African View Lodge
- near Arusha National Park
- 550 km2
Lying at the foot of Mount Meru with stunning views of the mountain and nestled in the small village of Ngongongare, you will find our African View Lodge. Located a good half hour drive from Kilimanjaro International Airport and, likewise from Arusha town, our lodge is the perfect base to start your climbing trips to Mount Meru (4566 m) and Kilimanjaro (5895 m) as well as for safaris.
This charming little lodge has 23 en-suite rooms with breathtaking views of Mount Meru. The reception, dining room and bungalows have been designed using local materials including Meru-styled ceilings which are covered with banana leaves.
The tropical garden with its infinity swimming pool as centrepiece offers a cooling plunge, especially during the hot months. In the evenings, whilst enjoying a sundowner on our “Meru View platform” to round off the day, our chefs will be busy preparing tasty meals made with fresh ingredients straight from the markets. We look forward to hosting you in our own little piece of paradise.
