“ This is the BEST lodge in Tanzania by far. It would be a great place for a honeymoon or very small destination wedding. The staff is great! It has been open for about 10 months now. You have an outside shower, a high patio with a swing on the patio. I absolutely love it! ” Shane Penn

“ Had the most incredible time here! The staff was fantastic - friendly, patient, kind and excellent! The food is to die for - best meals I've had on my African trip! The rooms are spacious and no detail is left unattended! Flower petals on the bed greet you along with a personalized letter. Chocolates at night at turn down. The deck is the most relaxing place to spend an afternoon listening to the birds. I cannot say enough about how much I love this place. I am counting the days until I can get back here! ” Buddy Kinder

“ I had the opportunity to stay at the lodge for a couple nights on my recent trip to Tanzania. The staff was very welcoming and eager to please. The food was very good and visually appealing, and the chef accommodated our specific dietary needs. The rooms are as you see in the pictures are clean, beautiful, comfortable with gorgeous views, and it is VERY safe. Unfortunately our stay was sooo short and we did not have the opportunity to take advantage of the amenities it offers like the gym and swimming pool. I definitely feel confident recommending this Lodge. ” Fannym Montero

Activities & Excursions

Whilst a short one night stay is spectacular, it is recommended staying at the lodge for 2 or 3 nights in order to appreciate the luxury, activities and the surrounding area.

Village Walks

The village walk starts from the Lodge gates towards the village of Kibuweni - this is about a 20 to 30 minute walk. During the walk you will be introduced to the surrounding area by stopping at the main bore hole where villagers get their daily water supplies, a sunflower plantation and a dried river bed. This is home to many different types of animals and plants - many of these plants are used in local medication. You will pass a local farm that has livestock with which you can interact with whilst on the walk.

Nature Walk

The Nature trail starts at the north end of the Lodge through a dense forest. It is a great opportunity to learn about the plants, birds, small mammals and herbal medication with our resident Naturalist and Massai Warrior.

LANGUAGE LESSONS

The Swahili phrase ‘HAKUNA MATATA’ meaning (No Troubles) was made famous by the Lion King Disney movie. Learn basic Swahili words with our resident teacher, who will give you a one on one lesson every evening at the poolside.
