I have been to many lodges and camps in East Africa and I have to say that Neptune Ngorongoro is one of the finest there is! The accommodation made of detached cottages and are huge! and very tastefully put together both in design and furnishing. I really liked the "chillout" spaces in the cottages, you have the choice of a living room with a fire place or a large timber deck overlooking the "bush" - in my view this is the height of luxury when you can retreat to your cottage and relax in your own private setting. The bedroom is very comfortable and spacious with charming features like a fire place and a four poster bed.

The service was exceptional, Manoj the General Manger and his team are very professional and friendly. They dealt with all our requests efficiently (eg last minute request to arrange a guide and car to take us to the crater). The food was also great with varied 3 course a la carte menus for lunch and dinner.

The setting is stunning, perched on a hill overlooking a natural forset and a view of the rim of the crater. We also enjoyed having a dip in the pool and massage at the spa after our excusrion to the crater.

It is also very well loacted only a 10 minute drive to the Ngorongoro concervancy and 45 minutes to Lake Manyara and a bit further south is Tarnageri Park.

If you are planning a trip to Ngorongoro I woukd certainly recommend that you traet yourself and stay here.

All was excellent.
The staff, the food, great rooms, stunning views.
No doubt it is a luxury lodge, all was in the right place, all very well cared.
One of the best experiences of the kind.

I expect to return, recommend it a lot.

What an amazing stay. We were the only people that night yet there seemed to be more than enough staff willing to help with all we needed. Not to far from the crater so one can easily stay at Neptune and drive into the crater for a day visit. The food was terrific and nothing was an effort. Polite and well spoken staff. We felt like Kings and Queens. Thank you to all at Neptune.
