Six elegant, tented suites sit along the shores of Lake Rwanyakazinga. The central area features a plush lounge, bar, dining space, swimming pool, and a large viewing deck with a warm firepit. The design and décor celebrate Rwanda’s cultural heritage.

Meals at Magashi focus on sustainable, locally inspired dishes. The menu highlights Rwanda’s traditional ingredients and fresh, local produce, including the signature "Rolex" breakfast wrap and a Kugisha dinner, served alongside Rwandan tales and music.

With 11 unique habitats, Akagera National Park is a game-viewing paradise. The open plains support a thriving lion population. Elephants and hippos linger in the lakes and swamps, while Masai giraffes roam the woodlands.
