September 8, 2021Ol Donyo Lodge is honed from the ancient lava rock that spewed out of Kilimanjaro 360,000 years ago, creating a timelessness that touches everyone who visits us. At Ol Donyo your tourism dollars make a big difference to the surrounding community.
On the slopes of the volcanic Chyulu Hills, Ol Donyo Lodge offers unparalleled views of Mount Kilimanjaro and the vast open plains of the 125,000-acre Mbirikani Group Ranch between the Tsavo East and Amboseli National Parks. Originally built in 1987 by the bush pilot and conservationist Richard Bonham, the lodge was transformed into an exclusive safari destination in 2008. Each suites rooftop terrace offers guests the opportunity to sleep under the stars in their private star beds or relax in their private plunge pool enjoying the views of Mount Kilimanjaro and the waterhole below in the tranquillity of the Kenyan bush. Explore the wilderness on day and night game drives, on a guided bush walk, on horseback or mountain bike through the Chyulu Hills, ending your day with a sundowner watching the sunset behind the highest free-standing mountain in the world.
Ol Donyo Lodge can accommodate a maximum of 16 guests sharing in seven suites offering private pools, outdoor “star-beds”, and ensuite bathrooms, including outdoor showers.
