A private retreat in one of Africa's most remote and historical corners, Rusinga Island Lodge nestles on Rusinga Island, in the legendary Lake Victoria - the world's second largest freshwater lake and destination of many intrepid 19th century explorers - in Western Kenya.
Rusinga Island Lodge is 80 miles due west of the famous Maasai Mara Game Reserve and 35 minutes chartered flight will take you to this secluded Lodge.
With the pristine high-thatched roofs, spacious verandahs overlooking lush gardens and the sparkling waters of Lake Victoria beyond, Rusinga's accommodation comprises six self-contained cottages plus a family cottage with twin room and double room with an interconnecting door.
Bedrooms are either double (with a king size bed) or twin (with two queen size beds) with a living area and dressing area.
Over sized, en-suite bathrooms have double basins and walk-in, 'soup-plate' showers.
Combining intimate charm and privacy with the highest level of personal comfort, the cottages are crafted from local materials.
