What a great lodge to begin a most remarkable journey in Tanzania! The buildings are terrific in Maasai style. But what is the most important thing: its run by the Maasai and lovely taken care of! We loved to sit on our terrace and watch Kilimanjaro. We enjoyed the food, drinks and hospitality. We will come again, is gods willing!

We had a wonderful 3 days at the Original Maasai Lodge and we enjoyed learning more about the Maasai people who are very happy and outgoing people. Very peaceful place to stay in Tanzania. Located between the world famous Kilimanjaro mountain and the the Mauro mountains. Our chef prepared really delicious food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The portion were very big, fresh and tasty and included in our booking. We had a fantastic staff: Mariam and Leah our waitress and bartender are very friendly and helpful. Lowassa and Phillip our drivers and guides were a lot of fun and informative. We had a super fun Maasai dance every evening around sunset followed by Maasai TV (large campfire and storytelling). A nice dinner was next. We had a nice mud cottage with running water and electricity. Everything was fantastic and we really enjoyed ourselves in the wonderful clean pool. We enjoyed a great game drive before going to the airport.

This a totally unique place to stay and one of the highlights of our trip so far It is run by the local maasai and is a community project which generates multiple benefits for the local Maasai community It is in a remote location between Meru and Kilimanjaro reached by some very rough roads - Landcruiser needed. You do wonder where you are going but it is well sign posted. The welcome is warm colourful and musical ! The accommodations are clean, well provided with fantastic views The staff are all relaxed, friendly and very welcoming. The free morning guided bush walk and the evening spear throwing are also a high light The food is good and the Maasai BBQ around the fire with Maasai TV not to be missed. Two nights here is needed and a great place to chill out and relax Safaris are great but this provides another dimension to your visit to Tanzania

I recently had the privilege of staying at the Original Maasai Lodge Africa Amini Life, and it was an unforgettable experience. The standout feature of this lodge is undoubtedly its outstanding staff. From the moment I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by the Maasai team, who were not only incredibly friendly but also highly knowledgeable about the local culture and wildlife. The lodge's location is simply amazing. It is nestled within the pristine landscapes of Africa, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding wilderness. It truly provides a sense of immersion in the heart of nature, with wildlife roaming freely in the vicinity. The atmosphere at the lodge is both tranquil and captivating. The traditional Maasai decor and design create an authentic and inviting ambiance. It's the perfect place to unwind and disconnect from the hustle and bustle of modern life. One of the most memorable experiences during my stay was the walking tour near wildlife animals. It was a rare opportunity to get up close to nature's most magnificent creatures, guided by Maasai warriors who shared their deep understanding of the ecosystem. It's an experience that I will cherish forever. Last but not least, the food at the Original Maasai Lodge is truly premium. The culinary offerings are a delightful blend of local flavors and international cuisine, prepared with care and presented beautifully. Each meal was a culinary journey that added to the overall experience. In conclusion, the Original Maasai Lodge Africa Amini Life is a remarkable destination that seamlessly combines outstanding staff, an amazing location, a great atmosphere, unforgettable wildlife encounters, and premium dining. It's a place where you can connect with nature, experience the rich Maasai culture, and create lasting memories. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and enriching African safari experience.

Went beyond our expectations, it was the most beautiful place we've ever stayed in, the staff are incredible, attentive and made the stay 6* From morning safari walk, too spear throwing, maasai dance and group get together around the firepit. The whole time, we felt like we were living experiencing maasi Village, with the exception of the level of subtle luxury and good standard of food. All the best from maasai White Boy and Mum Charlie (our names)

Everything! The perfect ending of our trip in Tanzania / Zanzibar... A unique experience where you get an impression of the life of Maasai... Off course everything is adapted to the needs of a tourist traveler, but nevertheless the authenticity and details are overwhelming... and the view from your room when you wake up is simply amazing! The crew have a lovely energy and they take you on a bushtour, spearthrowing, ... and the food is also amazing! The fact that this project supports Maasai and education only makes it more unique!

the place is one of a kind. the staff was AMAZING and everyone went above and beyond. the food was delicious and although location isnt ideal, this place is an experience so dont expect to stay here and like site see everyday elsewhere, doesnt make much sense. although they offer a lot of excursions through the lodge. we stayed for 3 nights and 2 days and hiked Kilimanjaro while staying here. we went during a dry season and it was cold but that was to be expected given the lodging style

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such great hospitality and warmth, that we felt home right away. The lodge is set beautifully in the hills between Mount Meru & Mount Kilimanjaro and the room - a Masaai Boma - was beautifully decorated with lots of love, warm water and very comfy beds. There are lots of activities that you can do; we arrived around 11 am after a night-flight and immediately were greeted with coffee, Tea & self-made cookies. In the afternoon we took a Bush walk with a Masaai guide and walked close to giraffes, saw gazelles, etc. The spear-throwing competition later on and the Masaai singing and dancing was really fun and very entertaining - and the best, happiest that we witnessed during out trip to Tanzania. The food was very delicious, self-cooked and included some local & traditional specialties. Overall, this was such a wonderful stay - we wished we had stayed for more than just one night. An absolute recommendation on your Tanzania trip!!!! Thank you to the entire team for such a wonderful time!

The location was surreal- scenic views of the surrounding savanna with acacia trees dotted all around and Mount Meru in the distance. Kilimanjaro was shy so we didnt get to see that, but it was still awesome. The Staff were absolutely hospitable, always lending a helping hand. They were extra patient and friendly with our four year old who turned five there (we got a cake made and they sang in Swahili for him. Food was great as well. And learning about the Maasai way of living and community projects was the cherry on the top. The experience was just life-changing.

We are surprised by the form of construction and location of this building, reminiscent of a traditional Maasai village. The manager of the hotel was very welcoming - we received a surprise, breakfast in the bush at sunrise. It is worth staying there for more than one night, there are many attractions such as Masai dancing.

Africa Amini managed to make an incredibly authentic experience that was still totally approachable. The traditional huts we stayed in were impeccably clean. There were no bugs, the temperature was perfect and the views of Kilimanjaro were out of this world. The Maasai were welcoming, genuinely happy to have us there and not playing any role other than who they truly were. It was so immersive and such a learning experience. All this and yet still the food was modern, safe and delicious. The best part was knowing it was a socially responsible, eco-friendly experience that helped local school children and the Maasai community at large. If you go to Tanzania and dont stay here, youre missing out just as much as if you didnt see the Serengeti.
