Serena Mountain Village, Arusha
tucked away in the depths of a tree-shaded coffee plantation,
Serena Mountain Village offers a haven of calm and serenity just outside the hustle and bustle of Arusha, Tanzania’s premier ‘Safari Town’.

Nestling in the heart of a coffee plantation on the shores of Lake Duluti, Serena Mountain Village is the perfect place to relax before or after experiencing the adventure of a Serena Safari.

Rooms
The stone-built rooms are housed in a half-moon of traditional ‘rondavel’ circular dwellings with views over a slope descending to the lake’s shores.

Charmingly appointed with spacious bathrooms, individual verandas and curved French windows giving views onto the tranquil lakeside beauty, the rooms have been decorated in the traditional safari style.

Dining
The dining room overlooks the lake’s flower-fringed slopes and features an open-air bar area, a relaxed candlelit atmosphere and menu choices that include traditional safari favourites and internationally themed menus alike.

The activities on offer at Serena Mountain Village include:

Morning bird walks around Lake Duluti with our resident naturalist

An extensive selection of nature trails looping around the lake and through the shaded groves of neighbouring coffee plantations, with picnic stops and a unique ‘coffee tasting’ session

Mountain biking around the lake and coffee plantation circuits

Walking and jogging around the lake and plantation circuits

Canoeing on the lake in sturdy 2-man canoes

Trips to the craters, alkaline lakes, forests and peaks of nearby Arusha National Park

Mountain Village serves as an ideal base camp from which to conquer the snow- capped peaks of Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain (5, 895m)

For those who prefer a slightly more unusual but equally rewarding climb, there is also nearby Mount Meru, Africa’s 5th highest mountain, which offers endless opportunities for climbing, hiking, trekking or walking

A number of villages in the Arusha region belong to the Cultural Tourism Programme and offer guests an unprecedented opportunity to experience the local people’s lifestyle by means of visits to such venues as; Maasai homesteads, traditional cattle markets or women’s handicrafts cooperatives

Atmospheric ‘Sundowners’ idyllically staged on wooded cliffs above the lake’s mirrored waters as clouds of white egret come home to roost in their forest home

Wildlife and cultural talks, videos and film shows
