About the Property

Ruzizi Tented Lodge offers a spectacular waterside location on Lake Ihema, set within Akagera National Park. This intimate eco-lodge features nine tents discreetly nestled along the serene shores, blending into the natural surroundings with swaying palms and fig trees. Wooden walkways connect the tents to a thatched reception and dining area, leading to a deck raised over the lake. Designed to connect guests with nature, the lodge is solar-powered, incorporates natural elements in its structure, and showcases hand-crafted décor and furniture from local artisans.

Amenities

Food & Drink

Meals are served on a large boarded terrace overlooking Lake Ihema, creating a lovely alfresco atmosphere, especially with the central fire at dinner. Guests can enjoy local Rwandan delicacies such as sambaza (small fish) and urwagwa (banana beer), along with modern continental dishes. Breakfast is served early to accommodate morning activities and to coincide with the sunrise, as kingfishers and weaver birds animate the lake.
