"Mbalageti Lodge review"
We were there for 3 days and the first day was idyllic. However on days 2 and 3 a tour group of over 30 arrived made up of 50% adults and 50% children. They sat on two tables at meals and made a huge amount of noise - which completely ruined the ambience of the outside dining overlooking the Serengetti below. Everyobne else asked to be moved as far away from them as possible!.
The food was good on day one but after the large group arrived they had to resort to buffets at every meal which meant the standard went down. After lunch when most people wanted to relax for a while the children went to the pool and played 'Marco Polo' ( for those who dont know this involves shouting at the top of your voice ).
A wonderful place but unless you are told there will be no large groups staying at the time i would not advise going here." See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 4n in Zanzibar; 3n in Kenya

Our guide's accommodation apparently was not very comfortable, compared with the Rhino Lodge and we were unable to dine with him in the evening." See all these reviews: 7n in Tanzania
"Mbalageti Lodge review"
You have asked about the loocation of the lodge - I think that this was good but depends on the time of year. The migration was finished at the time of our trip (August) which was a bit disappointing but there was still plenty to see." See all these reviews: 5n in Tanzania; 4n in Zanzibar
