Grumeti River Lodge
The property
Ten suites following the bow of the Grumeti in the quiet west, plunge pools, a rim-flow pool over the hippos, closest to the Ruwana predator action.
Built to touch the earth lightly, following the natural bow of the river and echoing the circular forms of a Maasai manyatta. Ten suites with private plunge pools; interiors in Kitenge fabric and stone, a palette drawn from hippo-hide greys and the fishing colours of nearby Lake Victoria. The rim-flow pool looks over seasonal hippo pools, and being the closest lodge to the Ruwana Plains means the fastest reach to the west’s legendary predators and the Grumeti crossings.
