Singita Faru Faru Lodge
Singita Faru Faru Lodge sits along the tree-lined Grumeti River within Serengeti’s ecosystem, offering front-row access to one of Africa’s richest wildlife corridors
Faru Faru’s relaxed, contemporary style blends seamlessly with the riverine landscape, creating an inviting environment where nature is never out of sight. Guests are treated to exceptional game viewing year-round, with the Great Migration often unfolding directly from the lodge’s vantage points. The highlight of any stay is the effortless connection to the wilderness – whether watching elephants wander past the waterhole, joining expertly guided game drives, or soaking in the tranquillity of the river from your suite’s glass-framed views. Faru Faru delivers a rare balance of barefoot luxury, warm service, and deeply immersive safari experiences.
Contemporary organic design combined with Singita’s signature understated elegance
Influenced by botanical forms and riverbank textures, the architecture incorporates natural materials, soft curves, and expansive glass, creating a sense of openness and harmony with the surroundings. Originally designed to mirror a traditional botanical research camp, the lodge has since evolved into a refined, modern sanctuary while retaining its intimate, nature-centric character. Curated art, subtle earth tones, and layered textures evoke a grounded yet sophisticated atmosphere. Every space is purposefully crafted to frame river views, wildlife movement, and shifting Serengeti light, ensuring guests remain connected to the landscape from sunrise to nightfall.
Lodge facilities
Faru Faru offers nine suites that deliver understated luxury with panoramic windows, outdoor showers, private decks, and serene riverfront views. Spacious interiors feature contemporary African design, natural fibres, curated artwork, and calming neutral palettes. Guests enjoy two swimming pools overlooking the waterhole, a tranquil spa, well-equipped gym, and a central lounge designed for relaxation and wildlife observation. Dining is a highlight, with menus inspired by seasonal produce, paired with an exceptional wine collection from Singita’s award-winning cellar.
The surrounding riverine woodland attracts abundant wildlife, from giraffes and elephants to predators using the water as a natural pathway. With tailored game drives, walking safaris, and access to Singita’s conservation initiatives, the lodge offers a blend of comfort, exclusivity, and meaningful wilderness immersion.
