Mantis Lodge & Camping Site

The Mantis Lodge was recommended to us by a party of German University Students we met in Morogoro. It exceeded our expectations by far. The owner of the lodge was a lovely man and very helpful, as were his courteous staff. The lodge is well placed for visiting the National Park and the owner will arrange good inexpensive Safaris.  There are several ensuite lodges spaced around a central green square. Each lodge is well equipped with a bedroom and private bathroom, with a hot shower, wash basin, with hot water, and a toilet. Our bedroom had a double and single bed, both with mosquito nets, which we didn't need. The room was air-conditioned. All the facilities in the room were clean and tidy. There are problems with the electrical power in Tanzania, as it cuts out from time to time, but the complex has its own generator, which kicks in to power essential services like lights etc. The breakfast is excellent, well presented and served by very courteous and helpful waiting staff. The lunch and evening meals are excellent too and the menu is extensive. Each evening, in the centre of the green, there's a log fire to sit round to chat and take it easy in the cooler night air.  My wife and I are thankful to the Germans for  recommending The Mantis Lodge and we thank Nazareth and his staff for making us so welcome and looking after us so well.

Séjour de deux nuits sous une tente fournie et montée par le lodge, avec matelas/draps/couverture. Le lieu, dans le bush, est régulièrement visité par des phacochères et des impalas. Le gérant Nazareth est un hôte exceptionnel qui se met en quatre pour que chacun passe le meilleur séjour possible, jusqu’à la dernière minute.
