Original Maasai Lodge – Africa Amini Life is a unique, Maasai-owned lodge nestled on the slopes between Mount Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru, set within a 200-hectare Maasai nature reserve near Arusha. Comprising around 14–16 traditional Maasai-style bungalows (“bomas”) built with mud and grasses yet furnished to European standards, each is solar‑powered and features an en‑suite bathroom with a rain shower and hot water, plus a private terrace with sweeping views of the Maasai steppe and Kilimanjaro’s silhouette. Guests enjoy full‑board dining of international, Swahili and Maasai‑inspired cuisine made with organic garden ingredients, along with free cultural activities like spear‑throwing, herb walks, Maasai storytelling and evening dances around the campfire. Facilities include an infinity pool, pool bar, sauna, massage room and relaxation terraces ideal for sundowner views. All lodging and activity revenue supports local social, medical and educational projects run by Africa Amini Alama and staffed entirely by Maasai
