Accommodation Venue - Kirawira Camp
( Hotel Accommodation in Serengeti National Park
/ Tanzania / Southern Africa )
Standing high on the bluff of a bush-cloaked ridge,
commanding panoramic views over the endlessly rolling reaches
and volcanic reefs of the Serengeti National Park, Kirawira Camp
is the epitome of colonially-styled safari luxury. Designed in
typically Edwardian style, it features an elegant central meeting
tent evocatively furnished with a tasteful selection of chintz-covered
chaises longues, jewel-hued Persian rugs, antique escritoires,
wind-up phonograms, leather-bound travelling cases, brass shooting
sticks, carved rocking chairs, and stud-backed smoking chairs.The
tent also incorporates a stained-glass and mahogany Edwardian
bar and a stone flagged, khaki-and-canvas ‘Sun downer’
terrace looking out over gently sloping acacia groves towards
the lilac-grey hills and lion-gold plains of the Serengeti’s
Western Corridor, scene of the thunderous theatre of the million-strong
wildebeest migration. As for camp views, from lilac-streaked sunrise
to diamond-domed night, the searingly sensational Serengeti delivers
a series of timeless volcanic vistas that are second to none.
Accommodation Facilities
The essentially colonial ambiance of the tented-rooms
evokes colourful memories of the famous safaris of days gone by,
when such romantic figures as Teddy Roosevelt and Edward, Prince
of Wales indulged in lavish East African shooting safaris of unrivalled
elegance. Each room has a personal valet and has been accommodated
in a spacious canvas tent, erected on raised platforms of rope-lashed
logs and sheltered by a bush-thatch roof. The décor is
a clever blend of classic opulence and camp practicality featuring
generous four-poster beds, hand-made patchwork quilts, steamer-trunk
wardrobes, brass lamps, sepia photographs and rosewood escritoires,
whilst to the rear of each tent is an elegant mahogany-panelled
bathroom with twin marble washstands, polished brass fittings
and classic black-and-white tiled Edwardian shower and lavatory.
