Hotels near Manyara

Amazing hospitality and care from the Maasai family. We felt at home.

The location was fabulous being right on the edge of Lake Manyara. With hippos, flamingoes, zebra and wilder beast right on the doorstep.

Very simple but cute, nice pool

we did not know what to expect as mwi village does not had a lot of reviews. We booked anyway and did not regret it. Later on we discovered that the reason that there were not a lot of reviews (yet) is because he only startrd the accommodation 2 years ago and its not on tripadvisor or facebook yet to have more visibility. Our stay was above our expectations. The accommodation consists of different houses, which are spacious and have a big bathroom. Mr Mwi has a lot of animals which made it even more special. He has built everything himself (over 12 years) and we admire what he did and accomplished. He is super kind, funny and also interested in you as a person. We only stayed 2 nights and regretted that we could not stay 1 night more. There is a very kind girl who makes breakfast and dinner on request. We could choose what we wanted to eat, which was great and much appreciated. In the evening we just stayed with mr mwi, had dinner on the terrace while watching the sunset and the stars. Mr mwi also helped us with some excursions. We went with him to an authentic masaai village close to the accommodation, which was great as he knew the real price (only pay per car) and he protected us from the crazy expensive tourist prices. He can also arrange other excursions such as biking around lake manyara at a very good price. so just tell him what you would like to do and he will arrange it for you. If you want a real authentic experience just book here, you will not regret it. Thank you so much Mwi! We will keep in touch 😀

The staff is SUPER attentive to all your needs and requests. The food is fantastic!!! We were shocked by the quality of service and food. The monkeys are very cute too (if you’re lucky enough to spot them)
