Property Overview

Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge is a historic, family-owned retreat set within 50 acres of forest and tropical gardens on the slopes of Mount Meru. Created from an early twentieth-century farmhouse, the lodge blends heritage character with peaceful natural surroundings.

Guests can relax beside the swimming pool, enjoy homemade meals or wander through the grounds while listening for birds and watching monkeys among the trees. Its garden rooms, suites and private cottage accommodation provide comfortable options for couples, families and small groups.

WHY SAFARIHQ CHOOSES IT

We recommend Ngare Sero Mountain Lodge for guests seeking more than a conventional overnight stay in Arusha. Its forest, gardens and peaceful lakes create a genuine sense of escape, while the historic farmhouse and family-owned character give the lodge a warm and individual atmosphere.

It is an especially appealing choice for travellers who want time to rest after an international flight or unwind before travelling home. Couples can enjoy the quiet garden rooms and suites, while cottages and multi-bedroom accommodation provide additional space and privacy for families.
