The newest property to be marketed by Kamili (www.kamili.co.uk ), Serengeti Soroi Lodge in Tanzania is open now.

Located on a remote hill overlooking the Western Corridor of the famed Serengeti plains, the lodge offers an excellent vantage point for the wildebeest migration as it heads North and West at this time of year.

Serengeti Soroi Lodge is set on a hill overlooking the vast plains of Musabi. The lodge has been designed to maximise the endless views and breathtaking sunsets.

Twenty-five magnificent thatched chalets complete with hardwood floors, Turkish baths and outdoor showers, are tucked away amongst the thorn Acacia trees, and are linked to the main lodge by timber walkways.

Each private tented chalet is elevated on wooden stilts, giving guests a 360 degree outlook over Musabi and the Great Wildebeest Migration. Up to 55 guests will be accommodated in five double suites and 15 double and five twin luxury thatched chalets. Facilities include an infinity rock pool and Nomadic African Spa treatments conducted from the comfort of guests’ balconies.

Activities will include game drives and walking safaris in this untouched corner of the Serengeti.

Owned by family-run Mbali Mbali Lodges and Camps, Serengeti Soroi joins a portfolio of properties set in some of the most remote and diverse areas of Tanzania including Gombe Stream, Mahale Mountains, Katavi National Park, and Tarangire National Park. Mbali Mbali has an ongoing commitment to supporting wildlife research initiatives within the National Parks and Reserves of Tanzania, including setting up and funding schools and clinics in the areas in which they operate.
