Its tranquil grounds and neighboring reserve are a haven for resident animals like zebras and monkeys, offering a peaceful and personal connection with the wild.
Nestled beneath the slopes of the majestic Mount Meru, the nearly 15,000-foot sibling to the renowned Kilimanjaro, lie the rolling foothills that house one of Tanzania’s largest working coffee plantations. Just outside the bustling town of Arusha, this area provides one of our most aromatic and delightful stopovers. Arusha Coffee Lodge is a luxurious sanctuary for quality rest, ideal for unwinding before or after the adventures of a Tanzanian safari. The lodge boasts gauze-draped four-poster beds, deep soaking baths, airy terraces, and plush furnishings as lush as the evergreen coffee plants covering the extensive grounds. Conveniently located just three miles from Arusha Airport, you’re always close to a dip in the pool, a restorative massage, or a rich cup of the finest coffee in town. Bean-to-cup has never felt so fabulous.
Individual luxury suites fan out from the main Lodge, which was originally the landowner’s home in the early 1900s. The atmosphere exudes authentic rural elegance, featuring polished wood floors, wicker sofas, and ceiling fans. Each split-level Plantation House boasts a spacious balcony and all the luxurious amenities you’d expect, including a coffee machine stocked with freshly ground local beans.
