One of only a handful of lodges set deep inside Amboseli National Park itself, with chalet-style rooms positioned for uninterrupted views across the wetlands to Mount Kilimanjaro.
A long-established first-class lodge in the heart of Amboseli National Park at the foot of Kilimanjaro. The chalet rooms each have a private terrace facing the swamps or the mountain, with shaded gardens and viewing decks frequented by resident elephants. Being inside the park means game drives begin the moment you step out.
Flying in
The nearest airstrip is Amboseli airstrip, about 10 min by road from the lodge. See the real fly-in routes and how the rest of the region connects on the Getting Around map.
