Luxury thatched-roof safari cottages at Ngorongoro Farm House overlooking lush gardens and coffee plantation at sunset
Ngorongoro Farm House - Karatu
From $466 /person
A warm, country-style retreat just minutes from the Ngorongoro Crater gate.
Ngorongoro Farm House is a relaxed lodge set on a working coffee plantation near the entrance to the Ngorongoro Conservation Area. The property feels spacious and unhurried, with large gardens, open lawns, and views towards Oldeani Mountain. Rooms are simple, comfortable, and spread across cottage-style buildings, each with a verandah or small sitting area. The main house includes a fireplace lounge, dining room, and terrace overlooking the farm. Guests often enjoy hearty meals made with ingredients from the garden, along with short walks around the plantation between game drives. Its biggest advantage is convenience: you’re close to the crater while still having a peaceful base to return to at the end of the day.
