Lemala Nanyukie Tented Lodge
Location
Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
Lemala Nanyukie is a luxurious new tented camp in the central region of the Serengeti, just 45 minutes from the Seronera airstrip. The secluded camp sits alone on the grassy savanna, backdropped by rocky kopjes and shaded by giant acacia trees. The 15 airy, canvas tents are spaced well apart to maximize privacy. Each has a soaring ceiling, elegant furnishings in natural colors and materials including wood, wicker and sisal, an en suite bathroom with porcelain soaking tub plus both indoor and outdoor showers, and a private plunge pool on a spacious hardwood deck overlooking the Serengeti grasslands. Free Wi-Fi is also provided in each tent. Common areas include a large lounge and bar with a fireplace and plenty of soft couches and chairs, an outdoor viewing deck leading to a refreshing swimming pool, and indoor and outdoor dining areas. After dark, romantic lanterns illuminate the tables, walkways, pool area and campfire boma. For a special treat, enjoy a relaxing massage among the trees in the spa tent.
All Lemala properties throughout Africa are deeply committed to sustainability, and Nanyukie camp is no exception. This camp is fully solar-powered, so there are no generators to drown out the sounds of nature deep in the savanna. Meals feature locally grown produce, supporting farmers in villages surrounding the park, and the tented structures leave a very light footprint on the land. Wildlife is abundant in this area, while other vehicles are not. The annual wildebeest migration crosses near the camp twice a year, and guests frequently enjoy viewing elephants and big cats directly from their private decks. Game drives bring you quickly into the surrounding realm of cheetah, leopard, hippo, zebra, colorful birds and much more.
