Recently recognised with a Travel+Leisure World’s Best Award for 2024, Arusha Coffee Lodge is nestled within a flourishing coffee plantation and seamlessly blends luxury with local charm. Located at the doorstep of Tanzania's most iconic National Parks, this 30-room lodge provides a tranquil retreat with breathtaking views of Mount Meru.

Guests can delve into the world of coffee production with guided tours or relax amidst the plantation’s serene ambiance. The lodge is also home to Shanga, a heartwarming social enterprise that employs people with disabilities to create beautiful, handcrafted jewellery, glassware, and textiles. Guests can also take part in activities like cultural tours, nature walks, and visits to Arusha city markets.

The lodge’s dining experience, now elevated under the expertise of executive chef Wesley Petersen and pastry chef Amie McNeice—both born and bred in South Africa with a combined experience of over 25 years in the hospitality industry—features innovative dishes crafted from fresh, local ingredients. Their passion for inspiring cuisine and dedication to mentoring young chefs, ensure a culinary experience that is as memorable as the surroundings.
