Is the Chem Chem Lodge for Me?

On the eastern edge of Lake Manyara lies a place of unending loveliness.

Here is Chem Chem Lodge, ‘the sunset camp’, luxurious without being lavish.

You arrive and immediately feel an affinity with the space, the silence, the serenity.

You feel the echoes of a vintage safari lodge as urban stresses melt away.

The spacious eight tent-style suites (100 m­²) offer ultra-luxurious accommodation under the immense African skies.

Natural textures and surfaces such as wood, canvas, cotton and lava rock convey a sense of merging with your surrounds.

Fall asleep in the softest bedlinen to the distant laugh of a hyena, the click of crickets, a nightjar’s call.

Awake to the sounds of the wilderness stretching and yawning.

This exclusive retreat rests on the far western border of a exclusive wildlife concession which forms part of the Burunge Wildlife Management Area that runs between Lake Manyara and wildlife-rich Tarangire National Park.
