Cottages & Bandas
Stay
No two rooms at Warujojo are alike and none of them are called “Room 4”.
Wild Camping
Camp Above the Wild
For a more immersive stay, tents can be set up in some of the lodge’s best viewpoints, placing you closer to the landscape and the quiet of the wild.
- Private tent setups in carefully selected scenic locations
- Wake to sweeping views across Queen Elizabeth National Park
- Enjoy sunrise, open skies and the sounds of the bush
- A simple, intimate way to experience the ridge after dark
A sense of place
Named, not numbered
Every room, its own story
Each cottage and banda carries its own name on an engraved plaque and its own character inside, with hand-picked textiles, beds beneath mosquito-net canopies suspended from the ceiling like clouds above the savanna, and bathrooms crafted from river stone, flagstone and terracotta. What they share is an en-suite bathroom, a veranda and the quiet of the ridge.

Calm and generous, Amina is crowned by one of the finest bathrooms on the property, with a clawfoot tub set against river stone and a hand-painted basin on its own sculpted pedestal.
