“Luxury lodge with exclusive access to East African wilderness. Enjoy meals in the bush or on the terrace, a drink at the bar and sundowners from the hideout. Large rooms with pool, views and welcoming hospitality. A beautiful spot! ”

Hotel review

Ol Donyo Wuas is wonderfully remote and off the beaten track. It is set in 300,000 acres of open plains, rolling hills and overlooked by snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro. The camp consists of seven bush cottages built with local materials, some with an extra bedroom for families; central sitting and dining area, pool and waterhole. There are plenty of animals but don't become impatient to have it all on a plate - this is a wilderness area with one guest per 2000 acres.
