Discover Lake Duluti Lodge

Located on the outskirts of Arusha town, Lake Duluti Lodge is made up of 19 contemporary African styled suites set within a 30-acre working coffee farm at the foot of scenic Mount Meru. Each chalet has a private deck from which to enjoy views of the coffee farm and ancient indigenous trees. After a long flight or at the end of a busy safari, this lodge is a quiet slice of serenity. The lodge aims to make you feel like you are staying at home rather than at a top end hotel. At the same time, you can expect fine cuisine, highly personalised service, and top-class amenities.

The spacious and romantic chalets are positioned for maximum privacy. All feature a small lounge, enormous bathtubs, and rain showers. The interiors are a unique marriage of African grandeur and modern design. The main lodge, set in the middle of idyllic gardens, has a library, gift shop, small spa and dining room. Using ingredients from the kitchen’s gardens, delicious meals are served in the polished dining room, but you can also opt for a light snack down by the lakeshore, which we highly recommend.  You can relax in the gardens with views of Lake Duluti in the background or dip your toes into the refreshing swimming pool. You may just be using the lodge as a stop-over but if you have the time there are tours of the coffee plantation or you can explore Lake Duluti by canoe, enjoy cultural tours, and go hiking, biking, horse riding or birdwatching.
