AndBeyond Grumeti Serengeti River Lodge

Owned and loved by the well-known AndBeyond brand, Grumeti Serengeti River Lodge is another world-class and award-winning safari lodge in a spectacular setting for a genuine Serengeti Safari in Tanzania, land of prolific wildlife and exquisite vistas. 

Voyage2Africa offers you the best safari accommodation in Africa at all andBeyond hotels and lodges, promising first-class amenities and five star service wherever you go in East Africa. This Tanzania lodge is located in the far corners of western Serengeti on a tributary of the picturesque Grumeti River. 

The lodge has a distinct angular appeal in its thoughtful design and dramatic merging into the riverine environment. But is is ultra-modern and it is geometric, clean cut and upmarket. Huge elaborate chandeliers light up the open-sided bar area at night as guests chat about their day.

Grumeti takes the environment into account so guests feel enthralled when they first enter this very square and angular main deck area with its extensive views. Huge, polished decks and a dazzling infinity swimming pool all sweep down to a cosy fire area on the river – the central focus and offering ongoing views of the natural hippo pools below. 

Choose to game view all day from this deck as you swim and relax between exhilarating game view outings such as drives, walks and birding excursions. Grumeti is so close to the water that wildlife sightings are often stupendous and the night sounds captivating. 

Enjoy 10 of the most elegant modern suites in safari lodge history – these opulent suites are made for celebrities and royalty they are so fancy but there is also one family suite so bring the kids for a memorable and lavish time in Africa. Vast beds, extensive ensuite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers, dazzling private plunge pools on wide decks and extravagant designer furnishings to take your breath away. 

The family suite features another smaller bedroom, swimming pool and deck plus plenty of seating room and décor comes in muted shades of browns, greys, creams and charcoal, woven baskets and cotton rugs placed strategically too. 

When it comes to the food, no stone has been left unturned – delicious fresh and wholesome foods satisfy your senses from first course to dessert, all exquisitely presented on tasteful plates, outside on the deck. This modern lodge has a modern take on safari food, offering pizzas, tapas and specialty fish dishes too, not just grilled venison and thick Tanzanian porridge as in the original safari days!

Watch the chef at work in an open plan and state of the art interactive kitchen and chat with a glass of wine about recipes and ingredients. Workouts are in at the gym, pampering is a treat at the spa – all designer, modern and made for discerning guests who like to look after themselves. 

The main reason for being here though, are the game drives and bush walks so get out those hats and walking shoes and join passionate game rangers and trackers into the heart of the Serengeti Plains to see more and feel more of this great landscape.
