Elewana the Manor at Ngorongoro

Step Back in Time To an Age of Grandeur Crossing the Rift Valley and climbing the steppe onto the green and rolling hills south of the Ngorongoro Crater, there lies a truly undeniable surprise and one that will be a home-away-from-home. Old World Charm, New World HospitalityElewana the Manor at Ngorongoro, located in the north west Tanzania and with its 9 luxurious cottages (18 Suites), family cottage, and magnificent main Manor House, is one of the first safari lodges of its kind to blend East African hospitality with old-world Afro-European architecture and decor. Located adjacent to the famous Ngorongoro conservation area and within a 1500-acre Arabica coffee estate, The Manor is…

African safaris come with a cup of freshly brewed arabica at Elewana The Manor at Ngorongoro, a beautiful Cape Dutch-style farmhouse that reigns over a rolling 1,500-acre working coffee plantation with commanding views of the adjacent Ngorongoro Conservation Area. Excursions to the Ngorongoro Crater and nearby Lake Manyara are augmented with horseback rides and picnics in the fields, massages in the spa, and croquet on the manicured lawn. It’s all about old-world elegance in the 19 cottage suites with double-sided woodburning fireplaces, clawfoot bathtubs, and private, garden-enveloped terraces.
