The original hotel dates back to the 1930s when flying boats en route from Durban to London used to make a stop on the lake for refuelling and refreshment. Sitting on 55 acres and just a little over an hour from Nairobi is located on the lakeside. There’s plenty to do with nature walks, bird watching as well as trips to Cresent Island which is a haven for zebra, wildebeest and giraffe. Lake Naivasha is famous for its large population of hippos and flamingos and with over 1,500 hippos in the area, you are almost guaranteed to see one. The lodge has all the space needed to relax and unwind, and there is a swimming pool, restaurant, bar and spa. The comfortable rooms all have Wi-Fi, a minibar, tea and coffee-making facilities, a safe and a patio. If time permits several excursions can be arranged from cruises on the lake to bird watching and nature walks. This is a great place to unwind from your travels before your safari adventures begin.

There is a swimming pool if you fancy a refreshing dip, spa, fitness centre and tennis courts. There’s also a bar, restaurant and gift shop.

Lake Naivasha is famous for its large population of hippos and flamingos and, with over 1,500 hippos in the area, you are almost guaranteed to see one. An interesting historical fact is that in the 1930’s flying boats en route from Durban to London used to make a stop on the lake for refuelling and refreshment, but we are not sure what the ancestors of today's hippos and flamingos made of their flying visit! The evenings can be cool here so do take a sweatshirt or light fleece.

This lodge is an architectural gem, tucked away in an ancient Bushman shelter, in the mysterious Matobo Hills. Surrounded by an impressive granite wilderness, this luxury camp, crafted into the side of a hill, spills out over a number of different levels. 9 secluded rock suites are uniquely designed with natural stone and thatch and feature comfortable furnishings. The suites are open to the surrounding wilderness, but offering full privacy, and are suitable for couples and families. Central areas imaginatively reflect the Matobo Hills UNESCO World Heritage Site and the spa and infinity pool overlook a scenic waterhole.  Amalinda Lodge offers not only a safari experience but also nature drives, rhino tracking by vehicle and on foot, visit Cecil John Rhodes grave, bicycle rides, cultural and village tours, walks and hikes around the lodge and exploring rock art sites. Much of the granite topography retains the remnants of bygone rituals; San Rock paintings and archaeological sites are proof of the passage of time, and a snapshot into a long-forgotten past.  Matobo Hills is the final resting place of Mzilikazi Khumalo, the first Ndebele king, as well Cecil John Rhodes. A varied habitat with mixed vegetation, the reserve is home to the rare leopard, raptors and excellent birdlife. Matobo Hills is a rhino breeding zone and on foot rhino tracking is a thrilling optional activity. *Amalinda Lodge has a number of steps and is not suitable for those with mobility challenges.

How our Tent Ratings work

​

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
