Lemala Kuria Hills Lodge

 

Lemala Kuria Hills Lodge is nestled in the secluded Wogakuria Hills of the Northern Serengeti, a picturesque region of grassy rolling hills, open woodlands, and tree-lined watercourses. This diverse habitat supports wildlife year-round. Located near the Mara River, close to the Serengeti’s border with Kenya’s Maasai Mara, the lodge lies within the primary corridor of the renowned wildebeest migration from July to October.

Our lodge offers unparalleled luxury and elegance, providing the perfect setting to either unwind in style or explore the Northern Serengeti’s exceptional wildlife with our expert guides in open 4×4 vehicles—without the usual crowds. The lodge is defined by large granite boulders and kopjes, with each of the 15 spacious, glass-fronted tented suites thoughtfully positioned among the rocks to ensure ultimate privacy and breathtaking views from their open decks. The suites feature a sophisticated, contemporary design, blending comfortable modern interiors with authentic African accents.

The lodge’s public spaces are centered around the stunning kopjes, offering sweeping views of the grasslands from the bar, lounge, dining areas, and the swimming pool. Dining options are plentiful, with delicious meals served either at the lodge or out in the bush. Guests can choose from a variety of starters, main courses, desserts, and house drinks. Afternoon tea is provided before game drives, while sunset cocktails are enjoyed atop a kopje, offering stunning views of the distant Isuria Escarpment in the Maasai Mara. For relaxation, the Melengali Spa, housed in a separate tent, provides indulgent massages and manicures in a serene natural environment.
