Ol Donyo Lodge

Ol Donyo Lodge sits on a 275,000-acre Maasai conservancy at the foot of the Chyulu Hills, facing Kilimanjaro across a vast volcanic plain. The seven cottages and three houses each have a private plunge pool positioned to frame the Kilimanjaro view. The wildlife is exceptional — elephant, lion, cheetah, and giraffe move freely across the conservancy — and the absence of national park restrictions allows night drives, walking safaris, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The Maasai community partnership is genuine and guests can spend time with warriors on the plains. One of the finest addresses in Kenya.
