Run by the Maasai and with all profits going to the local Maasai community for social projects, Africa Amini Maasai Lodge blends western luxury accommodation with traditional Maasai food, architecture, and activities.

The sustainable bungalows have solar-powered light and hot water. Each is equipped with a side table, wardrobe, and Maasai-style seating. The modern bathroom includes a rain shower and flushing toilet.

Breakfast is served every morning and for lunch and dinner, the lodge prepares home cooked international and traditional Swahili cuisine, as well as Maasai specialties using fresh, organic ingredients grown on-site.
