Nestled in the misty foothills of the Virunga Massif, Sabyinyo embodies the true spirit of conservation and community. From its luxurious, community-inspired lodge and abundant organic gardens to its wildlife upliftment projects, every aspect reflects a commitment to sustainability. Among the highlights are Volcanoes National Park’s treasured mountain gorillas and playful golden monkeys, along with the region’s rich biodiversity. Accommodation at Sabyinyo offers a blend of elegance and comfort, with six charming stone cottages, two luxurious suites featuring king-size four-poster beds, and a spacious family unit with two separate bedrooms. Each cottage boasts a large sitting area, a cozy fireplace, stylish en-suite bathrooms, and a private veranda that frames breathtaking views of the volcanoes. Dining at Sabyinyo is a celebration of sustainability and flavor. Menus feature fresh, healthy dishes crafted from daily harvests of organic vegetables, blending traditional Rwandan recipes with a cosmopolitan twist.
