Amboseli Serena Safari Lodge
"This property, set beneath giant acacia trees and beside a natural spring, lies in the shadow of Kilimanjaro. "Watching hundreds of monkeys walking single file to the river to get a drink in the morning was the highlight of my vacation." Inspired by local Masai primary colors and shapes, "attractive and comfortable rooms" are furnished with African murals painted by a local artist. "The staff knew us on a first-name basis and vice versa. It was the best service and friendliest atmosphere I've ever encountered at a hotel." All meals are served at the main restaurant; "plentiful buffets include local specialties, but the food is just okay." The "unbeatable location" provides the opportunity to see elephants, lions, baboons, and more than 450 species of birds."
