Our Hotels

 

On the eastern side of the Tarangire River opposite Tarangire Hill stands the Tarangire Sopa Lodge. The Lodge is located in the Tarangire National Park and is one of Tanzania's most easily accessible conservation areas. The lodge is about an hour's pleasant drive through an area rich in wildlife.

The Tarangire Sopa Lodge, built as a 'low profile' structure, nestles into a wooded hillside valley overlooking Tarangire Hill. Tarangire Sopa Lodge is the only luxury 'hotel-like' lodge in Tarangire. The Lodge offers spacious rooms with good views over the bush; a pleasant lounge and restaurant, and a unique swimming pool located at the edge of a rocky gorge.

The Lodge can accommodate 160 guests in 75 suites, each with wall-to-wall carpeting, a bedroom with two queen size beds and ample room for a third, lounge area with mini-bar, private bathroom with shaver sockets and hair dryer, and a private verandah which offers stunning views over the baobab-studded landscape.

 

Tarangire Sopa's unique pool

All beds are fitted with mosquito nets and access to the balcony is through sliding doors fitted with mosquito screens. Each suite has a mini-fridge, complimentary bottled water, and glasses.

The Restaurant, located in the main building, features high ceilings and terraces which provide spectacular views of the bush and resident wildlife while dining. This area is non-smoking.

The Guest Shop stocks a wide selection of gift items, clothing, film, sweets, postcards and toiletries. The Lodge's unique swimming pool has its own bar and snack kitchen and offers a refreshing interlude between game drives.

 

The park is host to a number of rarely seen species of wildlife including eleand, oryx, kudu and gerenuk. Another specialty are tree climbing pythons and thousands of resident elephants. Among the wildlife to see here, the elephant population stands out as one of the highest in Tanzania but also has the highest number of recorded bird species than any other habitat, making it a birders paradise.
