Tloma cottages behind agapanthus in bloom

Lodge · Karatu, Ngorongoro Highlands

Tloma Lodge

On the outskirts of Karatu, Tloma sits at the top of a valley with views over a coffee plantation to the forested walls of the Ngorongoro Crater. Colonial-style cottages are scattered through gardens full of agapanthus and flowering shrubs.

Guests find it hard to choose between a wander through the gardens and a lazy afternoon by the solar-heated pool. The restaurant cooks with locally grown produce, there is a massage cabin for tired legs, and the lodge runs on solar power. The crater gate is around 18 km away.
