nothing! They are doing such a wonderful job!

What an absolutely wonderful time we have just had. I have stayed at so many lodges in Karatu over the years, but never had such a wonderful experience as at Foresight Eco Lodge. First, our car broke as we were driving up to the lodge. I called and they immediately came to help, towed my car all the way back the lodge and then helped find a mechanic to come up to the lodge and fix the car. They were so kind and helpful! On top of that, the experience at the lodge was absolutely wonderful - from the food (which was plentiful and very tasty) to an incredibly kind and helpful staff, to a beautiful property with views as far as the eye can see, to facilities that are thoughtfully laid out so that you feel quite comfortable. I just can't think of anything that would make it better. Except....what does make it better is that it is all done with the environment in mind, so that it is sustainable and careful to the environment and community around, AND they are very involved in the community around them, assisting with schools and generally being a productive and useful part of the community. If you get the chance.....I would highly recommend this lodge! I am already planning my next trip back in a few months time! Thank you all so much for all your help, and kindness! It was just superb! (the hot water bottles in the beds at night are such a lovely touch)

It would be good to have WiFi signal in the hut.

Thank you, Anita and Ernest, for the warm hospitality and genuine welcome at the lodge. Nestled amidst trees and flowers, the cozy hut provided a clean and comfortable stay, complete with a thoughtful touch like a warm water bottle in the evening. The delicious meals, presented with excellence, and the attentive staff added to the overall charm. The diverse range of activities, from visiting a local school to the awe-inspiring day safari in Serengeti, made my stay memorable. Looking forward to returning soon.

Beautiful grounds with fruit trees and flowers. Houses are great for staying out in the nature, we really felt like we’ve been outside all the time. Staff gave us the most happy and enthusiastic welcoming song. Campfire after dinner was a true safari moment. The team is young and the way they run the camp is amazing, very efficient and caring. Huge thanks to Irene, Lucien and others whose names we did not note. We’ll be back when next time in Karatu!

The only thing to consider when booking here is as it is a camping and lodge style place the rooms are not sealed, so at night bugs can enter your room and you might wake up with a couple bites.

The entirety of the lodge is situated on a hill side with immaculate views of the Ngorogoro forest and surrounding areas. Everyone who works on the property is extremely kind and gracious, and helpful in anyway, you could ask for. The food prepared for all meals was delicious, and they even made us lunches for our safari. Everything was exactly as described and I cannot recommend this place enough, I hope to come back one day.

The hot water device must be improved

A beautiful and quiet place far away from it all. Special mention to the staff for it's welcome and beautiful soul. Well equiped , our room was so nice, big and comfortable, good mattress and pillows and incredible views from the bed. We enjoyed a lot the food, good cocker and service.

Our stay at Foresight was memorable. We enjoyed the lodge facilities and the service, the staff members are passionate and caring, they made us feel at home since our arrival. We already look forward to come back and experience again the comfort of the accommodation and beauty of nature surrounding the lodge.

The best hotel we ever stayed at! Anita & Ernest honestly built a little paradise in the middle of the forest there. They were extremly helpful with planning our stay and organized two amazing safaris for us (Ngorogoro & Tarangire). The saff is incredible and everything feels like a big family. We would definitely come again!

Stayed in September 2023

The setting was beautiful especially the view and flower gardens where colorful birds flew around. Staff helped with planning our safaris including Ngorongoro crater. Our guide and driver Raphael shared our interest in birds and helped I’d them for us. The food was well prepared and tasty. Ernest scheduled our trips and shuttles. Walking around the village was interesting. Foresight has several programs to help the villagers including the cow program and building a school for the children. I highly recommend Foresight Eco lodge for the wonderful accommodations and staff and its big heart to help their village.

We stayed in the ‘tiny’ room. If we were to return, we would definitely upgrade to one of the larger bungalows. A little far from the town.

