The hotel is ideally situated on the shore of beautiful Lake Kivu. The lake sits on the border of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo and comprises 1,040 square miles. The largest of the freshwater lakes in Rwanda, it empties into the Ruzizi River. Lake Kivu lies on the Albertine Rift making it part of the Great Rift Valley. Due to its position on the rift, it is slowly being pulled part causing volcanic activity as evidenced by the hot springs which ring the lake’s shores. This “exploding lake” is home to many species of fish including barbus, clarias, Nile tilapia, and Tanganyika sardine.
Walking safaris and hikes around the lake are the best way to get an up close and intimate look at the local flora and fauna. The hotel can also help arrange game drives for exploring the nearby national parks. Day trips can all be booked to go sightsee Empakai Crater. Moreover, the hotel is only an hour’s drive away from Volcanoes National Park and the famous mountain gorilla treks. While the lake itself offers exciting opportunities such as boating or fishing excursions. There are also cultural tours to visit local tribes to learn about their unique cultures and way of life. Guests may even choose to stay at the hotel and enjoy a game of volleyball or tennis on the beautiful hotel grounds.
The hotel has several different dining options. Kiyaga is the main restaurant on the property and serves up delicious meals and appetizing views out over the swimming pool towards the palm trees and white sandy beach of the lake. The restaurant is also known for its theme nights and beach parties held twice a year in July and December. The Ziwani Café has a wide selection of snacks and drinks to be enjoyed poolside. There is also a gym and massage services available for further relaxation and well-being.
