EgyptReally every thing was more than perfect ,starts from the manger with his welcome hospitality ,all the staff , the doctor and the Masai men were perfect .
Egyptwithout doubt one of the greatest experiences,from its absolute jaw dropping location inside the serengeti with views from rooms,pool,restaurants across the plains the melia sets a high standard.the safari tours with guide joel were the highlights daily and the entire friendly staff were a pleasure to be around.it was sad to have to depart this location.
AustraliaThe hotel is pure 5 star luxury and really lived up to its photos and description. We enjoyed our stay very much apart from the problems experienced getting to the Migration (which we did see in the end though and it was absolutely fantastic!).
South AfricaEverything about the place was absolutely Great.:-)
TanzaniaMelia has a fantastic view of Serengeti! On the way to Melia, zebras, giraffes, elephants, and bunch of other herbivores are commonly seen. It's close to Seronera airstrip as well. Good choice of a luxury stay!
