A Peaceful Lodge Near Amboseli National Park

guests can relax between excursions into Amboseli.

Amboseli National Park is famous for its large elephant herds, varied
birdlife, open plains and views of Mount Kilimanjaro when the weather is
clear. Game drives allow visitors to explore its swamps and savannah
habitats with opportunities to observe wildlife in its natural environment.
Sightings and mountain visibility are not guaranteed.

Spacious Cottages and Comfortable Rooms

The lodge has 83 guest rooms arranged in rustic cottages throughout its
gardens. Rooms feature Maasai-themed wall murals and private verandas,
offering guests an inviting place to unwind after a day of safari
activities.

two queen beds, selected interconnecting rooms and a honeymoon suite.
A two-bedroom Presidential Suite offers additional space, a lounge,
private dining room, kitchenette and a large veranda.

For families and groups:
Ask about interconnecting rooms and triple occupancy when making a
reservation. Accessible room arrangements should also be confirmed
for guests who require them.

Discover Amboseli

Wildlife, Birdlife and Kilimanjaro Views

Amboseli’s diverse habitats support elephants, buffaloes, zebras,
giraffes, antelopes and numerous bird species. Depending on the season
and conditions, a game drive may also reveal predators and other
fascinating wildlife.

Mount Kilimanjaro creates an impressive backdrop to the wider Amboseli
landscape. Clear mornings can offer particularly rewarding views, while
the park’s wetlands attract wildlife and waterbirds throughout the year.

The lodge’s landscaped gardens and mature trees provide a different
atmosphere from a camp located inside the national park. Plan your
game drives around the park’s access arrangements and your chosen
safari itinerary.
