Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge is a 22-bed multi-lodge destination located on the slopes of the Chyulu Hills near Amboseli National Park. Based on the foundations of the original, legendary Ol Donyo Wuas, the recently re-built lodges all have stunning views of Mount Kilimanjaro, efficient solar powered lighting, and solar heated showers in the en-suite bathrooms, and feature a décor that is modern and luxurious, as well as rustic and comfortable in the tradition of the great wilderness lodges.
Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge lies in the foothills of the Chyulu Range on the Mbirikani Group Ranch, a 275,000-acre Masai-owned ranch that is located between the Amboseli, Chyulu, Tsavo and Kilimanjaro National Parks. The Lodge nestles in the western foothills of the Chyulu range, overlooking Kilimanjaro with quintessential Africa in the foreground, flat top acacia trees and golden savannah.
Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge has a total of 22 beds in seven stand alone lodges. Some are two-bed lodges, while others are four-bed lodges with their own private lounges and swimming pool. These four bed lodges are perfect for families or small groups of friends who prefer that extra privacy. All Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge bedrooms now have spacious en-suite bathrooms with superb views, a shower and bath, twin vanities, a flush loo with an additional outdoor shower for those who prefer the outdoors.
All Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge rooms (except for the Hide) have their own rooftop sundowner / "star-beds" spot where guests enjoy dramatic views over the plains and onto Mount Kilimanjaro. More adventurous guests have the option to sleep out safely on these rooftops to enjoy a night spent under the stars. The lighting is solar powered as is the hot water of the showers, with an emergency back-up system for overcast days.
Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge living and dining area has been rebuilt and it has a whole new feel and character to it, without losing its home-like atmosphere. The dining room has been extended and now includes an outdoor brunch area under the acacia tree. The main pool is available for relaxing in the afternoons.
