Set in Rwanda’s northwestern reaches, right on the edge of Volcanoes National Park, Singita Kwitonda Lodge’s unparalleled position puts life-changing gorilla-trekking experiences within easy reach. Affectionately known as “The land of a Thousand Hills”, this tiny country in the heart of the continent offers a range of other attractions too, and unspoilt forests, lush meadows, picture-perfect lakes and the vibrant streets of the capital Kigali all contribute to the increasing demand for Rwanda on East African itineraries.
Singita Kataza House is set within a landscape of wetlands and lush meadows with magnificent views of the Sabyinyo, Gahinga and Muhabura volcanoes. This exclusive-use four-bedroom villa (sleeps 8) features two spacious suites, a junior master suite and a lavish master suite, indoor baths and showers, indoor and outdoor fireplaces, informal living and dining areas, an interactive kitchen, covered veranda, heated plunge pools, cinema room, massage treatment room, fitness centre and small cellar. While completely private guests at Kataza House enjoy access to all facilities and amenities at the Singita Kwitonda Lodge, which offers additional spaces for convivial relaxing, entertaining and dining.
A two-bedroom suite (sleeps 4) with two identical bedrooms featuring indoor baths, indoor and outdoor showers, in-room massage areas and dressing rooms, large timber-framed windows that welcome the breathtaking scenery and volcano views inside. Elements like woven ceilings and hand-fired terracotta brickwork crafted by local artisans highlight the authentic East African appeal of this remarkable lodge. The suite offers indoor and outdoor fireplaces, a more spacious sitting/rest area, a mini bar, covered veranda and a heated plunge pool.

Singita Volcanoes National Park’s farm-to-table vegetable garden is a joy to behold, and filled with the freshest Rwandan flavours. Inspiring the healthy dishes on our mouthwatering menus, the crops provide a visual feast – with everything from bright carrots to crisp green rocket catching the eye and tantalising taste buds.
Further raising the bar on sustainable luxury ecotourism, Kwitonda’s farm-to-table food journey celebrates Rwandese cuisine and fresh produce from the on-site garden.
Perfect space for friends and families to gather at the end of the day and chat about the incredible adventure they find themselves on. All drinks at the bar are complimentary including premium wines, spirits and liqueurs, but excluding French Champagne - that's too special to give away.
