🌍 Tanzania

📍 Tarangire

Sangaiwe Mbuyu Tented Lodge is the sister lodge of Sangaiwe Tented, built under the Bougainvillea group. With similar rates (~$300–$340 high season; ~$180–$200 low), it caters to the same market: mid-range travelers wanting Tarangire’s elephants, baobabs, and dry-season game viewing without splurging. Slightly smaller and more intimate than its sibling, it appeals to couples and small groups.

Comparisons: Same tier: Burunge Tented Lodge (mid-range; further from gate) and Tarangire Simba (upper mid-range). Step up: Lemala Mpingo Ridge (premium luxury). Step down: Country Lodge (but further away).

Safari context: Positioned to give guests more time in Tarangire and less on transfers, particularly valuable in dry season when elephants gather along the Tarangire River.

Rooms

Raised-platform tents with king/twin beds, en-suite bathrooms, mosquito nets, and verandas. Shared mess area, pool, and fire pit. Rustic but comfortable.
