"Rhotia Valley Tented Lodge review"

1 night Arrived 26 Apr 2013
"A unique experience.

This lodge is good with great staff. Any more rain would have made the road unpassable and created significant logistic problems. The day we left we got out ok but you would be unlikely to be able to drive in.

Need to improve road infrastructure for security of access" See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania

"Very nice time at Rhotia."

2 nights Arrived 19 Jul 2012
"Very good food, reasonable drink prices. Tent was comfortable with a great view. We did not have electricity or hot water one morning, which was frustrating as it gets cold up there in the morning and evenings.

We did have a great morning at the Children's Home, playing soccer and spending time with the children.
Nice honeymoon presentation on our bed.

Overall, great service, great location, and great food." See all these reviews: 10n in Zanzibar; 7n in Tanzania
