About Amboseli Serena Lodge

In the shadow of Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest mountain, besides a copse of giant Acacia trees and a gently flowing natural spring stands Amboseli Serena Lodge, one of Africa’s finest Lodges. With Kilimanjaro’s 6,000-meter-high snow-capped peaks presiding over the landscape, the scenery is picturesque.

All around the Amboseli Serena Lodge roam the big game that has made East Africa legendary – lions, buffalos, elephants, cheetahs, giraffes, baboons, gazelles and wildebeests. Amboseli National Park is a splendid place to view elephants. And without even leaving the lodge, one can encounter hundreds of species of wetland and migratory birds known to the immediate area.

Influenced by native architecture, the property is in perfect harmony with its environment. Interiors are inspired by distinctive African design motifs. Each room is individually appointed with authentic Africana and murals painted by a renowned local artist.
