STUNNING SURROUNDING RAINFOREST
Environmental awareness meets complete comfort at this enticing eco-lodge. Great care has been taken to respect the natural environment, including the stunning surrounding rainforest which was carefully preserved during throughout the construction process. Inside, natural lighting and recycled local materials help Te Waoniu to feel very much a part of its surroundings.
The rooms make for charming sanctuaries with their ensuite bathrooms, plush bedding and private balconies opening onto the enchanting rainforest. In fact, the forest here is so dense that guests are afforded plenty of privacy. When not enjoying the great outdoors on rock climbing or kayaking excursions, Te Waonui is a great place to unwind and disconnect from the bustle of the modern world. Enjoy dining among the treetops at The Canopy Restaurant, lazing by the fire in the lounge bar, and soothing spa treatments enveloped by calming forest views.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
