detalle fuera perfecto, y es que lo que diferencia los buenos hoteles de los que son excelentes, es que trabajan para que cada detalle, por muy pequeño que sea, esté perfectamente calculado, sorprenda al cliente y se sienta cómodo durante toda su estancia. Culpables de tan maravillosa experiencia están tanto Jon, como Martin, quienes nos dieron un trato excepcional durante toda la estancia, así como el resto de personal del hotel incluidos los Masái. La comida, tanto el desayuno como la cena, superó nuestras expectativas. Y no quiero dejar de recomendar la oportunidad de hacer la experiencia del walking safari que ofrece el hotel. Poder andar con un Masái y un Ranger y encontrarte con una manada de búfalos a menos de 30 metros, es algo que nunca olvidaremos.

A perfect stay for Serengeti. Great hospitality and great food. Will definitely come back!

Hotel incredibile e servizio eccellente. Soggiorno molto piacevole con amici. Mi hanno fatto sentire come a casa!

Las vistas son de infarto,amé que desde el bar y las habitaciones puedas tener aún una vista directa de los animales! La atención impecable, y la comida del restaurante muy buena.
