Il Ngwesi Eco-Lodge
Owned and run by the Maasai community
Il Ngwesi Eco-Lodge is more than just a place to stay; it is a testament to the Maasai community’s dedication to conservation and sustainable tourism. The revenue generated from the lodge directly supports local projects, including education, healthcare, and wildlife conservation initiatives. Guests have the unique opportunity to see firsthand how their visit contributes to the well-being of the local community and the preservation of Kenya’s rich biodiversity.
Exquisite Accommodation Amidst Nature
The lodge features six beautifully designed thatched bandas (traditional cottages), each carefully constructed to blend harmoniously with the natural landscape. These open-plan structures are built on stilts, incorporating large tree branches and locally sourced materials to create a rustic yet elegant aesthetic. The design allows guests to experience the raw beauty of the surrounding wilderness while enjoying modern comforts.
Star Beds: Sleeping Under the African Sky
Two of the bandas offer a unique experience with ‘star beds’—cozy, mobile beds that can be rolled out onto private decks for an unforgettable night under the vast African sky. Imagine falling asleep to the soothing sounds of nocturnal wildlife and waking up to a breathtaking sunrise over the savannah. This one-of-a-kind feature makes Il Ngwesi Eco-Lodge an extraordinary place to reconnect with nature in its purest form.
Spacious and Open-Air Amenities
Each banda is equipped with a spacious bedroom, a private verandah, and an open-air bathroom, providing guests with both privacy and an immersive outdoor experience. The bathrooms, featuring solar-heated showers, are designed to offer comfort while maintaining a close connection to nature. The lodge’s commitment to sustainability is evident in every detail, from the eco-friendly construction materials to the use of solar energy for lighting and hot water.
