Lodge Overview

The totally eccentric but equally delightful and luxurious Tarangire Treetops Lodge is situated among the giant baobab trees on the outskirts of the Tarangire National Park. You will find this magic Neverland at the end of a long road that winds its way through a stunningly beautiful patchwork of grassy savanna and looming baobab trees. Like a burst of tawny fireworks, leaping impala explode from the bush as you turn into the Lodge's main entrance. Upon first glace at the surreal surroundings, you will feel like you've suddenly stepped foot into a fairytale.

Maasai warriors greet you warmly upon your arrival and guide you to Reception. The reception area is set atop a flight of stairs and is delightfully built into and around a massive baobab tree. Comfortable benches are situated around a delightful fire pit in the cozy sunken lounge underneath the baobab's canopy. An open-air dining veranda offers panoramic views of the western sky which is streaked in crimson stains by a sinking sun. An elephant basks quietly in the waterhole nearby, while an azure infinity pool in the foreground laps serenely against the space between.

Accommodations

You'll feel like Alice in Wonderland as you are escorted to your own whimsical tree-house suite, built high in the arms of a giant baobab tree. There are only twenty of these marvelous tree-house suites spaced throughout the entire property to ensure a personal and intimate experience for each guest.

Accommodations are situated at an ample distance from each other to guarantee maximum privacy. Your own private suite is a lavish penthouse, set high on a platform in the leafy canopy of the baobab, truly "in the treetops". You will climb a winsome spiral staircase to enter a spacious retreat, designed in an overwhelmingly natural theme with an unexpected splash of edgy urban style. Indigenous materials are utilized throughout the Lodge in the form of thatched coverings, wicker furnishings, and heavy lumber, while contemporary décor includes clean lines, dual raised washbasins, and double metallic showers.

A sunshade of thatched awning stretches over a beautiful hard wood floor. Your crescent shaped suite is completely open-sided with nets and canvas flaps, affording a stunning panoramic view of the grounds below and beyond. The charming furniture is fashioned from the rugged timber of old wooden dhows with past stories of surf and sea. The yawning cathedral ceiling is supported by substantial wooden poles which look like tree-trunks themselves. Delightfully, many of the suites actually have the gnarled branches of their baobab host running through their upper walls, creating a truly unique atmosphere.

Activities

Because of this Lodge's location just outside of the National Park boundary, you may choose to participate in a unique night game drive after enjoying a delicious dinner. Or cozy up in the open-air library and lose yourself in a good book on Africa. Take a swim, indulge in sundowners, or snuggle up next to a blazing fire in the main lounge. The options are infinite, and there is no wrong answer at Tarangire Treetops.

But for now, just pour yourself a drink and listen to the live symphony of birds all around you. Bask in the dying crimson embers of a marvelous Tarangire sunset. Revel in the privacy and solitude of your leafy natural surroundings. Your private treetops suite offers the perfect retreat to simply be.
