This sustainable, boutique lodge offers a natural and beautifully designed environment in which to explore and educate guests about the Simien Mountains. With fourteen rooms scattered amongst the trees surrounding the main lodge, they are interwoven with winding paths. Comfortable and light, with huge windows to allow the impact of the epic mountain views to take centre stage, they have private bathrooms and king-sized beds. The kitchen prides itself on serving some of Ethiopia’s best food mixed with international cuisine. Dining takes place in the restaurant or on the terrace around an open fire, with sightings of eagles, vultures and gelada monkeys common in the surrounding trees.
Electricity is provided as much as possible through renewable sources and solar is used to supplement hot water heating.
Working towards replacing the non-native species of trees (largely eucalyptus) with native species that are slower growing, use less water, allow other species to thrive and provide inviting habitats for wildlife.
A stay at Limalimo is a memorable experience, engage with the local community further and take part in aspects of daily life in a rural Ethiopian village. Witness the traditional Ethiopian coffee ceremony and taste local cuisine, experience farming, beekeeping and beer making. Allowing a deeper understanding of the benefits the lodge can provide to such remote villages and thrive on the cultural connections, intimate opportunities such as this can bestow.
