About Tiloreza Volcanoes Ecolodge

An eco-conscious base for gorilla adventures with genuine community spirit.
Perched on the edge of Rwanda's legendary Volcanoes National Park, this thoughtful ecolodge proves that sustainability and comfort aren't mutually exclusive. Rather refreshingly, the owners have ditched the usual eco-lodge hair shirt approach in favour of something far more sensible – genuine environmental stewardship with proper beds and decent food. Solar panels power the property (installed in 2024, because apparently saving the planet is fashionable again), whilst the complete elimination of plastic water bottles shows they're serious about their green credentials. The lodge's deep community ties aren't just marketing fluff either – they genuinely drive environmental and educational initiatives that benefit the local area.
From $190 per person/per night

Property details

The property

The lodge sits comfortably in its volcanic landscape without trying too hard to steal the show from the spectacular surroundings. The outdoor pool provides a welcome respite after dusty gorilla treks, whilst the restaurant serves up hearty cuisine that celebrates local ingredients and flavours. The property's lush gardens aren't just pretty – they're part of the lodge's commitment to supporting local biodiversity and providing habitats for the smaller (but no less important) wildlife that calls this area home.

The rooms

Accommodation ranges from wallet-friendly Standard Rooms that don't skimp on comfort, to spacious Suites with private porches perfect for morning coffee and evening reflections. The Deluxe Rooms strike the sweet spot – positioned steps from the pool and gardens with your choice of queen or twin beds. All rooms are designed with that rare combination of practicality and charm, ensuring you'll sleep well after your rainforest adventures without breaking the bank. The two-bedroom Suites offer extra space and privacy, ideal for families or friends travelling together who still want their own bathroom sanctuary.

Something to think about

Something to think about

This isn't a bells-and-whistles luxury resort. If you're expecting spa treatments and gourmet tasting menus, you might want to adjust expectations – though the genuine warmth and environmental conscience more than compensate.
