Singita Serengeti House

During our six night stay at Singita, two were spent at Serengeti House. There were three couples in our party. The house itself has two bedrooms, then there is a cottage on either side of the house. My husband and I stayed in one of the cottages. Honestly the cottage alone would have been outstanding but we had an entire house for our group also. We had an fantastic staff that catered to our every need. Kara, Isaac, and Felix were not only professional and efficient but they were funny and informative also. Great company and service. The house is gorgeous, with elephants wandering by and we were told sometimes drinking from the pool.||The food was delicious and the table was always beautifully set with rose petals strewn about. There was a fire set in the fire pit out back each night to enjoy with a drink before dinner.||Extremely peaceful. Strongly recommend it. ||Eugen was our guide for the week. He was extremely knowledgeable about the plants and animals. He was amazing when it came to spotting animals and birds. Loved every minute!

In 2015 and 2018 we stayed the spectacular Sasakwa Lodge. During our stay in 2015 we had our farewell breakfast at the Serengeti House, a short five minute drive from the Lodge. At the time, I thought I would love to stay at the Serengeti House. When our travel friends told us they wanted to go back to Tanzania with two of their adult children and their wives, for a total of 8 in our party, I thought of the Serengeti House immendiately. A dream come true. A perfect place for a group of 8. The house has a Jr master suite as well as a master suite, only difference being the his and her bathrooms in the master suite..There are two separate beautiful guest houses on either side of the main house. A large infinity pool and multiple outside seating areas look out at the savannah and various animals saunter by during the day and night. We had our meals at the house cooked by a private chef and staff. A tennis court nearby, a private gym on the property, and a private spa complete the property. ||The staff at the Serengeti House were totally dedicated to meeting your every need. Moses Kafugo, Betty Mollel and Ngolo Saguda were amazing. They made our stay perfect in every way, including a special birthday cake and song sung by the whole staff. A highlight of our stay was the evening that they arranged for a nearby village tribal dancers to come and perform for us. Instead, we joined in with the dancers, then Moses, Betty, Ngolo joined in, followed by Peter our guide and then the chef and his staff and then the entire staff. It was amazing, we danced until we dropped!! It will be an evening that we will never forget. A special call out for our guide and good friend, Peter Chatahma. Peter was our guide in 2015 and 2018, and is a large part of why we keep coming back to Singita Tanzania. It is obvious that Peter loves what he does. He is enthusiastic, and incredibly knowledgeable about the animals, but also about the birds, the insects, the geology, the topography and the history of the Serengeti. He is easy to be with, and has this incredibly infectious laugh. we love having him share all our meals with us as we continue to talk about the incredible game drives we had that day. I could go on and on about Peter and the Singita properties, but if you want the best experience that you will never forget in Tanzania, ask for Peter and stay at a Singita property.

I stayed here with my hubby and a couple of friends. The place unbelievably beautiful. The food is to die for and the staff are fantastic. It is soo homey and comfortable that we could have stayed for weeks and not days. The weather was fantastic (end sept). The game drives were well organised with alot of excitement and adventure. I would defiantly come back here again

This was our first visit to the Serengeti after many safaris in South Africa. The scale of the landscape and wildlife is almost unbelievable and the experience we had at the Singita Serengeti House was possibly our best ever on any holiday. The accommodation and setting were first class and the staff, Ellie, Felix and Joe in particular, could not have done more for us. Special mention also to the tennis ball boys! But extra special mention to Gertrude and her catering team. No doubt about this one. Definitely the best food ever. Full stop. Sorry Mrs J! Thanks to everyone for a wonderful stay.

We were returning guests (and I have written a separate review of Explore) and the house remains an incredible place with stunning views. Service from Moses and Ngolo is excellent and warm whilst Gertrude produces delicious food with huge variety and that trio really made our stay. We didn’t get the surprises of our first visit (e.g. a breakfast in the bush) but maybe because we had stayed at Explore - although they didn’t do that there either. ||||One of the problems is that Singita has more than doubled its prices since 2017 (compared to 2020) and yet the product is exactly the same so we left feeling a little underwhelmed compared to our first visit. Maybe it’s because there wasn’t the same sense of novelty as a first visit. Don’t get me wrong this remains one of the most incredible places to visit and if money is no concern then I would fully recommend it. The first time we went I could not wait to rebook and return but this time it didn’t feel perfect (maybe our guide had something to do with that since the previous one was much better). But ultimately with a string of celebrity guests maybe they no longer need to try as hard and can charge whatever they want - first time though expensive I still thought it was good value for money this time I didn’t.

The view of the landscape from the Lodge is spectacular! High-end service from Accommodations, Meals and Wildlife guides are spectacular knowledgeable. It is in the private concession with less crowds only property vehicles are allowed in the park and off roading is also allowed.

Cannot imagine a better place to do safari.||Everything in this house is beyond spectacular! The decoratin, the activities, food, service but mostly the staff! ||Great for family, kids or friends. ||Best experience ever for all the family!

Amazing place, don't be surprised if elephants wander by the edge of your infinity pool. Best of all, Ngolo, the resident server and bartender will make sure you have a perfect experience.
