Singita Faru Faru Lodge is set in Grumeti in northern Tanzania, forming part of the Serengeti Mara ecosystem, along the banks of the Grumeti River. In true Singita style the lodge is hardly visible from the road.
Built on a gently sloping hill, this riverine lodge, positioned on the renowned migratory route, is a place where you can quite literally expect the unexpected.
It is so well disguised that you have no idea what to expect.
Singita Faru Faru Lodge is the most modern of three Singita Grumeti Reserves lodges.
Informal, unconventional and surprising at every turn, Singita Faru Faru Lodge is a mix of contemporary, organic style and the quirky practicality of a traditional botanist’s camp.
With such close proximity to the river and plains, guests have the unique opportunity to experience a very close connection with the wilderness.
Suites are spacious and they seem to breath by themselves, no doubt aided by the large electronic windows that open at the touch of a button (technology in the African bush is so much more impressive than technology in the city).
Singita Faru Faru Lodge décor is fresh and modern and it perfectly suits and amplifies the setting.
The food is sublime, the lodge is tranquil in that close-to-water kind of way, the spa is unbelievable – not because of its size but because of its location and its view – and then there is the feeling, the essence of the experience that is Singita Faru Faru Lodge.
It’s difficult to pinpoint exactly what this essence is but it is the reason that Singita Faru Faru Lodge makes a guest feel like a child being introduced to the magic that is the African bush, for the very first time.
The Singita wellness philosophy takes personal rejuvenation to a level well beyond any pampering you’ve previously experienced.
The spa offers a holistic and healing approach to treatments, allowing us to treat each guest with the individual attention they deserve.
The spa menu has been created to complement the beauty and tranquility of the wilderness, and all treatments incorporate that peace and vibrant energy to revitalize and nourish guests.
All skin care treatments are performed in the tranquility of the Spa therapy rooms using Dermalogica products, which are naturally fragranced and suitable for both men and women.
Body treatments such as massage, polishing scrubs and nourishing masks can be enjoyed in the comfort of guest suites, out on a private deck or at the spa.