Exceptional service, delicious food (included in the price) lovely restaurant, lounging area

Magical place. We discovered Foresight after spending a few days in Zanzibar. We were already amazed but we had no idea what awaited us at Foresight ecolodge! This place is magical, after having passed green coffee plantations and having greeted the very welcoming inhabitants, you will arrive at the top of a hill and you will be welcomed by a wonderful team. Regarding the rooms, we started our stay with the Tiny room!!!! Wouaaaa a magical experience: sleeping inside while having your head in the stars. Our second night in the Peace room was more upscale in terms of comfort and just as charming. What makes this place unique in addition to these particularly bucolic dwellings is linked to the personal. First Anita and Ernest the two creators of this place will share their experience and the origins of this project which is very secret. After a day spent here you understand that the life of the lodge makes it possible to finance the education of the children of the surroundings, to meet the long-term needs of the surrounding families by offering them not only jobs but also cow breeding projects in which they can invest and find their independence. Then and not to forget! The rest of the staff. Will guide you according to your desires to discover the locals, the most beautiful safaris and all that while singing a music that will stay in your head until the return "jumbo!" »

when leaving we felt pushed by the personal to quickly get away.

Yes, we enjoyed the meals. They were really delicious.

Nothing! It was perfect!

Everything was amazing Beautiful treetop scenery and so quiet A rain shower overlooking the forest Lovely food and wine Friendly staff that made sure we had everything we need, including informing us that the hot water would take some time as they use solar panels Lots of female staff were working to enhance the lodge - just lovely to observe their keen, hardworking nature and they were always at hand! A perfect stay, we would love to come back soon !

Amazing hotel, lots of cute attentions and beautiful details. The view and the rooms are simply incredible, staff is nice and welcoming, quality of the food was above expectations. The hotel was really a crush for us.

Location with the views are great, very clean nice special rooms in a great setting around a hilltop. Very friendly staff and good food. Overall a place absolutely worthwhile to visit on a Tanzania trip, has a good vibe

The room we had was quite small. The road to the lodge is not well maintained, so it takes almost 30 minutes time to reach the resort in 4WD car. No place offered for the driver, so we lost some time each day as the driver had to go always back and forth to and from the city. The appetizers were weird and not tasty (e.g. avocado + tomato + half hard bolied egg + sour red berry sauce really is not good combination), meat was chewy.

Overall, the resort is nicely build, it has nice vibe, we liked the wooden pathway connecting the places. Fireplace has nice atmosphere, overall design is great. Very good tilapia fish for food. We loved hot bottle delivered for the night to keep us warm (otherwise it would be cold in the room). Good in-built charger.

Nothing! Everything was delightful.

We LOVED our stay at Foresight. The team couldn’t be more friendly and the food and location were stunning. The perfect rest after a week’s safari.

A bit expensive (eventhough all region is like that), sometimes we felt the high season vibes. As in other places, additional fee when paid by card.

Beautiful surroundings with flowers plants and trees, lots of care and well decorated, free teas, lots of birds and life around. Rafael Romeo Potamia George Ernest and all the staff very helpful and welcoming. Great food as well!

The only thing to improve is the food. Not much food choice and not super delicious, just ok.

Very welcoming, caring friendly sfaff, super picturesque location, amazing authentic design, nice room with comfortable bed, unlimited hot water, eco friendly, they provide guests with heating pads which was so surprising and sweet

It was tough to get hot water. I know they want to be efficient and use solar power, but on a cold day it was hard to try and comfortably shower in cold water! I like my hot showers. Also, boxed lunches for our day trips were disappointing! They cobbled together left-overs from the night before and for us vegetarians who are not egg lovers either, as they put in one boiled egg in the boxed lunch, left us with carb based lunch.

VIews from the tented room, size of the rooms, pleasant furnishings, dinners were great too. They offered hot water bottles for the beds as the rooms got cold in the evening. I also liked sitting around the fire pit particularly in the evenings as the sun went down and it got colder.

Staff extremly friendly and highly motivated. Good food. Site still under development. Even basic camping is possible. Observe access instructions by host and do not trust your GPS.

Stayed in June 2023

No wifi from the rooms. Too bad the drinks are not included for that price. Like all other accommodation in the region with a minimum of standard, it is far too expensive. It was very good overall, but it does not deserve such a price.

Very nice location in contact with nature, trees, flowers... Clean and comfy bedroom, however it was not arranged as in the photos and we had to move the furniture ourselves so that the bed faced the window/terrace. Very good point for the hot water bag placed at the foot of the bed in the evening. The food (dinner, breakfast and lunchbox) was good but not exceptional.

Stayed in June 2023

Very lovely lodge, everything is made with so much love. The owner and staff is beyond friendly and they make sure you really feel at home. They provide you with all the informations you need. In addition, we had the best dinner in Tanzania and everything exceeded our expectations.
