Vijiji Center lodge and Safari

Bad conditions and service There was no hot water for the shower. The bathroom floor was flooded. Food at the restaurant was expensive and grassy. We could not eat the wrap we ordered, as it was dripping oil. The hotel was empty and with strange vibes. I would not recommend for this price. Other options around are better. We did not come back after our safari.

The warm, welcoming staff is the heart of this establishment. Each member works hard to make sure your stay is a pleasant one. Loved staying in the garden cottages - the well-tended landscaping is delightful. The restaurant and bar staff were the best - even serenaded one of our friends to celebrate her birthday. Asante sana for an unforgettable stay.

We were on the 9 day safari which took us to Tarangire park, Ngorongoro conservation area and the Serengeti. Our experiences were well beyond anything I could have imagined. Not just the diversity of the animals but the sheer numbers that we saw were amazing. The accommodation on the safari was excellent - the tents were well set up and comfortable and the food was mostly top notch. We stayed a few days at Vijijicenter as well. The grounds are beautiful and relaxing and the staff are amazing - friendly and helpful. We were in one of the small huts which could use a bit if upgrading. The shower just had a small curtain separating it from the toilet area so the entire floor was covered in water. Perhaps one of those long handled squeegees would have helped. The rooms could also use additional seating (only one chair in our room). Thanks Sandra, Suma. and Amos for a truly once in a lifetime experience.
