Tarangire Sopa Lodge

Nestled seamlessly into the expansive Tarangire National Park, Tarangire Sopa Lodge is designed to harmonize with its natural surroundings.

It discreetly inhabits the terrain dotted with kopjes, ancient baobab trees, and grassy landscapes—a habitat renowned for hosting the largest concentration of elephants in Africa.

As you embark on a tranquil and extensive game drive amidst diverse wildlife and the seemingly endless stretches of African landscapes, a subtle elevation reveals the lodge below.

Tarangire Sopa Lodge offers an immediate connection with the surroundings, allowing guests to enjoy close encounters with the numerous elephants that roam the area.

This unique lodge ensures a blend with nature’s grandeur, creating a memorable experience in the heart of Tarangire National Park.

Rooms

The lodge boasts 75 expansive rooms, each featuring a private lounge upon entry, equipped with a minibar.

Every room is furnished with two queen-size beds adorned with mosquito nets.

Notably, four of these rooms are designed to accommodate individuals with physical challenges, while another four offer interconnecting options for families.

The guest suites, arranged in a circular layout with high, conical roofs, extend on either side of the communal areas.

It’s important to note that, due to the absence of any fencing around the lodge, wild animals have the freedom to move in and out as they, please.

Although rare, encounters with elephants may slightly delay your transit to and from your room.

For safety reasons, our guards will accompany you during nighttime movements.

Once inside your room, you’ll be delighted by its spaciousness, airy ambiance, and scenic views from its sheltered veranda.

Featuring a mini-bar, two double beds, and an exceptionally roomy and well-appointed bathroom, you might find yourself wishing for an extended stay.

Features

Upon entering, you are greeted with a scented towel and a refreshing welcome drink, drawing attention to the grandeur of the lobby.

The expansive space features gleaming marble floors, vibrant hand-woven carpets, and a remarkably high ceiling.

Ascending a short staircase leads to the lounge and bar, adorned with floor-to-ceiling windows, an outdoor terrace for evening sundowners, and a pool area behind the bar for a potential game of pool.

On the opposite side of the reception lobby sits the coffee shop, where a variety of Tanzanian highland brews can be savored alongside freshly baked pastries.

Just adjacent, a flight of steps descends into the dining room, offering a delightful culinary experience beneath an intricately painted mural on a high table.

The floor itself is a masterpiece with its multi-colored timbers and copper nails.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the restaurant features a terrace along one side, providing a scenic breakfast setting overlooking the park’s tree-dotted, grassy plains.

Weather permitting, lunch is served by the swimming pool on the lodge’s lowest level, situated next to a dry river bed that fills during rainy seasons.

Dinner unfolds on the dining room’s extensive outdoor patio every other night, creating an unforgettable experience beneath Africa’s star-filled sky.
