Amarembo by Touch Down

Designed to provide an intimate lakeside experience, the lodge combines refined architecture with an unbroken connection to Rwanda’s tranquil landscapes. Each of its thoughtfully designed villas is oriented to capture sunrise across the water and is framed by mature trees that attract a remarkable variety of birdlife. From your private terrace, you can watch fishermen glide across the lake in the early dawn light, their traditional wooden canoes silhouetted against the horizon.

The property’s central lodge is a striking structure with high ceilings and expansive glass walls that invite the outdoors in. Dining here is a true highlight: menus change with the seasons and showcase produce from the fertile hills surrounding the lake. Whether you’re relaxing in the infinity pool or exploring the lodge’s network of garden paths, Amarembo has a rare sense of stillness that feels restorative.
