Ngorongoro Farm House

My 3 adult children and I stayed in a stand-alone cottage for 3 nights that consisted of 2 rooms (Chui and Mambo, I love that the rooms are names of animals in Swahili). Beautiful decor, most comfortable beds with mosquito nets, and the best thing was the fireplace. It was chilly for the nights we were there in early-June, so we requested they light the fireplace after dinner. Such a special treat to enjoy the fire and warm up the room. Another treat is the turn-down service and on cool nights they put a hot water bottle in your bed! So heavenly!||The property is absolutely beautiful and you can take a tour of the coffee farm and walk around the property. You can choose to eat on the large outdoor balcony (with fire pits for cool evenings) or inside. For breakfast there are buffet items and also a made-to-order station for crepes and eggs. For lunch they packed to-go bags (you choose the items) on safari days, and one day we returned early and had lunch outside on the expansive grass area and they set up a table for us with a tablecloth and brought everything to us. For dinner there are buffet items and a made-to-order noodle/rice stir-fry station. I have lots of food allergies and they were always prepared with a clean wok and spatula in case I wanted something made-to-order. The fruit and dessert tables were expansive and a wonderful selection. We had the best mangos and papayas here.||The staff are wonderful and so accommodating. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Gorgeous farmhouse close to Ngorongoro crater. Food was incredible and lot of produce sourced from the farmhouse. The staff are all very attentive and friendly. Variety of food items available for packed picnic lunch was very nice. Hotwater bottle for turndown service was a wonderful touch. We also enjoyed the happy hour daily.

This hotel is amazing! The garden is beautiful, the food is delicious and fresh (everything is grown on site!) and the staff is simply the best! Elizabeth was always so helpful and kind. I’m already planning another trip just to come back here and spend more time at this hotel!

We had a lovely stay at the farmhouse. The accommodation is spacious and comfortable. We had marabou storks nesting on the tree above our lodge. It was a great experience to see them. We enjoyed the guided tour of the farm and learning about how they grow the coffee and the vegetables served in the restaurant. The food was wonderful and like other travellers I thoroughly recommend the stir fry and the bbq. We also enjoyed G&Ts and snacks as part of the happy hour. The staff are lovely and always at hand to help. The farm is close to the crater where we had the most amazing safari. A wonderful retreat and we would love to return in the future.

This place was fantastic! The only reason I rated four instead of five were because we had nightly visitors on our roof and didn’t sleep all that well :-) But other than that, it was so nice!! The grounds are just lovely with the gardens and sunsets. Extremely friendly staff, especially Musa! He paid such close attention to our every need and had a great sense of humor. His morning latte was such a special treat! We took a tour of the coffee plantation and it was so interesting. Free happy hour and cocktails were a nice addition after a long day of game drive! Would highly recommend this place.

The Farmhouse was a wonderful place to stay. I wish we had more than one night here. We came here after our last day on Safari from the Crater. We stayed in cabin Pundamilia that is close to the main area which was nice. The room is very spacious and there is a very nice deck. The bed was comfortable. There were lots of outlets, all international plugs. The pool was refreshing after a day on safari.|Happy hour was nice. We got our complimentary drink and snacks and sat with a view of the garden. |We went on the coffee tour that was very interesting. Wandering the gardens was beautiful with lots of birds flying around.|Staff were very friendly. Meals, buffet style were delicious, lots of variety.

The farm house was SO beautiful. We loved touring the gardens and coffee plantation. What an amazing operation being done in such a sustainable way. The rooms were very comfortable and the staff was friendly and welcoming. Musa was especially great as our waiter during the stay. He instantly remembered our names and our morning coffee order.

Wow! What can I say about this place other than it was a great stay! The whole staff was great but Elizabeth was incredible at making our stay comfortable and memorable! The place is all farm to table which made the food delicious!
