The experience here isn’t so much an escape as a deep dive into one of Africa’s most biodiverse ecosystems. The highlight of a stay at Nyungwe House is the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to track chimpanzees through the ancient forests, encountering primates in their natural habitat.

One&Only Nyungwe House: A Rare Retreat in Rwanda's Rainforest
Surrounded by lush mountain landscapes, ancient rainforest, and a working tea plantation, One&Only Nyungwe House offers an unforgettable escape deep in the wilds of Rwanda. Located on the edge of Nyungwe National Park, one of Africa’s oldest and most biodiverse rainforests, the resort invites guests to experience nature in its purest form.
The accommodations are nestled within five wooden villa clusters that blend seamlessly into the treetop canopy. Each luxurious room and suite offers privacy, comfort, and sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness, making this a perfect hideaway for nature lovers and explorers.
Dining is a central part of the experience, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients guiding each dish. Meals are prepared to reflect your personal tastes, drawing from the rich culinary traditions of Rwanda and the wider African continent. Whether enjoyed indoors or out on the terrace overlooking the tea fields, every meal is a celebration of place.
Your stay includes a selection of beverages and two curated experiences each day. Join guided treks through the rainforest to encounter chimpanzees and monkeys, cross canopy walkways high above the forest floor, or explore the region’s unique flora and fauna.
At One&Only Nyungwe House, adventure, culture, and serenity meet in one of the most extraordinary settings on Earth.
