Surrounded by awe-inspiring landscapes of cloud-capped mountains and unquestionable beauty, you instantly feel the wild spirit of Africa at One&Only Gorilla's Nest.
Watch NowThere are only a handful of places in the world where you can see gorillas in their natural habitat, and one of these is Rwanda. And One&Only Gorilla's Nest is the ideal base to explore this country's wonders.
Situated on the foothills of the Virunga Mountains, this remarkable tree-house style resort is an intimate collection of 21 Luxury Lodges and Suites, expertly designed to complement this rich and historic setting. With local volcanic stone incorporated into the décor and traditional Rwandan geometric prints, the overall feel is one of elevated elegance and stately charm.
One&Only Gorilla's Nest is located at the foothills of the Virunga Mountains in Rwanda, East Africa.
Very! And when you book your African adventure through Out2Africa, we further ensure that your dream holiday goes off without a hitch.
One&Only Gorilla's Nest is an adventure-rich destination waiting to be explored. And with just under half of the world's mountain gorillas found here, Rwanda offers Africa's easiest and most accessible gorilla trekking experience and is the main reason adventure seekers and wildlife enthusiasts flock here.
Your entire experience here at One&Only Gorilla's Nest is also centred around wellness. Everything here is about connecting you to nature, from the resort's design to the fitness centre and meditation deck.
Club One is One&Only's award-winning, stand-alone spa where guests get to soak in sparkling infinity pools or indulge in treatments inspired by ancient African remedies.
Whether it's open-air yoga, cycling and running in the forest, mindfulness meditation, core and stretch classes, or holistic therapies like reiki, healing crystals and chakra alignment, comprehensive physical and mental wellness is synonymous with a stay here.
And if none of that is for you, just some quiet time spent in their sauna is an excellent end to any day.
The best time for gorilla trekking is during the dry months, from June to September & between January and February.
Our fabulous Out2Africa guests rarely experience the gorillas in isolation as this destination is perfect to combine with either Kenya or Tanzania or even Botswana, Zimbabwe or South Africa.
However, there's more to Rwanda than just the gorillas. It's also home to the primate-filled Nyungwe Forest National Park, where there are chimpanzees and incredible bird-watching opportunities, and a stay at One&Only's Nyungwe House is a must.
