Unparalleled luxury and service in the hills of Ngorongoro We can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our two-night stay at The Manor at Ngorongoro during our honeymoon. Located just 30 minutes away from the entrance to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, The Manor constantly wowed us with its beautiful grounds, fantastic lodging and attentive and caring staff. Located on the grounds of the coffee plantation, the grounds of the Manor are absolutely spectacular — offering a peaceful escape after a long day spent on a game drive. Some of our favorite memories are relaxing on the patio, smelling the roaring fire and enjoying a sundowner. (The espresso martinis are fantastic, as are the bar staff — who are a riot). The grounds are beautifully maintained and also fenced off, so no need to worry about wildlife entering the premises or escorts back to your room after dinner. The rooms themselves are absolutely wonderful, offering plenty of space, a fireplace that is lit up every night after dinner, and a luxurious clawfoot bathtub. Everything about our room was so elegant and relaxing. As for the staff, Aneth was so attentive in taking care of us at breakfast and dinner — helping us with anything that we needed. The food was immaculate, while the entire staff also treated us to a private dinner for our honeymoon on our final night — including a special assortment of our names decorated with coffee beans. Special shoutout to Altus for the fantastic wine recommendations, as well as Shariff — who was always cracking jokes whenever we saw him and was so friendly.. The Manor itself is a luxury accommodation straight out of a postcard, but it was the staff that really made our stay so memorable. We can’t recommend the Manor enough!

We had an amazing stay here. This is a beautiful setting and a wonderful way to end our Safari trip. So very lush and verdant. There are brick walking paths to get around the property. When it’s wet, be careful as they are quite slippery, especially on the small slopes. Our coffee tour here was personalized and informative. We really enjoyed learning about the history and process of growing coffee here. The roasting of the beans just for us and tasting the coffee was a fun and delicious experience. Our butlers, Hesron and John have made our stay here first class. Their unobtrusive attentiveness and friendliness is to be commended. How quickly they understood our preferences. We had a beautiful barbecue lunch in the crater. What a surprise! The grilled food was delicious as were all of the accompanying sides. The setting was beautiful, the tables, tent and amenities were fantastic. Our last evening meal by the pool was very memorable as well as the whole staff came out and serenaded us. Again our butlers created a beautiful table setting for us as well as impeccable service. We’ll be dreaming of coming back to this idyllic place. Asante sana to all!
