Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge

Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge — Plantation Luxury at the Gateway to the Northern Circuit

Elewana Arusha Coffee Lodge is one of Tanzania's most celebrated arrival and departure lodges — hidden among one of the country's largest coffee plantations on the outskirts of Arusha, just 3,281 feet from Arusha Airport. The lodge is operated by Elewana Collection, the same brand managing Serengeti Elewana Migration Camp, Elephant Pepper Camp, and the now-renamed Serengeti Explorer. In 2025-2026 reviews, guests describe the lodge as "exceptional," "one of the best ever," with "absolutely wonderful staff" and "the best breakfast of our 1-month Africa trip."

The accommodation is in Plantation Suites set among the coffee trees — cabins with wooden balconies, canopy beds, a step up to the sleeping platform, log fires and a large separate bathtub. Housekeeping decorates each room with flower blossoms on the bedspread, towels and bathroom countertop. The pillow menu and Egyptian cotton sheets reflect Elewana's 5-star commitment. The on-grounds experience includes coffee tours in the plantation, morning monkey sightings (vervet monkeys in the coffee trees), live music at the restaurant and al fresco garden dining spaces.
