Your stay at the Serengeti Resort has the power to protect. Taronga is not-for-profit, with every dollar reinvested into wildlife conservation, education and the protection of animals in the wild. Every time you visit, donate or stay overnight, you're saving wildlife, including breeding and releasing over 60,000 threatened animals back into the wild, like the Greater Bilby, and caring for hundreds of animals at our Wildlife Hospitals every year.

Nature isn’t just something you see—it’s something you feel.
Overlooking sweeping grassland habitats, the Serengeti Resort places you at the heart of a breathtaking natural landscape, where iconic African wildlife roams freely. From the graceful stride of giraffes to the powerful presence of rhinos, and eland, zebra, and blackbuck moving across the plains, every moment offers a connection to something truly extraordinary.
Guests are invited to immerse themselves in nature through a variety wildlife viewing areas located throughout the Resort. Whether you’re observing animals at close range or taking in the expansive vistas, the experience is both intimate and awe-inspiring.
As the day unfolds, the scenery transforms - from golden sunrises to a canvas of deep reds and purples at sunset. As night falls, the clear, unspoiled skies offer a spectacular display of stars—creating the perfect setting to relax, reflect, and reconnect.
Enjoy a-la-carte breakfast at Marifiki Restaurant, set against sweeping views of wildlife and perfectly positioned beside our infinity-edge pool. If you’d prefer to stay in your villa or cabin for breakfast you can order room service or grab a takeaway coffee and light snack to go before heading off on adventure for the day.
