Mountain Village, Arusha
Secreted in the depths of a tree-shaded coffee plantation,
wreathed in multi-colored tresses of tumbling bougainvillea,
cooled by mountain streams and strung like a necklace around the
shores of an idyllic wooded lake, Mountain Village offers a
haven of calm and serenity just outside the hustle and bustle of
Arusha, Tanzania’s premier ‘Safari Town’.
Set in the flowered gardens of a coffee planter’s farm house
and surrounded by rolling groves of wax-green coffee bushes,
Mountain Village offers wide timbered decks with panoramic views
over Lake Duluti, and a selection of ethnically-styled
‘Rondavel’ village-cluster rooms, each one neatly thatched with
‘Makuti’ stems, lavishly embellished with ‘Makonde’ carvings and
comfortably furnished in traditional safari style

Rooms
The stone-built rooms are housed in a half-moon of
traditional ‘rondavel’ circular dwellings with views
over a bougainvillea-cloaked slope descending to the
lake’s shores. Each ‘rondavel’, neatly thatched in
‘Makuti’ stems and lined with close-weave basketwork,
has been arranged to cluster in a village-style
grouping around the shade of an ancient forest tree
whilst the lavishly ‘Makonde’ carved doors radiate off
the cool of a central flowered courtyard.
Charmingly appointed with spacious bathrooms,
individual verandas and curved French windows giving
views onto the tranquil lakeside beauty, the rooms
have been decorated in the traditional safari style
and feature net-draped beds, soft lamps, intricately
carved furniture and pastel-patterned drapes. At the
end of an action-packed day, guests can also take in a
stroll around the flowered gardens, watch flights of
snow-white egret returning to their forest roosts,
explore the lake by canoe or follow the nature trail
that loops around the lake and into the groves of
neighboring coffee estates.
Dining
The dining room overlooks the lake’s flower-fringed
slopes and features an open-air bar area, a relaxed
candlelit atmosphere and menu choices that include
traditional safari favorites and internationally
themed menus alike.
