You’ll know how the Mandhari Lodge got its name when you visit. In the Swahili language, ‘Mandhari’ means ‘view’ or ‘scenery,’ and you’ll enjoy both from the lodge’s elevated perch on the Manyara Escarpment, part of the Great Rift Valley.
Nine stunning, glass-fronted, and one honeymoon suite make up this wonderful property. All suites and villas at Mandhari Lodge have an unobstructed view across the dreamy landscape below. Eco-friendly, family-friendly, and accessible, this is where you’ll find the warmest of welcomes.
As well as enjoying those unbeatable views, each suite has a glass front, comfortable furnishings, and light, bright, stylish furnishings. There is free Wi-fi and somewhere to charge your batteries.
The family suite at Mandhari Lodge can accommodate up to 4 people, and the Nasikia Villa can sleep up to 8. (It contains four bedrooms and has a private pool.)
The objective is to always provide healthy and balanced meals – and always delicious, of course! Special diets can be catered for with advance notice.
The intimate dining room at Mandhari Lodge is the perfect place for home-cooked meals, and if you fancy a private sundowner in a special location away from the camp. Enjoy the home-baked bread, cakes, and pastries. Why not try a glass of fine South African wine from our selection at dinner?
