Marera Valley Lodge is on the outskirts of Karatu town, about midway between Lake Manyara and Ngorongoro Crater, and close to the main road. It is part of the Bougainvillea Group of Lodges.
The 28 cottages have a private deck or veranda, a fireplace, mosquito nets and a tea and coffee station. Rooms come as double, triple and family, and some interconnect. Hot water is solar.
The main building has a bar and lounge with a fire for cooler months, a large dining room, and a verandah over the pool. The kitchen cooks with produce from the lodge's own garden and nearby farms. The Rosemary Spa sits in a quiet corner of the garden, and there is a campfire in the evening.
