Entamanu Ngorongoro
Luxury
Overview
Entamanu Ngorongoro is perched high on the wild side of the Ngorongoro Crater rim, a thoughtfully designed refuge in this elemental place, from which to explore the unique highland environment in which it sits. Surrounded by the soaring peaks of dormant volcanic hills and the ebb and flow of Maasai pastoralist life, this is a place to explore beyond the hustle and bustle of the main tourist trail at the Crater. Not only to visit the Crater, but to understand it as part of a wider environment.
Meaning ‘circle’ in Maa, the language of the Maasai, Entamanu is the perfect name for the understated luxury camp on the Ngorongoro Crater edge. Seven large en-suite cottage-style rooms, two of which are family units made cosy with heaters, warm textiles and sheepskin look across the iconic Crater view, with a backdrop of ancient acacia trees. The style here is as unique as the location - everything is carefully handcrafted locally to the highest standard. Spend a evening by the cosy fire in the central lounge, soak in the relaxing atmosphere and share your crater tales from the day with the other guests.
Emantaru is the only place in the world where the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti Plains can be seen from the same spot. There’s nothing tame about this location - the high altitude sun has some real heat and the wind can be biting and sometimes noisy. Nomad Tanzania have taken up the challenge to create a camp that makes the most of the extraordinary view while providing warmth and shelter from the elements. Every design detail has been considered in light of this.

Cottage-style Rooms
The seven cottage-style rooms, two of which are family units ideal for families with children, have been carefully designed with this in mind. Think textured wool, down duvets and heaters which provide warmth in the sleeping tents against the chilly nights. Big private verandas wrap around the front of the rooms providing the ideal place to sit and marvel at the view. All of the rooms have views into the Crater, with immense Serengeti views to be enjoyed from the other side of camp. The interiors are of sustainably sourced wood and everything within the camp is locally sourced and made by talented Tanzanian artisans.
