Vista eccezionale sul parco dalle camere, servizio impeccabile come anche la pulizia e i pasti. Unico suggerimento: sarebbe utile un cestino per la spazzatura in camera.

It's hard to believe this place is considered a budget lodge. The park view is breathtaking and unforgettable. Also, many animals come to visit often. The facilities are nice and clean, the food is great and the staff is friendly, helpful and speak great english. Prices are also fair. We've never stayed in a place like this and highly recommend Pumba to everyone.

Pumba Safari Cottages is an absolute treasure! The location is fantastic — right by Lake Manyara National Park — giving you that feeling of being surrounded by nature yet with all the comforts you need. The cottages are clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts and staff are exceptional — warm, welcoming, and always going the extra mile to make sure you feel at home. The food was another highlight: fresh, tasty, and plentiful, with a touch of local flavor. What we loved most was the peaceful atmosphere — it’s the kind of place where you can truly relax and recharge after a safari day. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic, cozy, and friendly stay near Manyara. We would definitely return!

An Unforgettable Stay at Safari Cottage Lodge! My experience at Safari Cottage Lodge was absolutely incredible! The staff were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable. The cottages were clean, cozy, and beautifully designed to blend perfectly with the natural surroundings. I woke up each morning to the sounds of nature and stunning views — it truly felt like a retreat in the heart of the wild. The food was delicious and freshly prepared, and the guided tours were both exciting and informative. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful yet adventurous getaway. I can’t wait to come back!
