Overall, Melia Serengeti was a delightful lodge and our stay was nearly perfect. Sadly they were doing controlled fires in the surrounding area meaning that there was heavy smell of smoke and burning which affected air quality significantly. If it weren’t for this the place would be perfect.

I was in Tanzania for 2 weeks and stayed at four different hotels. Melia was the best of the four. The rooms are immaculate and they think of everything. Upon arrival David greeted us, showed us to our room and explained all the important details. The staff were accommodating, friendly and helpful. The manager made sure to come around at least once a day to greet guests. Everything was perfect. Melia is a must!
