Room with a VIEW - Mypya Cottage Kenya

Mpya Cottage's views of snow-topped Mount Kilimanjaro are unobstructed—by windowpanes or even walls. A short flight from Nairobi via private charter places you among the thatched cottages of Ol Donyo Wuas Lodge, whose name means "Spotted Hills" in the Masai language. The property sits on a 300,000-acre spread, inhabited solely by wildlife and the Masai. The Big Five—elephants, Cape buffalo, rhinos, leopards, and lions—roam the land, along with more than 300 bird species. During the day, you too are free to roam the savanna, visiting local villages and following the animals via horseback or Land Rover. Back at the lodge, a candlelit dinner awaits under the stars, accompanied by the sound track of the African night.
