Vuma Hills

We had a nice stay at Vuma Hills. The room was clean and spacious, the food was great, also the lunch boxes. Staff was friendly. Advice to the staff: a welcome at the parkingplace when you arrive or when you come back from a game drive with a refreshing towel would be great. Saying goodbye from the parking place when you leave would also be nice and it makes the experience more personal. This is quite common in other lodges. Here you walk to the restaurant and will be greeted by the staff there. Location is on top of a hill and from the restaurant you have a wonderful view. From our tent we mostly saw trees. Be careful: in wet conditions the steep paths in the camp are very slippery because of algae. We chose to walk next to the paved path. We visited in May and it was still rain season, it was rather humid in the area. In the tent the sheets and towels were a bit damp. When we arrived there was no room to stay for our driver-guide. That was really not OK, we booked months ahead and now he had to go back to Mikumi (1 hour drive) for the first night. The camp was undergoing renovations and most driver-guide sleeping places were used for the workmen and storing building materials. Luckily a place was found for him for the 2nd and 3rd night after we spoke to the manager and reservation office. There is a nice little swimming pool, great to have a dip after a warm and dusty day.

Nice accommodation, great food and great staff. Stairs are an integral part of this location. Quite different from some of the parks we visited as the habitat was considerably more dense and the animals more difficult to spot. New experience with the "bush babies" at the camp. A couple of photos were enough for me

An amazing place to stay inside Mikumi national park, where you’ll be given a 5 star service with food, rooms and drinks. Rooms are very well designed, you can immerse yourself into nature. Friendly staff, clean rooms and a perfect place to get away from the city!
