The lodge is located exactly halfway between Kilimanjaro airport and Arusha town, roughly one kilometer from the main road, in a unique protected area.

It is established on a property of seven hectares and fenced on its outer perimeters.
In the gorgeous gardens, you can observe dik-diks, monkeys, and a large number of bird species. The lodge benefits from the view of the Kilimanjaro and the Mount Meru.

LODGE

On a former coffee plantation surrounded by lush, magnificent gardens, Ameru features an inviting lounge and a large terrace with a wonderful view of Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru.

The 31 chalets, junior suites, and family rooms are located in individual bungalows spread across the large tropical estate. The beautifully landscaped swimming pool is also located here.
In the main area, there is the lobby (free Wifi) with a fireplace, bar, garden terrace, and a large restaurant with outdoor seating on the terrace.

THE ROOMS

Arumeru offers 20 spacious Garden Chalets and 6 Junior Suites with either twin or double beds. Each room can be converted into a Triple room (Sofa bed) and two rooms are connecting rooms.

The decor of all rooms fits into the lodge theme with rustic-smart interiors, traditional beds, mosquito nets, fans, a kettle for coffee and tea, a telephone, and en-suite bathrooms with showers.

PUBLIC AREAS

The imposing main house of the former coffee farm is covered with a traditional makuti roof and is divided on different levels into a lobby, a cozy lounge, and a large restaurant.

A cozy meeting place during the day and in the evening is the bar and the open fireplace in the spacious lounge area.

SWIMMING POOL & GARDENS

The lush and extensive gardens impress with a species-rich tree population.

A swimming pool with sun beds, sun terrace, and bathhouse (toilets, changing rooms, showers) offers refreshment after eventful excursions.
Soothing massages are offered in the small massage room.

ECO FRIENDLY

We are giving back to nature... Many aspects of our services, lodges, and camps have a light CO² footprint. By the end of 2020, the lodge owners are planning to be "plastic bottle free". The water served for meals and in the rooms will be then produced by the latest filtering technologies.

A part of the hot water is already produced by solar water heaters.
During 2020, Arumeru will receive its first PV solar panels (30 KWp), to produce CO² free electricity.
