Tsavo/Chyulu, Kenya

About Ol Donyo Lodge

Ol Donyo Lodge is located in the heart of the Mbirikani Group Ranch, nestled between the Tsavo and Chyulu Hills. The lodge is built from local lava rock and stone, designed to complement the volcanic landscape while providing luxury and comfort. Each suite features a private pool and a rooftop 'star bed,' allowing guests to sleep under the vast African sky. The wildlife experience here is unique, with views dominated by the towering silhouette of Mount Kilimanjaro. Guests can participate in horse riding, mountain biking, or tracking big game on foot. It is a place of rare beauty and deep quiet, where the focus remains on the interplay between the massive landscape and the wildlife that call this rugged, enchanting region home.

Why we like it

The views of Mount Kilimanjaro combined with the unique 'star bed' experience make staying here one of the most memorable and romantic safari experiences in Africa.
